You're the only one who keeps saying that everyone is pissed or overly protective of their BMW's, that you don't want an arm wrestle and then you continue the thread with nauseating "thank you" posts. No one cares that you did or didn't buy an MDX and no one cares that you like it better than an X5 and no one cares that do or don't like your ex- X5. You've been on this board for what amounts to a cup of coffee, and if you had been on here longer, you would realize that the X5 vs MDX topic has been beaten to death, unfortunately your ego won't let you see that because you're too caught up in attention whoring.

What are you trying to accomplish with this thread? You like your MDX better, great, good for you, enjoy it, it's a great car... is there anything else? Is there any part of the discussion or comparison that hasn't been beaten to death?

For the record, I ONLY post when others leave me a post because it would be rude not to...simple as that.

Your points are muddled with untruths...........
When did I ever start an "X5 vs MDX" debate? Never!
When did I ever engage in an "X5 vs MDX"? Never!
When did I ever compare the "X5 to MDX" Never!

You really need to look up the definition of passive aggressive. You started a thread on a BMW X5 board saying you're getting rid of your X5 and buying its most closely debated competitor. Are you really that clueless that you don't think that you're stirring the pot and instigating the X5 vs MDX debate all over again? GMAFB.

Dude if you met me in person you would see that there is absolutely no passive in my aggression. Now on to your question.......

Maybe I wrongly assumed that I WOULD NOT be stirring the pot as long as my comments were constructive. I still belong to the Mercedes and Lexus forums and have never witnessed this type of brand loyalty "my vehicle is better than yours behavior". Again, maybe I wrongly assumed....yeah and i know what happens when one assume.

The way I see it you have three options:
1. Ignore my threads because you are obviously taking the time to read them.
2. Ask the mods to boot me off even though I haven't violated any rules.
3. Send a mass email out to all your xoutpost buddies asking them to stop responding to my thread.

I will tell you what YOU WILL NOT Do and that is intimidate or run me off because although I have been trying my hardest to give respect where respect is due, I can run this thread in the sh!t hole real quick!

Like I said before, as long as folks are responding to this thread whether positive or negative, I will continue to respond back!

Dude... No one is pissed at you for leaving BMW. Please stop going back to that. Where have you seen the "my vehicle is better than yours" behavior? I haven't. Everyone is just trying to figure out why you posted this thread.

As much as I hate to do it, this thread is very close to becoming locked.

Michelle, the mods moved this thread to the "Off Topic" section so hopefully folks will be able to sleep more easily now that I am gone from the e70 section.

Anyway, the problem with this forum (and others like it) is sometimes posts are made so quickly it is almost impossible to follow all the comments that has been made. I am not sure when you started reading this thread but there are pages after pages after pages of people saying how superior the X5 is to the MDX and how the MDX is a crappy vehicle comparatively speaking. Hence why I made the "my vehicle is better than yours" comment. I am not vehicular insecure so it just rolled off my back as I am extremely happy with my decision to leave the 2009 X5 after two months of ownership for the 2010 MDX.

Its all good though.....I am happy, you are happy, and both are great vehicles!

FYI... I'm the Admin/Mod who moved it to the Lounge, where it belongs. And I'm also the one who just closed it.

Ok, I was wrong, you're not passive aggressive, you just have a learning disability, my bad.

No one is showing blind brand loyalty, how many people have congratulated you already on the MDX? I clearly have.

The point, and again, I'm going to ask you to pay attention, because you just don't seem to be getting the point:

The MDX vs X5 debate/comparison is beaten to death on here over and over and over.

We didn't need another thread or discussion about it.

And we surely don't need you to keep bumping it with your ridiculous "thanks dude!" replies. It's just that simple.


The fact that you've been here for 2 months are annoying is secondary and tertiary to the point above.

Got it now? Do you understand?

Now, please, for the love of God, leave it alone.
