Driving Style?
 

There was a thread today about mileage. I was just wondering what everybody's driving style was like. Some of those Xs have quite a few miles on the original tranny.

If you would be so kind as to post your mileage, original gearbox or not and driving style that would be great! :thumbup:

BTW I have 33k on an 05 4.4 with a highly agressive driving style, and as I would hope still the original gear box.

Its fun to drive aggressively.

Aggressive yes. Steptronic, occasionally.
Speed gear most of the time.
80-90 mph avg on in town hwy,
lots of passing, usu from the right lane.

2006 4.4, 18500mi, 6 speed Auto.

lol, i see alot of aggressive driving

'05 4.4, 29,000 miles and I always have to be the first out the gate :thumbup:

I don't know if I'd consider myself an aggressive driver, I do have a heavy foot. Let's call it spirited.

i'm TRYING to drive conservatively since the gas prices are skyrocketing here in Southern California. $3.35/gallon for 91 octane in an SUV with a 24 gallon tank is rediculous. Oh well. I still love my X5.

2001 4.4i, 69,999 miles

:zoom:

I'm always the first off the line and other vehicles rarely pass me on the highway. But, I have been trying to limit "flooring" it lately....(trying!)

when i have nowhere important to go, i'm the one doing 65 in the fast lane ;)

i always monitor the mpg gauge and drive accordingly to be the most fuel efficient ($3.50+ per gallon in san francisco :rolleyes:)

but there are a few times where i just enjoy the rush and power...who can blame me? :D

Aggressive, hate people who drive 55 in the passing lane, I love to use my horn on those people in the daytime at night they get the highbeams until they move lol!!! If I cared about the price of gas I would have bought a Echo.

Sometimes aggresive, but usually always fast!

I have learned that there are places to go fast, and places to take it easy.
On the highway (all two lane up here), I basically never get passed. Not that there is ever much traffic.

There is just something about a V8 at full throttle...

And if I really cared about the gas prices, I'd ride a bike. :rofl:
