Am i the only person...
that goes off roading in my X5? I don't hear much of anyone else of people taking their X5 through knee deep mud, creeks, woods, ATV paths and stuff. Am i just the only looney one?

Yes.

Yes, the most off-roading mine sees is hitting the mulch bed going out of the driveway (sorry had to quote a beer commercial there)

Except the brush guard...I dented it up going through a deep puddle and up the lip on the other side of it....came down with my tires in ruts and my brush guard was dented on the middle mound. |

Doesn't exactly have the ground clearance for off-roading as I know it. |

I've done it a few times on the X3, and it holds up surprisingly well (better than I'd expected). Oddly, the ride doesn't seem that bad when I took it on a narrow dirt trail thru a forest, although admittedly I wasn't going faster than about 10mph.
There was this memorable time when I drove it up a steep trail to get to a scenic viewpoint. Right when the hill got real steep, there was a huge embedded rock on the left half and loose gravel on the right side, and I was preparing for the worst. Interestingly enough, X3 had did it, no sweat. |

i'll be sure to give you pictures then though. |
Well sort of, I've had it on the beach a couple of times and down many dirt roads and fields.
