The X5 is definitely not a cargo hauler for renovations, more along the lines of a grocery getter, the cargo space is limited. Nearly everything that was big we had to use my fiance's Rav4 to get (more top to bottom cargo space), save for most normal sized items, vanities, sinks, etc.


Anything thats long, trim pieces, molding, drywall, lumber, bulk lengths of wire shelving, you'll need a real pickup truck for. I'm actually considering selling my GLI and getting an old beater pickup just to be able to haul junk and not line my X5's cargo area with 4 or 5 towels/blankets to not make a mess in the inside of it.


However, I must say that a lovely X5 and a 4.6is as beasted as yours, will definitely look good in the Home Depot or Lowe's parking lot, make sure you park far away, those big carts like to ding doors of our cars.

And for 90% of what you'll be getting in HD, light fixtures, grass seed, shelving units, paint, hardware, you'll have plenty of room to take it home in style.

Very nice, did he leave the M3 Steering wheel on or was that taken off?
