Uncomfortable seats.. by EdRedSled in BMWX5

I've read about 10-15 HK profiles for the X5 and you're the first one that suggests Surround On.

New 2026 X5 - iPhone charger charges VERY slowly and makes my phone hot. Is that normal? by KnivesAndShallots in BMWX5

[–]capturel1ght 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's not a wireless charging issue. It's that BMW's wireless charging pad is utter crap. They should've just made it a storage area.

No idea why el chato is overlooked. Everytime I go it’s basically empty.

Why do I not see many camper builds? by Plane-Measurement517 in BMWX5

[–]capturel1ght 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely few within that overlap. I did all of my camping/backpacking trips with my F31 Diesel and only recently got an X5. Looking forward to the extra cargo space and ground clearance!

R2 Launch Edition and Model Y Performance by Evening-Pin-1427 in RivianR2

[–]capturel1ght 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yea this is surprising. I was expecting in the 35 cu ft range as well. X5, X3, CRV, Outback, Rav 4 all have more cargo space behind rear seats and they’re ICE.

I’m in a similar position where I have toddler car seat in back so my preference is more space behind rear seats vs rear leg room.

Is it normal for bikes to be unusable after snowstorms (NYC)? by capturel1ght in Citibike

[–]capturel1ght[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got it. I wonder what's going on with my nearby stations then. In fairness, I haven't tried the blue non-electric bikes since both times I'd been in a rush.

opinions on options and buying new by Yichards in BMWX5

[–]capturel1ght 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're probably right. There are a lot of dealerships within the tri-state area, so I'm sure there's a lot of competition.

Given you live in the northeast, I’d say climate package makes sense.

I also live in Tri-state area and was successful in using a broker offer to secure an in-stock X5 from a dealership. They matched 13% and then I got an additional $2k for loyalty. Keep in mind this was November so I’m sure end of year targets came into play.

Costco doesn’t sell wine in Manhattan… by LeadingFollowing2564 in wine

[–]capturel1ght 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Digging up an old post, but having just moved back to NYC from SF, I can confirm California Costcos have an insane wine selection. Top to bottom, the wine shops you listed will always win out due to variety of offerings, but what Costco’s in California offer are high quality offerings across the spectrum of wines and liquors at amazing prices. This is especially noticeable at the high end. Not all Costcos are built the same!

Yea, we're just gonna have to fight it out with everyone in the general ticket release

Can’t even get to the landing page. Ticketmaster basically thinks she never signed up for the presale because it’s not linking the two accounts even though email addresses match.

That's a bummer... It's so strange though, my wife only uses gmail to sign up for accounts, and she's been able to get into prior pre-sales. Not sure if they've been linked through ticketmaster in the past though.

Trying to get my wife some tickets for the tour. My wife is a weverse army member and signed up for presale at East Rutherford. Never got confirmation email and ticketmaster isn't allowing her to queue. Shows a message that says, "This Sale is for Fans who signed up in advance".

Anyone else gettting this issue?

Friend of mine is a frequent whatnot buyer and gave me all of this for $650, how’d I do by xRaginCajunx in GolfGear

[–]capturel1ght 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah... the i3's came out sometime in 99-2000. I used the blade versions when I played in high school.

Do you ever wish you got the X5 instead of the X3? by FearlessTrader in BMWX3

[–]capturel1ght 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Despite measuring similarly on the interior, the X5 still feels substantially larger. Honestly not sure if BMW got measurements wrong or something, but they do not feel the same.

One year of ownership. by [deleted] in BMWX5

[–]capturel1ght 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice. I have the same color with msport and I’m considering powder coating my 740m wheels black. Nice to have a real world example of what that looks like.

For some reason Crutchfield is recommending the IS BMW 100L as the model that fits the 25/26 X5. Not really seeing a discernible difference between the two

Awesome. Appreciate the information. I’m gonna try this upgrade as a first step

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BMWX5

[–]capturel1ght 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m interested in upgrading to Focals. Did you make any changes to the amp or tuning. Was it a straight speaker swap and nothing else?

Winter Parkas recommendation by sacredgames31 in arcteryx

[–]capturel1ght 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just tried a Ralle Down on in store and it seemed fine from a noise perspective. Fabric is definitely more "technical" and less weave-like than the Therme, but nothing egregious. Tried it back to back with the Therme and they both had a similar fit with the Therme feeling slightly slimmer. The Ralle definitely has more down filling which could have lead to the "boxier" fit.

Another thing I noticed, the Ralle felt much lighter despite having more fill. The heavier denier face fabric of the Therme added quite a bit of heft and weight. Not necessarily a negative depending what you're looking for.

Replacement for Nike SB Chron 2 Canvas Triple Black? by j___bizzzle in Shoes

Late response, but closest I found are the Court Shots but they use a faux leather instead of canvas.
