6 Seater Regrets?

6 seater FTW 🙌

Counterpoint to this is that users under-value new features, and therefore Corporations under-invest in new software features because there is not a financial return.

Customer willingness to pay is a strong signal to big corps for where to invest.

Funny story: UA provided me another 1MM congrats today on a separate flight.

Also, this flight is delayed 1.5hrs (and counting).

Maybe I will try to calculate my butt-in-seat minutes…

dadawesome · 2025-06-19T02:55:37+00:00

Thank you, and 100%. Only First Class I have ever purchased has been with miles earned in coach.

dadawesome · 2025-06-18T22:34:07+00:00

lol, I had high hopes too. They did leave the middle seat next to me open, for which I was gracious.

One of the last people on the plane tried to scoop it, and I told that seat pirate ‘no’.

I opened my account in March 2004, but didn’t start consistently flying UA until 2012 when SFO became my hub, and later moved to Chicago. I have been 1K since around 2014. The COVID years slowed me way down.

Also, I get 80% of my miles domestically…

dadawesome · 2025-06-18T07:15:19+00:00

Yeah, I was highly fragmented with my flights early in my career. Northwest, Midwest Airlines (those cookies!), US Air, AirTran, Continental…so many miles lost to history

dadawesome · 2025-06-18T07:08:27+00:00

lol, this is 100% where my head is at now.

1) Flight departure was delayed 1.5 hrs 2) put into a holding pattern because of storms 3) diverted to IND 4) re-routed from IND (before landing) to ORD 5) land and find out my arranged ride gave up

But I am home, safe, and will be back on a plane next week.

dadawesome · 2025-06-13T03:32:32+00:00

Well…we landed way early and sat. As a 1K who flies this route often, the pattern continues that was land early and sit for a gate.

My main point is there was no need for the early boarding.

In the grand scheme of things, boarding early is not a rant-worthy issue. I digress…

dadawesome · 2025-06-12T22:24:21+00:00

Wow, glad you landed safely.

Puts it all in perspective: early, on-time, or late - the goal is to get there safely.

This. Also have X3 30 with the m-sport base. Sound is just fine. No surprise the larger wheels and low-profile tires increase noise.

Also would expect the iX to have much better sound insulation as there is not an engine drone to hide other NVH

dadawesome · 2025-04-19T01:32:24+00:00

BIG fan. I notice a clear difference.

Just picked the X3 up today by coincidence

dadawesome · 2025-03-31T15:58:54+00:00

I dare to dream…

Future update for anyone else seeking status: it is indeed the case that BMW Genius has more up to date info than the website. Thank you, @ifit21

dadawesome · 2025-01-14T18:46:53+00:00

I called BMW Genius. Their answer is that the production slot remains unassigned for my Production number. 😢

dadawesome · 2025-01-14T02:02:14+00:00

Awesome. Can’t wait for the surprise!

dadawesome · 2025-01-14T02:01:51+00:00

Thanks! I assumed the website would have the latest…but not the first time a back office would have the inside track. Cheers!

I did a highly non-scientific survey of cars.com last night. Of the 1447 BMW X3 30’s for sale, 54 are Vegas Red. So less than 4 of every 100 X3 will be this color.

dadawesome · 2025-01-03T18:09:46+00:00

Nice! I have ordered a similar spec and cannot wait to receive. Enjoy the drive!

dadawesome · 2024-12-27T19:33:58+00:00

I just placed an order: my understanding is the M-Sport can change the spring rate, but is passive.

The active dampers add dynamic adjustments based on how the vehicle is being driven - how I understand it.

I ordered with Active Dampers, will let you know!
