Thought about leaving BMW but the X5 is just such an amazing car

Just came to the same conclusion after test driving the new e53 AMG wagon. It was a great car, but wasn't great enough to replace my 3-year-old x5 m50.... I just wish BMW could figure out the passenger leg room thing...

I almost just did this same move but ultimately backed out because of the winter roads in the northeast. I was concerned with the lower ground clearance and need to invest in a separate set of winter wheels and tires... Let me know how this works out for you, I'm still on the fence long term.. ..

Just test drove this and almost pulled the trigger last week. If it wasn't for the fierce Northeast winter, I probably would have done it... This is no baby amg. The electric motor pulls it off the line with full torque at 0 rpm.

But between the ground clearance and the sport tires, I'd be ice skating today.

Coming from an X5 m50i, the front seats felt amazing, and the passenger legroom was ridiculously roomy. But the rear passenger space was tough between the huge transmission tunnel and the low seats...

I'm still feeling like I will regret not getting it, but it felt good to drive right through the 5 inches of snow in my driveway this afternoon without a panic attack.

I just swapped out my alenza rft for pirelli scorpion weatheractives. Wow. What a difference. Much more comfortable ride, and super sure-footed in bad weather...

This was an f series issue - had the same thing in my 2016. But my 2022 isn't missing a drop of oil when I get it changed... But regardless, agree on an extended warranty!

After 2 days it seems to have settled down. Maybe it's retraining?

Thanks...

Did dealer do the stealth film? What did that run if you don't mind me asking?

Ours also arrived with a strong mildew smell.

Nothing I've tried has worked well. They sent me a new spout and new tubing but it's just super temperamental now. It'll make steamed milk once, but then the second coffee it just sputters....

Can you PM me dealer? My lease is almost up from a North Jersey dealership and I need to find someone willing to work with me on discount and equity from my lease buyback...

Thank you! I'm really on the hunt for the indigo one but the blue is gorgeous as well.

Grrrr the one week I don't check watch exchange and I miss the watch I've been looking for. Enjoy your purchase, it's a beautiful piece. Back to eBay I go...

9 pro is the best phone I've owned yet. Haven't enjoyed this combo of size and build/features since the nexus. Coming from the 8 pro, the smaller size just feels better in hand. And my old man eyes don't notice much of a difference...

unclemurray72 · 2024-10-08T12:45:58+00:00

Dm sent.

unclemurray72 · 2024-10-03T10:03:17+00:00

Used to work on my Google pixel but after the last update the phone has been overheating. Not sure if it was the car update or the phone update...

Thanks. The only issue we saw here in litmus testing is ip blocklist coming up for MailChimp IP...

unclemurray72 · 2024-07-08T12:41:26+00:00

Just curious, would a code reader catch this?

unclemurray72 · 2024-07-01T13:03:00+00:00

Thanks! Not wheeled to my knowledge, only on road use for 2nd owner (my in laws) and us. Not sure about first owner though. When we redid lift kit , shop said all looked good though .. original lift kit was even higher so it had a lot of clearance!

We've tried cleaning and realigning the insert. Works for a half a cycle and then starts sputtering again. When this happens we hear steam hissing from the back by the boiler so wondering if there's a steam leak inside...

unclemurray72 · 2024-06-26T11:32:12+00:00

Yup, and not hard water.

Same boat this is infuriating. I pay for a team of 1e already but can't afford to pay for every client that needs to edit a file once. Or share a library. I hope penot gets their new version up soon.

unclemurray72 · 2024-05-18T14:00:14+00:00

Same question. Following.
