REKIII

The very first year I owned my BMW in 2007 I joined BMWCCA. I couldn't see the value. From the BMW side they just pushed the new models (which I get) and the Badger Bimmers seemed unwelcoming at best. Maybe things have changed?

Hi Leon! Definitely the furthest away local guy here! Pics of the X5?

Sure is. It looks like you have the piece already....

I think the Audi and Lexus Grilles are much nicer. The kidney grille concept/design just doesn't fit the gigantic proportions.

Ghost Ninja Post.

I see what is happening. Do we call him Jake, or Brian? You decide.

I have considered that on the truck...... Jeep is wife-mobile, she won't like that.

Pretty sure I drove past your place a couple weekends ago. Port, right? Went to Beanies for my moms b-day.

Yes....but obviously the life of my winters is more valuable to me.

Looking to get the Jeep Ceramic coated. I was going to go get a quote from CMG in cedarburg. Seems a bit high priced but the lifetime warranty is intriguing. Anyone have other suggestions?

Yes. Yes I am. I'm not nearly as well off as most of you here, so saving the tread and driving a bit slower in the unlikely event of a storm looks pretty good to me.

Well....50° is when winter tires start to get REALLY squishy and wear very fast. So....based on the forecast, you can either drive like a Grandma and still have bad wear, or you can risk maybe 1 or 2 days of crappy driving on your summers, on the outside chance we get a measurable snow fall.

I think it looks pretty cool. Been waffling on Steering wheels for the M and the lotus. Completely different cars, but the wheels still have similarity. Good deal on the barter too, not that you had to justify it in any way.

I shared it to the M5 groups (a lot of them want or have X5's as dailys). The general consensus on price wasn't good. I think you have kind of a unicorn which will require a unicorn buyer. The biggest complaint was that you aren't too far from X5M's. Granted mileage and condition are not comparable, but a good point. Do I think you are asking too much? No. Do I think it will be a hard sell? Yes.

That's what 2 of my 3 are. Just hope the salt is off the road!
