USAF M6 Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 Picked up a 2011 X5 35d that's a little more winter friendly than the M6 in far Northern Wisconsin. Consistently get over 31 MPG on the highway and came with every possible option to include the sport package and cold weather package even though I bought it in Houston. 20" wheels with 315 tires in the rear are wider than the 305's on the M6 even. Great X and feels good to drive one again. jockhater2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc43089 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Very nice. I am a big fan of the diesel BMWs. Can't go wrong with the fuel economy AND mega torque. USAF M6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungCR Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Ditch those wide wheels in the winter though! X5 diesels are tanks. USAF M6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jockhater2 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Only someone who cares about the fuel price sign in the gas station parking lot (not me btw).Well. I did some fuelly research. The average MPGs on a 2500HD Chevy with a Gas 6.0 is 15mpg. A newer durmax gets 15MPG also...But if you are smart and hate all that emissions garbage and get yourself a LB7. THen you would average 18city and 22 hwy. (that is what josh gets). A 7.3DI will get better MPGs than a 6.0, 6.4 or 6.7. Emissions ruins efficiency.
