I do not wish this was an X5m. I would never spend $85k on an SUV. I needed something diesel (mpg, especially when towing) comfortable, and it had to be an SUV (or else it would’ve been a Duramax which I could’ve gotten for much cheaper). Only the Europeans are mass-producing diesel SUVs. I HATE M-B, and the Audi Q7 really felt like shit compared to this driving and quality wise.

I’ve gotten 28mpg on backroads to Mass, but usually get around 22mpg city.
