There are several comments from people saying their X6 is far more comfortable than their X5
BMW tweaked the X6 for a different customer. Could be a weight balance issue or the weight of the active diff on the X6...? But yes, the X6 does ride the ruts marginally better than an X5 IMHO. I have driven 2 X6 5.0 an 09' and a 10' with 20 inch sport pack for a total of a week (same owner - good friend who totaled the 09').

Tell you what... I'll report back once the M performance X6 without AD comes in and I drive it a bit. I'll be able to compare it to the X5 since we'll have both for a week or two.
