New E70!
Hey guys, I wanted to introduce myself here. I just picked up an 11 xdrive50i this past weekend. I am excited to have this truck, I hope I don't end up regretting it due to repairs. I think I should be ok though.
Anyways, 87k on here, she wasnt to pricey.  I dont know what direction I am going to take this truck, but this is the baby mobile. I hope I dont screw it up to bad. |

Thanks, I have been driving it for 2 weeks now, and I really like this thing. I think (as long as whatever breaks on the 'truck' isn't to crazy) I may have made a good decision. We shall see as time goes on. I am not a fan of the way I understand this alternator to work. I wish I could change it so it charged all the time.

15mpg on the first tank all city. I just filled up again this weekend after running around, and 19.7mpg, the truck had a lot more highway in that tank. http://www.fuelly.com/car/bmw/x5/201...iend281/561524 The truck has also learned me, I am getting a bit higher RPM shifts now and holding gears just a little more. I think the PO was grandpa'ing around a lot. It will shift in the 2-3k range when I am driving now, vs the 1k-2k range I was seeing before.

Make sure you keep a few extra quarts of oil in the trunk, the 50i loves to drink oil

That's good and sounds pretty interesting as far as the adaptability goes to your driving style man
