I probably put my money in RRS6. High HP is useful on top end.
I am curious to find out in the real world number too. Though, I bought my '13 X5D as a tow vehicle and very happy with it so far.

Keep us post!

Cheers,

Diesels actually weigh closer to 5,500lbs, I weighed mine last night and it was 5,4xx with a 1/4 tank of fuel. I doubt anyone cares which is faster in the quarter mile it's unlikely anyone that buys either of those vehicles will ever take them to a track. Maybe do a 1/4mile run while towing a boat that would at least peak some interest.

???? quarter mile talk. Who is going to take those kind of cars to a track with
all the boys racers. A fraction. I've alway wondered why this is such a
big deal. So one is .5 faster or .3, who in the real world would notice.

Even Corvettes, just some older men who finally got the money and time to get
a car they wanted when a teen. I've driven them since high school and not that
big of deal. Now that older don't even what another one. Those forums are
definitely a measuring contest, even for that many would have to make a
md appointment.

So they all get in the forum and boast mine can do this or that. Big deal,
they might drive down to the local cruise in or out to eat. Again a fraction
of those car will see an actual track. ??? whether a second faster/slower
who is going to notice.

I follow forums to see what problems people are having and what fixes have
been found. Like all the carbon build up in diesel engines. Should people
trade when warranty up or roll the dice and keep it.
