Today, I commuted in the X5d... Oh wait, that's every day. I've done around 2k miles since the delete and tune, and I'm super pleased with the setup. Sounds no different from the inside, but crack the windows and you hear those turbos spooling! Wonderful noises! I spend the last 600mile tank driving pretty arrogantly, and I got 28.6 mpg. That's the exact best I ever got before the delete, babying it everywhere with cruise at 70mph. Now cruise is set to 75+, and I'm feeling the acceleration whenever I want to.

The best part is really the launch ability of the X5. Taking off from a brake boost, the old 255 wide winters that I bought the car with ride the struggle bus while trying to keep grip. I can feel the wandering of them playing at their limits, which is a pretty hilarious thing to feel in a 5k pound SUV.

I drive about 140 miles a day now, 100 for commuting and then 40 is round trip to my shop, where my drift car is finally almost back together again. Can't wait to use the X5 to tow it for the first time, it'll be a run to the tire shop for a quick alignment!
