suv's are for bosses. and besides.. the x5 3.0 gets 17/23, that's not that bad. not even that far off the z's mileage

Yeah... Ok, bossman. LOL (Strange how I've only worked for one "boss" with an SUV)

Yeah, it is far off. I promise that the x5 isn't going to see 17 except on the freeway. LOL

I own a 2008 3.0 X5, best SUV out there IMO. I get 18mpg city and 22 MPG highway I drive at the speed of traffic. Its an SUV so I don't rev it. If you are gonna use the 3rd row most of the time, then get a Van or a Mercedes. I am 5'7' and I fit fine in the 3rd row but will only like to be there for 2h at the most. No long time journeys. Other than that will not change it for anything.
Go check x5world for more info.
