Just a bit tired of my tired (but still capable) 2011 BMW X5 35d. I love how it drives, the diesel X5 has a fantastic, beautiful motor, but it has 195k miles on it and I have some medical things going on and a full time job. The X5 has become an enthusiast project like my M5 has long ago. Too much time researching, making list lists, arranging for service or repairs, etc. I'm going to ship the X5 out west to the desert where it will store better than the terrible New England climate (and have a vehicle when I travel that way) and rely on the 4Runner, as I did the X5, now to get me out of my driveway at 0500 in the morning when everything is covered in snow and the plow has deposited a nice berm at the end of the driveway, but with a warranty. And if it gets really bad, my 2018 Ram 2500 has proven able to, also.
