    Picked up a 2011 X5 35d that's a little more winter friendly than the M6 in far Northern Wisconsin.  Consistently get over 31 MPG on the highway and came with every possible option to include the sport package and cold weather package even though I bought it in Houston.  20" wheels with 315 tires in the rear are wider than the 305's on the M6 even.  Great X and feels good to drive one again.

      Very nice.  I am a big fan of the diesel BMWs.  Can't go wrong with the fuel economy AND mega torque.

        Ditch those wide wheels in the winter though! X5 diesels are tanks.

              Only someone who cares about the fuel price sign in the gas station parking lot (not me btw).

                Well. I did some fuelly research. The average MPGs on a 2500HD Chevy with a Gas 6.0 is 15mpg. A newer durmax gets 15MPG also...But if you are smart and hate all that emissions garbage and get yourself a LB7. THen you would average 18city and 22 hwy. (that is what josh gets). A 7.3DI will get better MPGs than a 6.0, 6.4 or 6.7. Emissions ruins efficiency.
