I may have found a cheaper alternative! This can keep kids entertained for hours on end. No special wiring necessary and batteries are guaranteed to outlast kid's attention span ;-)

There is ICEing. And there is this guy.

X off road? Of course! Bar Island land bridge in Maine.

After looking around for a few days, I decided to buy the Yakima Fullswing (FullSwing). I just came back fro a road trip to Acadia and it worked flawlessly. It swings open to allow for trunk access and is also Supercharger friendly. A few pictures below.

It does. I paid for it. It just does not sound like what I would expect from a $2,500 option. Can one tell by looking at it? Number of speakers? My R350 says "Harman Kardon" on the speaker grills, esay to spot. My BMW just sounds really nice for a small car, especially the subwoofer. I have also...

I may be an outlier, but I am really glad my car came with a fixed spoiler. Not because it is one last thing to malfunction on this overly complicated car design, but simply because I do not like the way the car looks with the spoiler retracted. The first thing that came to my mind when I...

Checking in! Boston area, just received my X this past week. Despite a driver's door latch failure quickly fixed by a Ranger in my garage, I am in love with the car.

After driving around and listening to some music on the X, I am quite sure it is a disappointment. I compared the X with my M3 which has the premium sound package (not sure who makes it), and with my 2007 Mercedes R350 with Harman Kardon premium sound. Even though I like the BMW sound a little...

Honeymoon is over. After only 3 days, driver's side door latch malfunctioned. Door won't latch properly or respond to comnands. Can't lock the car. Love this car, but the door issue is still plaguing owners. Anyone else in the June delivery experienced door issues?

Got my car yesterday. Charging at 72 Amps at home. Sweet!

Railings and motor are exactly 90". After reading some posts here I was afraid the doors would not open fully, but they did with a couple of inches to spare. Suspension is in the standard (low) setting.

I am happy to report that Ice is safe and sound at home. My wife and kids had a blast at delivery and things so far looking good. I only drove it for about ten miles today but it was love at first sight. The best news so far is that the car fits quite comfortably in the garage with no...

We wouldn't be able to do it together until next week. I don't really mind not being there. As long as my wife and kids are happy, I am happy. The car will be waiting for me on the driveway this evening. Good enough!

Delivery tomorrow @ 2pm! Wife and kids picking up the car as I am tied up at work. After all this wait, I will miss the actual delivery :-(

Good news! DS called this afternoon saying my car arrived over the weekend and passed all the pre-delivery inspections. It is ready to be picked up. I have a delivery appointment for Wed afternoon. From what I gathered: - The car was transported to Boston by truck, no train as some have...
