Seats:
I am 6'4" with back problems and I have been looking for weeks now to find a car that has an acceptable driver seat. Right now I have a Saab which has good seats but they are no more and I went through at least 30 different cars, SUVs and trucks. All worse compared to my Saab seat. This was until I came across these multi contour seats offered from BMW. They are awesome.
Since I am looking into a used X5 (3 to 4 years old) I found out that most X5 don't have them. I guess the dealer or previous owner did not order them.
- Can they be retrofitted on a model without them? And how much would BMW charge for these? Not sure I need a pair. Or would it be cheaper to search for a used X5 with that package?
Towing:
- Does the X5 come standard with a 2" hitch?
- Does the X5 have a transmission cooler? I would be using it to tow our popup camper which weighs about 2500 lb.
Diesel or V6:
- I am still debating between the V6 gasser and the Diesel. I don't really want the V8 as I refer to get better mph. I am originally from Germany and have always been a Diesel fan and love to have the torque when towing I guess the X35d would make a great towing vehicle. But Diesel fuel is still more expensive here in Texas compared to Premium. And looking at the data the Diesel does not seem to be that more fuel efficient than the V6. 19 vs 16 mpg in the city. Any convincing reasons to go with a Diesel besides the torque?
Extended warranty:
- I would like to get a CPO X5 from BMW. But in case I find another one not sold by a BMW dealer, can I still get an extended warranty through BMW that provides the same or similar coverage? And how much is BMW charging for that?
Thanks for all the help so far?
