Maybe it depends on the brand?

But I don’t trust the current BMW turbo engines to go very long. Way too stressed, 2 liter boosted engines pulling 3600-4000+ lb. vehicles.

In the last Roundel (BMW CCA mag), one of the columnists wrote about a long trip that he had just done in his 5 series. Which he seems to like.

As part of the article, he mentioned the work the car had has in its 150,000 mile life.

One thing, nonchalantly mentioned, is that it’s on its FOURTH set of twin turbos.
