A friend of mine has the 6 cyl. BMW sports ute...loves it, claims it gets over 20 mpg highway. Sorry, I'm not into the BMW numbers, so dunno if that's the X-5 or not. His other car? A Corvette...his job? Senior pilot for American. I've driven it. I'd hardly call it a bad handling machine. Probably handles better than many cars out there....not my cup of tea, but I'm not hauling kids around, either.
