    Pulled the trigger yesterday.

    It's a 2020 BMW 520 xDrive. Got rid of the Mercedes V class. First time I bought a BMW.

        Nice.

        I’m waiting for the boy to take my car to college. Then I’m getting something fun with two seats.

        Only non-witches get due process.

            Very nice, Klaus.

            Mrs. George had a 2011 328i X-drive. She didn't care for it because the suspension and steering were too stiff for her taste. I didn't mind it at all, LOL.

            I like the extendable thigh support in the driver's seat, by the way.

                  The 5 series cars are less stiff than the 3 series cars. I considered a 3 series car at first, but I also like some comfort more. Also, as used cars, the 5 series cars are better value for the money (i.e., they drop in price quicker).
