Just noticed in your signature the wife also rotates...does she work their too or are you on the family plan?
No, i am supervisior and allowed to get two bmws. She is a nurse manager, and I have one and she has the other. I got her one because we both travel quite a few miles daily for work, so its very good for us.

I am a bit surprised you can get German made cars. I would have thought (logically at least) that you guys could drive cars that were produced in the US factory but not those being imported from Germany.
Anyway your good luck I guess.

REAR-ENDED!!!!!!! Not my fault. I didnt work today, so i let my wife take the 5 to work. She called me at 7 this evening and said hey, i just had a wreck. I said WHAT!!? It was about two miles from our house. It wasnt her fault, a "school-activity bus" rear-ended her at a redlight. The car got most of its damage on the passenger side -rear of the car. My wife didnt get hurt and neither did the bus driver. I couldnt take pics, didnt have the camera. BMW came and hauled the car to the performance center and i have a meeting in the morning with the manager of the employee car leasing program, because the 5 was a loaner car and my vehicle rep didnt give me my proper paperwork for the vehicle. The car has heavy bumper damage, trunk damage, brake light smashed, and i guess the force of the impact caused my tire to go flat? Hopefully, everything will go smoothly with that, its not my fault so im not worried. However, i just wish whatever kind of curse i am having with BMW would end. Im having situation and situation, but this one wasnt my fault i guess. After we got home, my i was joking with my wife about the problems i have been having, my little son said .. well we can ride our bikes everywhere as long as we wear out helmets, cause their like seatbelts. LOL.. Nevertheless, no one was injured, just a damaged car, that will be checked in the morning. Will keep you guys posted after my meeting. Meeting is at 9, so of course i will make sure to take pics of the car, if they let me see it again, cause they made me take everything out of it tonight and of my loaner .. lol .. if they give me another!
