I just wanted to let you guys know that we have decided to trade the e60 for a 05 GX470. I will definitely miss driving the e60. This forum is great. So I will still be checking in. Thanks for everyone's help.

Good luck!

I'm not trying to be mean, but as the oil price going up, you want to increase oil consumption, too? It's can only give you 14/15 mpg on daily driving.
