    Nice, I bought my wife a 2013 X5 a few months back.

    I daily either my e30 or a motorcycle so the x5 feels wierd but she loves it. I'm sure the new-car warrenty is worth it.

          Went total fanboy style and bought an ARB 'Airlocker' chair.

          Not the most expensive chair on the market, by far, despite the brand.

          Initial impressions are that is much more comfortable than the less stable and more common cheapie chairs. Taking it out next weekend, so we will see how comfortable it feels after sitting in it for a while.

                  After the R3v camping trip I realized I had a severe need to increase my comfort level/cool factor when I was out and about.

                  So I went ahead and purchased a CVT Roof Top Tent, Mt. Rainier Extended version, with Annex room. The tent has a mattress that is the size of a California King (though not as thick), and the annex room provides enough shelter to sleep another two cots, if the need arises.

                  First impressions are that it is worth the almost 2 and a half large that it costs. I think that sums it up quite well.

                  Don't mind the ghetto mounting setup. Had to show the wife what I bought and my custom bed/roof rack isn't completed yet.

                  It packs away efficiently when it is all buttoned up.

                  Fully open, it is an impressive sight, IMO. The annex room is not attached, as the tent isn't mounted high enough yet.

                  Set it up and got it loaded with bedding. Testing it out for the first time this weekend up at the North Rim on the Grand Canyon.

                        Vintage Sioux valve facing machine and Black & Decker stone dresser. Also got an electric Black & Decker driver for the seat stones, and guide liner/centering kit in with the lot (not in pic). Looks beat, but is mechanically in great condition. Just had everything trued up, grinds like a dream. :)

                          Oh, and the B&D came with the original wooden tool box for the seat grinding equip., but it's disintegrating - so -might make some wall art out of the box lid...

                              Good!

                              I feel like I leveled up right when I bought it.

                              Still lots to acquire, but I feel that this purchase, this early into the game, was well worth it.

                                The typography on the lid is so awesome. You dont see stuff like than on newer products these days.
