Nice vid. Since the seating controls are not intuitive, one of my primary X7 complaints, this should almost be mandatory viewing for owners and prospective buyers

This^^^
I just recently read an article that the captains chairs do not fold flat like every other SUV on the market. Really limits cargo area capacity. Love my BMW SUVs but I am going to pass for sure now. This lack of a flat load space with capt chairs is absurd. Horrible design. Also, I am tired of always buying non-RF all season tires to put on which is ridiculous. RR and MB don't do that. Quite a shame.

Not sure what you mean by this... The X7 comes from the factory with both a RFT and non-RFT all-season option in 21" sizes. Also, replacement RFT and non-RFT all-season tires are available from vendors like Tire Rack. My 2020 X7 40i has the factory 21" RFT all-seasons (which I will be replacing with non-RFT tires when the time comes).

Yep...read what you just said. You will be replacing RFT with NON-RFT. Not sure what your point is. I have never owned a 6 banger so 40i may have other options. Only factory tire is RFT. This isn't my first fucking rodeo.

Whoa, I think you need to check your blood pressure a bit... Your comment by itself did not make much sense without some additional caveats, hence my comment which was just trying to provide some additional insight based on what you said. But then I guess you have everything all figured out because this isn't "your first fucking rodeo"....

And you are wrong, there is a factory non-RFT option for the X7, just like I said. Why don't you go check the ordering guide thread in the stickies section of this forum. So maybe this is your first fucking rodeo, at least for the X7....

But back OT now. Sorry to the OP for de-railing the thread a bit...
