I'm not sure if BMW has confirmed if the new G05 will come to the states with a diesel or not, but at 20% off MSRP for this one I wasn't going to wait around and find out. And if they don't, I imagine the F15Ds will hold their values a bit better than the other versions.

So far I'm seeing 24mpg city and 32mpg highway, and I only expect that to get better as the motor gets some miles on it.
Welcome to the group. I'm in sort of the same boat. Not new to BMW but new to the X5.

Enjoy the ride and congrats!
