Ouch, that's one thing I ask when people go from X5 to other SUVs.

Can it corners like BMW? In fact, on my daily drive, as I dip into the curve at 50mph, I wonder to myself, will I be able to drive like this on my next SUV? When people say "it's fun to drive" you don't necessarily have to be driving like a maniac, cutting everyone off, criss crossing lanes. It's actually little joys like not having to slow down to take that on ramp or knowing that it will still be level when you have to swerve around that guy who decided to slow down in center lane-- that makes you appreciate a vehicle's capabilities. Not sure if she really means business when she says 80, but yeah, I get it.

Thanks again!
