Gotta have your flame suit on! I'm surprised on how coarse social media interaction has become. Must be something about not being face-to-face and the sence on annonimity -- if we were all together in a discussion, I'm certain we all would not respond with such impatience and intemperance. It's disappointing.

As an aside, the search function of this forum is inefficient and, mostly, ineffective. Perhaps I don't know how to use it fully, but when I put terms in for search it spits out page after page of threads without much by way of narrowing. The Rennlist forum (Porsche) has a Google feature which further narrows the search to specific postings. Wish we had that feature here.

PS, congrats on the X6. Welcome to the club.

You are absolutely right! Unfortunately, it doesn't help that these days it seems that hate is "the new black".

Btw... I find that I get much better search results for this forum by typing the keywords into Google versus using the Bimmerpost search tool.

+1 on Google being more effective
