New X owner

Hey guys ...... Happy New Year to everyone!

Just picked up my new X today - 2005 Limited, 6.0 PSD 1 owner, with 38,552 (nope, not a typo) miles when I drove it off the lot. Hardly been broken in yet.

We've been looking for over a year now, and have come close on a couple, but there was always something that came up that just made me decide not to pull the trigger. We just about gave up on finding on - literally a month ago we started talking about alternatives......glad we stuck with it!!!


Looking forward to owning this thing for a long time to come! It really is a Happy New Year!

Everyone be safe tonight!!!!!

If I did it right, there should be pics in my "garage" where I entered all of the info on the vehicle.
