New to forum from Northern Virginia

H2O_Doc · 03-14-2020, 05:31 AM

New to forum and new to a BMW M240i xdrive (as of yesterday). I'm a veteran of car enthusiast forums and I appreciate the information and discussions posted here. I'll do my best to use the search function before being a bother, but your patients is encouraged as I have a lot to learn.

Very happy with my purchase and I look forward conversing. Any questions, just let me know.

Purchased from Faulkner VW in Mechanicsburg, PA. And, I'll note, it was the single best car purchasing experience I've ever had. I drove up from Alexandria and traded a GTI for exactly what we agreed to over the phone. And, it was great purchasing from a crew of car guys (and girls).

We have a great bunch people on the forum, considerate and helpful.

I'm actually mildly disappointed about my agency going to a month of telework because I now have almost zero drive time each day.

Go out for lunch - gas prices are down & with less traffic on the roads you might be able to find an empty one!

well, at least the traffic will be lighter when you decide to head out for some spirited driving.

Ah, but the traffic is light! Think of an excuse (dentist?) to go for a 1 hour drive. Get to 1200 miles so that the break-in is over. Then change the oil (LiquiMoly 5w30 API="SN")and filter (Mann only), and start having fun.

Yeeeaaahhh boy. Welcome! I live in RVA and just got an 18 xdrive in white as well.
Not gonna lie, I really love that seat color. I'd be awful at keeping it clean, but damn it's sexy. Enjoy!!
