snow and ice
Hi: I've had maybe 8 BMWs in my life.Whenever there's a snowfall and I open the trunk, there's an avalanche of ice and snow that falls inside the trunk. Are all cars like this, or just our beloved Bimmers? Jack

Have you owned any other cars?
Have you considered brushing off the ice and snow before opening the trunk? Or is the brush in the trunk? We had our first snowfall of the year the other day, a couple of inches, and already there were idiots driving around who had not cleared their windows. |

My response was serious. Do you have evidence or experience that this type of occurrence is worse or more prevalent with BMWs than with other vehicles?
If so, then yes, maybe it has something to do with the type of hinge that BMW uses. If not,then do the experiment on a vehicle that uses the old school hinge type that used to be found on North American cars and let us know the result. |
