I generally drive a company truck to work, but was having the Winter tires switched to summer.
I have a 22yr old mechanic in my shop that noticed the X3 and, with phone in hand, asked what engine was under the hood.
Told him the 3.0 liter inline
He asked about the max horsepower
I told him it was rated at around 300 "horsies"
He converted it to cubic inches, then showed me the "horsie" per cube and says
"That's pretty impressive"
Then he looks again at the X3 and says "too bad it's in a modern day station wagon"
I just smiled and shook it off. Kids
