Nice, the blue surrounding the BMW logo signals its efficiency, as I'm sure you know.

Yes but it still has 483hp



First leg down.




I still have 39 miles of EV. I plan on driving back on the same tank. Found myself doing 90+ several times before realizing it. I don’t use CC really. Not using CC keeps me alert because the car will keep itself in the lane + using CC is almost like self driving which would make me 🥱🫩

It seems to be a great platform. I know the V8 TT is more powerful but overall the B58 is great!!

Got my new plate today, LNDCRUZ had to go bc I don't want my truck associated with it anymore.

I want a personalized license plate but I need at least a paragraph to say what I have to say.

Can't be done in 6 letters. 🏆 👀

It looks like 218 miles to go with only 211 miles range?

Please tell me you'll stop for gas.!📣 💯
What happens if there is a wreck and traffic is jammed up?

I'm hoping for you friend! 🫸🫷 🍿 🍟 🌭 🍕

I asked my wife if we’re stopping at buccees, she said we don’t have to. So next stop is home. I have 🔌 at home.

I‘m banking on Waze to reroute me if possible early enough if there’s traffic.

Here’s an update below.




Showing 6 mile difference now since above pics. Cmon B58🎲

This is like a video game to me!!

You can stop and get a cold Coca Cola fountain drink and a slim jim and some snacks.

And top off the tank while you're there anyway.

I’m out of the hills. So that should help. Gotta keep it around 80 max until I exit the highway. I exit highway in 54 miles. I’ll go EV mode from there
