I just bought my x about a month ago but So I am not an expert on them but here goes.

Why does everyone complain about the mileage just because the price went up. Most people I see here have owned their X for a few years at least. So the X gets bad mileage compared to CARS. Every SUV gets worst gas milage then a car. I would think people bought there X for a diffrent reason than how many MPG they get. The 16 I get with my X and the 15 I get with my other truck I am at over 400 monthly in gas but I love both my trucks so I live with it and make changes elswere. I guess all I am trying to say is that the X got bad mileage when we bought them so why complain about it now?

Sorry if offended anyone with this reply.
Actually, most people here are NOT complaining about gas milage. Most of the responses in this thread, when asked if they are giving up their X's, range from "not me" to "...from my cold dead hands!!!"

Whenever someone complains here that the X gets "bad" milage, 15 people rag on said person for complaining.

Sure, everyone (not just XOC'ers) is paying for and talking about the situation, but again MOST of the things I hear are statements of prices and political rants, not whining that the milage of their current vehicle sucks. Some people are trading in vehicles as a result, but I think that actually represents a small minority.

Just the results of my ponderings, anyway!
