Riding in style: BMW X7, Jaguar F-Pace, Range Rover
The Pointer Sisters. The Jonas Brothers. Gay throuples. Sometimes good things come in threes. Same for this trio of SUVs, all loaded with luxury.
My husband Robert and I took each of these vehicles on weekend forays, encountering pleasant surprises along the way. BMW X7 $78,000 MPG: 21city/25 highway 0 to 60 mph: 5.8 seconds PROS: Zippy, fresh facelift, flashy cabin CONS: Tight third row, clunky HVAC controls, costly options IN A NUTSHELL: Sassy on the outside, but comfy—almost overly so—inside.
My test car, the base-model BMW X7 xDrive40i, boasted a strong six-cylinder engine and velvety transmission. The destination: Maryland orchards to score some fruit and veggies.
Along the way, Robert and I traversed myriad freeways and backroads. We also spotted one fine ass: Jack, the donkey who roams the fields at one of our favorite roadside stops.
