Fair enough, though I imagine a RWD X3, X5, X6 would sell plenty well in lower 20 states here if they were available. No need for BMW though since the price structure works out great without it.

Also, rear wheel drive is not great on snow if you are not into sliding
It is subjective. My wife drove 335i 6MT on all seasons one winter. With kids. And had no issues, scares, problems, or complaints. I really think it is a matter of comfort level.

Each to their own - I love the extra traction I get from the AWD. Ibe also noted the disappointment others have expressed on this forum (though not all!) with the lower spec sDrive and 18 diesel models.
I'm glad you love your BMW. I love mine too. I've had AWD vehicles in the past including a BMW. I've loved them. But like a RWD BMW more. Just my opinion.
