from the guy on reddit:

Richmond VW said business registration is for 1 car.
White Rock is more aggressive on their trade in offers.

@RabidRat - business registration is $351.50 and is a couple of simple forms (technically you don't even need to do them before - you just need to do them if asked)

You may need a business license in your municipality, which you'd usually need to provide the Notice of Articles and Incorporation Agreement.

Bruh did you bare toss those in??? There's these things called bags for clippings / leaves that Home Depot sells :lol

His X5 has become more utilitarian than intended. Do we see a minivan in his future? :D

Did you want the trunk mat and wheels? We aren't quite ready to let it go yet because I don't know if ICBC is going to call about the wheels, but I'll keep you mind if we end up not buying another X5 (it's looking more and more likely to be a iX)

ill take the mat when youre ready to let it go but i dont need the wheels.
did your x5 have the Luggage Compartment Package? is a retractable privacy screen that automatically extends to cover cargo when the tailgate closes and retracts into a hidden compartment.

EvoFire 12-18-2025 10:30 AM

No, I just have the manual tonneau cover. I actually don't want the automatic system. More shit to go wrong and just doesn't fit my use case with large bulky things in the trunk all the time. If you need the manual cover I have it as well. IIRC it SHOULD be included with the car as standard, but I'm not 100% sure.

Shovel too much money. Open the tailgate and drive down the highway.

Talk to me when you haul demo garbage to the landfill in your filled-to-the-roof X5 with the rear seats folded down using a tarp to contain it all.

I did that with the Audi. :drunk:
