Thumbs down a BMW X5 Engine Blew up in front of me on the highway *results*

these are the results of staying about one bus length behind a White BMW X5 on the highway

weather was -16 celcius which doesn't even include the wind chill factor especially at 114km/h

my car was covered in oil and i was unable to see outside the window clearly and the wipers made it worse







i'm pretty pissed that i had to get a car wash in this weather i usually wait till -2 or warmer to get a wash and park it at some underground mall parking lot
