The 2019 X5's Trip Settings actually track the date your X5 was last filled with gas. Mine had 12/18... two days before delivery, while it was at the dealer. If I'm BMW, I'm leaving these things with min fuel and save the shipping weight. Additionally, the fuel doesn't get old/age if the vehicle sits on the lot. Based on my X5's last fuel date - seems like the dealer fills.
