Apart from those two and night vision, I'm basically getting all the other options

Is there anything else I should consider to order an X over an S?
I think I'm the only one on this board who ordered an Sdrive. I live in Houston and don't plan to do any off roading. I talked to my dealer and he thought it would be fine. Also, they are easier to get. I placed my order on Sat 10/19, it was in production by Monday 10/21, completed production 10/30, and now it's on a truck to me as of today! I should have it mid next week! If I would have ordered xdrive it would have taken at least until Thanksgiving.
I'll post pics when I get it. I haven't test driven yet, so I can't remark on the ride.
