    We have/ had this SUV. The Infinity QX80 is magnificent. Two week ago involved in head-on collision in our QX80. Our SUV was hit hard enough to send into a spin slamming into another car. The airbags did not deploy. No one was hurt. No cabin damage. The Infinity QX80 saved our lives.

    Great review, Sarah. It always cracks me up, when you fall out-of-frame during the bolstering test. I also appreciate you pointing out the difference between a 10 mil bolt and a "popper doodle." Keep up the great work.

    I’m not let down. Turn off traction control. It’s a beast. I have a 2021 Armada Platinum. It’s a beast on gas also, but I knew that when I purchased it. I took of the original tie after 2000 miles. I have Michelin Defenders M+S on now. Big difference.

      I wanted the Land Cruiser but bought the Armada instead. Reason being, its 7 or 8 tenths of a Land Cruiser, for approx 1/2 of the actual transaction price. I think the Armada is well worth 1/2 the price of the LX600

    The tires are Dueler H/T as in Highway Terrain. I'm using the same tires (but of different size) on the ISUZU MUX - the cousin of the 2016 Chevrolet Trailblazer - and those tires don't really like the offroad. However, those tires love the pavement and asphalt (that is why it's called H/T or Highway Terrain).

    Thats a nice car. I like the brown interior. When my mom's 2003 Jeep Liberty got too crusty and the power steering pump went we were searching for a replacement. Our mechanic had a QX50, 2019 I think, on his used car lot we were going to buy and then my dad found a 2016 Jeep Cherokee for a slightly cheaper price at the Dodge dealer. It's been an awesome car. My only critique is the power seats that you program to your driving position. It's stored in the key fob. A few times I've grabbed my mom's key by accident and found my 5 foot 7 self squashed into mom's 5 foot 1 driving position 🤣. Keep up the great work!

It tows, it plows thru snow, it handles a cottage road with aplomb, all while hauling a crowd and their stuff in style and comfort. Call it what it is and it makes perfect sense. An off-roader, not so much.

    Having been someone that came from an Infinity M56X top trim with the aero bumper, and test drove this SUV about a year ago, I can safely say that this SUV just feels cheap. It looks great, but feels cheap and looked cheap on the inside (Probably due the one I test drove had the old single screen and not the updated dual screen setup.) But it was huge, slow and not fun to drive at all. This vehicle is nothing more than transportation to the office and back (Or whatever you people do) and that's it imo

I paid 27k for a Chevy Camaro LS V6 base model. An I just had it appraised for trade in for 15,500 at the car lot I bought it. It has under 18k miles. It's nice. But useless. I should have Kept my 2012 VW Beetle .I could carry more in the VW than Camaro. I want hatchback to carry animal cages/ traps for feral cats. I'm clueless at what to look for VW wagon/gti or Subaru hatchback Outback, forester or Crosstrek. Hard to find anything under 20k with under 100k miles. I had 2001 Chevy S10 4cyl 5spd. before VW bought it in 2004 had it till 2012. I love trucks. Can't afford one nor keep it up running with 7.00 diesel a gallon. Sorry rambling on.

    Just had one of these as a rental for a week. I always liked the look of them but If anyone is considering this truck I highly recommend you rent one for a few days before you pull the trigger. Ergonomics was horrible for me and I couldn’t get comfortable at all and the power is lack luster and almost got me into a game of chicken when trying to pass someone on the highway. By the end of the week I couldn’t believe someone would pay the 70k msrp for it much less 80k+ like the one in this video. This is not the luxury vehicle Infiniti wants you to think it is and I would have so much buyers remorse if I bought one of these.

    When are you going to do a full review on the Ford Lightning?

    Still stuck with that old 7 speed automatic, even the tighten gets the much better 9 speed

    Do you do all your braking tests at the same speed? 60-0 standard, or faster or slower?
