    Was saying this on Tedward’s leaf video this morning, too, but for being in the position they’re in, Nissan and Infiniti are making pretty darn good lemonade with the lemons they have. If they keep products like this up and continually improve them, I think they’ll end up being just fine.

    QX60 and the QX80 are the only thing I would consider buying from Infiniti, the QX50 and 55 needs a tech, interior and transmission upgrade, also they should put a detuned version of the 3.5TT on this to the QX60.
