  • "I've only had it since December, so it's too soon to determine how the quality is at this point. So far, so good!I didn't get the model that is "loaded with technology", so it's not a con for this model. The amount of technology in it works fine (cameras, sensors, etc.). Some quirks when trying to play music from an iphone or other device - I recommend figuring it out before hitting the road. However, the GPS in it is not intuitive when searching, and kind of makes for a horrible experience. But for specific addresses, it finds it just fine. I use the app on my iPhone more when searching, which kind of defeats the purpose of the in-car app that costs money and doesn't work well. So something should be noted about this in the description, it's not intuitive when searching, but it's great for specific addresses.It is marketed to be the same performance as the Infiniti G37 Journey sedan I had previously (2013 model), so expectations were set high for me in that area. With the G37, I could barely step on it when I needed to and it bolted quickly (merging onto a highway, getting out of someone's way, etc.) The QX50 takes a little bit longer to "bolt", it's almost sluggish in comparison. It is misleading, and false advertising, to market the QX50 the same as the G37. Without that comparison, however, the performance is solid on its own.Also, if it were the same as the G37, the fuel efficiency would be comparable, and it isn't - less fuel efficiency was communicated. I could get close to 400 miles on a full tank of gas, or close to it, with the G37. The QX50 gets me about 320-350 miles on a full tank (of course I get more on the highway). Not terrible.The convenience of the trunk release lever is not there - this is a CUV, why get rid of it?The front seats are kind of narrow and the seat length is shorter than in comparable vehicles. I fit fine, but passengers who are a little on the heavier side are not very comfortable.The back seats I'm told are comfortable, but the top of their heads sometimes hit the "ceiling".Overall, I LOVE THIS VEHICLE! It should be marketed and advertised more accurately, though."

    Car Brakes: How Do You Know When to Change Them?

    By Zach Bowman For those who suffer a daily commute through heavy traffic, your vehicle's braking system can bring thousands of pounds of metal, plastic and empty Starbucks cups to a stop hundreds of times before you get to work. It goes without saying that these pieces wear out, but they do so slowly, meaning you may not notice they need attention until ...
