75000 miles and still great! - 2005 Infiniti QX56
By BogeyMan - February 15 - 11:33 pmAfter 4 1/2 years and 75K miles, this vehicle cannot be beat. We drive locally, long distance, in snow, heat and traffic. We couldnt ask for a better ride, fit finish and overall reliability. All we do are regular oil changes, tire rotations and scheduled maintenance and this truck runs great. We had an unfortunate experience hitting a VERY large deer once, and had we been in anything else, the deer would have been in our laps. We were safe, the deer escaped, and all we had to replace was the front grill and hood. Insurance covered it. Even all the toys (DVD system, Navigation, Sirius, power lift gate) remain in great working order. We love this SUV, and the paint still shines like new!

Better Quality than a Chevrolet / GMC - 2005 Infiniti QX56
By Shawn - January 7 - 8:26 amThus far the ride, craftmanship and luxury features are better than the 2001 Suburban and 2004 GMC Yukon XL that I previously owned. We are really enjoying the QX56.

Bill - 2005 Infiniti QX56
By Bill - November 21 - 12:36 pmThe QX56 has all the others beat by a mile! Runs great, looks great, holds 8 people comfortably, or hauls 4x8 shhets of plywood. You name it. Easy seat conversion too. I most like (and have never seen) the Qs ability have a person sit in the second row, and NOT have his knees touch the seat in front. The best, (and best value for the money) auto, Ive ever owned! Very satisfied!

Best of the bigger suvs - 2005 Infiniti QX56
By Susan - September 4 - 2:50 amLove the room, and very comfortable; acceleration onto major roadways is surprisingly peppy for this size. Best for long hauls or mainly highway; around town; gas mileage stinks. Best GPS system Ive ever used.

Best full size luxury SUV out there! - 2005 Infiniti QX56
By Paul - April 10 - 12:20 pmI did extensive research before this purchase and Im very pleased with the results. The fit, finish, and comfort features are second to none. Many of the luxury options on this vehicle are standard compared to others (Cadillac, Lincoln, Land Rover, Lexus, Denali), and you wont find as many on the road which makes it unique! Although Nissan makes the similar Armada for about $7K less, this one has all of the bells and whistles, the engine is smooth, quiet and more powerful. Before you go and buy an escalade or Navigator, stop by your Infiniti dealer...youll end up with one in your garage (if it will acutally fit in it!!)

Excellent SUV QX56 4X4 - 2005 Infiniti QX56
By Happy Owner - March 12 - 11:00 pmWith 3000 miles already,my wife and I are very pleased with the vehicle. There hasnt been one trip back to the dealer for anything. The XM Satelite radio is fine, the Navigation is wonderful with the "Birds Eye View". The gas mileage I think could be better but 14.25 mpg is what it gets. This SUV is Powerful, no problem getting out into the thick of it. The stopping power could put you through the windshield, I had one occasion for a panic stop, (AWSOME)

2005 QX56 review - 2005 Infiniti QX56
By George Smith Jr. - November 16 - 8:50 amVehicle is excellent. Very smooth on the road and very responsive around town. Really like the rear back-up camera. It is something all cars should have. Around town gas mileage is a little slim, but road milage is fine. Liked the way the rear two rows of seats fold away. Having owned three Lexuses before this purchase, Im very impressed with Infiniti. This car is bigger than the Lexus 470 and is better quality than the Cadillac Escalade

Infiniti QX 56 - 2005 Infiniti QX56
By Jeff Centers - October 21 - 4:46 pmVehicle is a pleasure to drive. I own numerous German autos and this one is comparable in quality, features, and especially comfort, at half the price. The power band is awesome, the transmission silky smooth, and the driver controls are well placed. Brakes could be better, and it has a pretty good blind spot on the driver side but you learn to accommodate. Overall it was a great purchase and I am proud to drive and be seen in it. It definitely turns heads everywhere we go.
