It’s still a FWD biased AWD system unlike ‘normal’ Infinitis which—for me anyway—means ‘meh’.

This new-to-Infiniti motor sure sounds interesting, but not so much the abandonment of Infiniti’s great rear-biased AWD system in favor or a cheaper, lighter weight front-bias system which ranks this new model right up there with nearly every other low(er)-budget crossover out there. Too bad....

This, my friend, is how it’s supposed to work—assuming that your wife is as cool as your arrangement as you seem to be. It’s about give and take, and two people striking a balance which works out for both. Nice job :)

Our wives are clearly the same person.

I’m not gay, but I agree with you that being of the same gender **should** theoretically remove any gender-based inequalities out of the household division-of-labor. Problem is, I personally do not believe the situation in the article is necessarily only gender-based.

Ugh...I’m sorry to hear that... for your sake! ;)

I’m no expert clearly, but I would recommend you have a sit-down with him and spell it out. Like everything else in a relationship, “division of labor” needs to equal, too. There will be time when your schedules and other involvements may mean that one of you has to pick up the slack, but by no means should that me…

I am right with you, my friend. Our “division of labor” has never been anywhere near equal—in spite of my pushing the issue many times.

I’ve always thought about having one added to my furnace, but was wondering....doesn’t the water sitting in the furnace’s humidifier try tend to get stagnant and grow bacteria, then that crap gets blown all through your HVAC ducts? Just curious....thanks!

Good info. I’m not familiar with Bacteriostat; does is completely eliminate the growth of bacteria or just reduce it? My little ones both have the little elephant cool mist humidifiers, and as much as I try to be diligent about emptying them, swishing white vinegar around in them, then dumping and re-filling with…

Sadly, that price range will exclude me from buying it—at least “new” anyway. Maybe the 300hp detuned version will be more reasonable. Otherwise, I may be relegated to a leftover 2015 Q50S 3.7 awd which, frankly, I think I’d be OK with. I tend to keep my cars forever; the current gen VQ motors are bulletproof and who…

I hope it only costs that much, too....but suspect it may be far more. Doh :(

Sadly, I predict this variant will run close to or over the $50k mark which means it will only be available to me as an off-lease car, which also means it will be well beaten-to-shite by that time. Guess I’m stuck with my ‘08 EX35 for another few years....

...that “game” seems to be getting pretty weak, with so many of their inline 6’s being replaced by turbo 4-bangers. Nothing like eliminating the one thing which contributed most to your success as a company. Nice, short-sighted work, BMW...

That being said, I would suggest the 2.0 turbo engine for you good sir (or madam). Problem solved :)

As a long time older BMW sedan owner who’d really like to “like” the X1 as a replacement for my aging Infiniti EX35, I’m out. I knew FWD platforms are slowing permeating some of BMWs model line-up, but from my limited experience, BMW’s rear-biased xDrive systems are among the best out there, and anyone who cannot…

I realize I don’t speak for everyone here, but the presidential race has become a line-up of not-ready-for-prime-time Disney characters. Trump is just shy of being clinically insane, and I’m still convinced he’s only in the race to see how far he would get (let’s face it; coming from a lifestyle such as his, he would…

I was coming home from work the other day and came across a younger guy driving a Dodge diesel full size (think it was a 1500). Not sure if the motor had work done to it, but the exhaust was definitely aftermarket.

Can’t speak to the car, the seller, or why the seat covers exist (heck, I’ve used to keep new seats from getting crapped up in the first place, but that’s just me)—but Flemington, NJ is a beautiful place (shhh....don’t tell anyone).

If you ever had my homemade gravy, you would not be suggesting such things! :)
