I have an FX37 the same color that I bought in 2016. About 112,000 miles and so far not too much wrong . Fingers crossed . The fact that it’s 1 year with that monster 3.7 liter is Special.

When u say not too much.....do share

[@CJSPENO]

@@Br99klynINg24_8 Well , had to replace rear Radiator do to a hole and some rear exhaust pipes. But nothing catastrophic I should say. Feel like I’m forgetting something…

[@ernestojanniere76]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@jakekalinowski3988]

When I went to get my mustang, we had the same problem with gas shortage on the drive back 😅 good looks man hope you enjoyed your trip!

[@CoconutCreampi3]

Very interesting that Infiniti is becoming rare. Now, the greatest task would be to source an Infiniti J30(RWD sedan). That would be neat AF

[@MandusahRamirez]

Now That Would Be Cool!!

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

If you do this alone, my advice is: no more than 8 hrs of driving without an overnight stay. Sure 8 hours doesn't sound like too much, but it's 8 hours after flying, inspecting, making a big decision, negotiating, and doing paperwork. I did 9.5 hrs and that last hour and a half was abject misery.

[@jensz9360]

Ive driven 22 hours straight. Its not that bad if you have a comfortable vehicle. that has a quiet interior and doesnt have droning tire noise.

[@suebuoscio9346]

I just went to Georgia and got a Fx37 too!! I love this car and don’t want any other. This is my second FX….sold the first one and missed it so much that I had to get another one!

[@tommyaintgotnojob]

Both generations of the car have aged well and are largely responsible for the current crossover trend with automanufacturers!

[@jensz9360]

@@tommyaintgotnojob Infiniti invented the crossover. This is why I cant understand why they ditched the FX /QX70. It was a great SUV. Now their lineup is trash, looks plain and its not reliable.

[@kevinbarbee5900]

I have a 2017 QX70 black limited that I flew to Houston and drove back. Yours is beautiful! Love the color and rims and calipers

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

I flew to Oregon 14 months ago and brought home a 533i. I wish I could have had a buddy go with me, it was a long drive home. I also sold my FB to a guy from LA who flew into SJC and I picked him up at the airport. He got a screaming deal of course because I already had my ticket to get the BMW in Oregon!

[@luis76one]

Good video. I’ve been looking for an FX35 but I might end up looking for an FX37 now.

[@lendaryreviews]

Fire! Homie... thinking of auction for Japanese camper van. ^_^ so i had to watch this!

[@misterwhistle5138]

Happy Memorial Day To U Zack.

[@hx.925]

Same here

[@ernestojanniere76]

Do you still own it? Is there update video? Thanks

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

Infiniti: we have a vehicle nomenclature that makes perfect sense. Everyone understands it. Infiniti to Infiniti: change it so it makes sense to NO ONE

[@reginaldbrown8012]

The FX37 is a better vehicle than the new QX50 and QX55 in my opinion. If I find a good example with reasonable mileage. I’m buying it. I’ve owned a G37 and now a Q50 and I have nothing but high praise for both.

[@crazyone1067]

You are correct. Those vehicles are both FWD based and equipped with CVT transmissions. I have an FX37 and it puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. I bought mine back in 2020 with 67k on the odo. It was in pristine shape because it was owned by a 60 y/o grandma. 😀

[@crazyone1067]

Nickajack Lake is where you're at. Part of the TN river.

[@deenice9363]

Wheres the roof rack? I'm interested in getting one with 75k is that too much mileage?

[@crazyone1067]

That trip made you guys look HAM!

[@spacefacegaming]

Right now where I'm am in Georgia Atlanta Douglasville its 3.23 where I live when u upload this btw I wish u could move where I am just like gingum ❤👍😆

[@cpradel2683]

You guys should stopped by Atlanta custom wraps while you were out there!

[@dave11686]

Looks like you had fun

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

2014 was when I graduated from college. "eight year old car" has me 😢

[@crazyone1067]

The new CEO over INFINITI at the time came in during 2014 and changed the nomenclature. They should really revert back to old nomenclature.

[@juarezsanchez4428]

It's weird to me, cuz I just started looking for these yesterday😂

[@peterigwilopi]

The grille look like 2017 Qx70 as opposed to Fx37. Why?

[@crazyone1067]

It was swapped out with a 2017 grille.

[@kingcole8759]

If I see this comment ever what was the gas mileage u guys got in the ride back ??

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

The FX is like a Picasso painting. Ugly if you look for just a second. if you keep looking though it gets much better. The more you look the more there is to like

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

Thats not a tank. This is a tank. (my suburban only gets 15.5 mpg but it's got a 42 gallon tank so round about 650 miles per tank. But fill ups make you cry.)

[@char1737]

I love my Q45 and I also like the FX 45/35 I find it sad that Infiniti decided to call all the cars q and all the SUVs QX there's no longer any exclusivity it's all numbers and letters it works well with German cars but not with the Infiniti like the exclusivity of a Q45 or the entry level M20,

[@jensz9360]

Dumbest thing they could have done was rename them. That and they discontinued the FX SUV and went with trash like the Q50. Whoever is in charge at Infiniti is a damn moron.

[@cavemantim]

What a handsome young man in that thumbnail

[@alexnagy3386]

:o

[@cavemantim]

; )

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

Make the title not all caps then tell me it isn't clickbait. I thought you were getting a jdm import.

[@crazyone1067]

I'm with Alex... I let no one drive my FX.

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

Me: mmkay, Georgia-Tennessee-Kentucky... What's between Kentucky and Illinois? Me: goes to Google maps Me to me: oh. I'm an idiot.

[@crazyone1067]

🤣

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

Oh no I did the thing again where half the comments are mine. Sorry Zach!

[@Nathan_Jay]

There's a reason they only made em for a bit 🤣 Regardless, hopefully Alex enjoy it.

[@thirdpedalnirvana]

Big car with little car space inside. It was ahead of its time. Now everyone wants an SUV that has no space inside and looks like a coupe. Atlas coupe. Cayenne coupe. Jaguar ipace. Mustang Mach E.

[@Nathan_Jay]

@@thirdpedalnirvana yeah, but the Infiniti badging and "luxury" treatment didn't help.

[@danyoyoh]

They did. Just changed the name to QX50 and QX70
