So my wife informed me she wants a 3rd kid by the time she's 30... (soo within 2 years).  We have a 2015 MDX but looks like we will need a bigger car (MDX won't fit 3 car seats).  My wife really likes Infiniti QX80... Does anyone know if this car is a good buy?

Nonsense - your MDX will fit 3 car seats just fine. Look into Diono Radian or Radian RXT seats, which can be either rear- or forward-facing; we have a 4, 3, and 1 year old and they fit comfortably in the back of my Subaru Legacy sedan using a couple of these seats and an infant carrier, and we even fit 3 across in our old Ford Focus using these.

Additionally, as someone with three kids it's a pain in the ass to constantly have to access a third row (not to mention the loss of cargo space). If you're serious about getting something else, get a van and be done with it. There isn't a third-row vehicle out there that can match the convenience, configuration flexibility, and overall utility of a van.

For your MDX:

I believe based on having an MDX and then wanting a QX60, perhaps your wife just wants a luxury SUV. The only other cars that I believe can rival the QX60 based on price and luxury is the Lexus LX. The Audi Q7 is German and the Mazda CX-9 and the completely redesigned Honda Pilot are spacious but not as luxurious.

We have a tundra and a lexus rx. The Lexus is paid off and my wife's. I'd be hard pressed getting rid of free and something that can go another 4 years.

 

My cousin has an Audi Q7 that had a 3rd row and I liked it but I would pry like to drive the Lexus GX too. If I was looking to gain space.

      Some love for Steve Wilks

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      Wilks is a nobody in the grand scheme of things.  He is right back out of the NFL, exactly where he was before Carolina dragged him back to the NFL.  I don't see what he has to be pissed or salty about. He got a shot with 2 teams and was just a average coach as he has always been.  He is a lesser Fox/Rivera

      The way BY must play quarterback has a much higher degree of difficulty.  Coupled with his physical limitations his margin for error is small.    The guy evading the blitz and dropping a dime deep over double coverage is more exciting then a wobbling ball thrown into the blitz with good enough placement that gets 6 yards on a 3rd and 5.  It's been beat to death that he will never be the first guy.  He was the second guy vs the Chiefs.    The second guy is harder to do because it's mostly mental:  reading, reacting and processing the correct solution that the defense provided within a second or two.    It's harder to see on film, it's harder to evaluate.  That's why I think there's a divergence between fans yelling "noodle armed middle schooler!!" and analysts going "hold up, let's not write him off yet"    I personally need to see the Chiefs game be the start of growth before getting hopeful.  Ideally would like to see 1-2 300yd multi td games.  Then I'd expect the entire off season to fix his footwork.  With his physical limitations that footwork needs to be damn near perfect.  I would still bring in competition at the QB spot even in that scenario.
