Uh yeah, we are taking it on our first official road trip in August after it's fixed, can't wait!!! Then out to Moab next year, we are just heading west and getting lost.
Crazy we've had it over 2 years and not even left town except Chattanooga with it.

Steve, you and AJ live in two totally different places. Not surprised you see many more EV's that aren't Tesla. Not a knock on Tennessee either by the way. Things are a bit more expensive in Maryland, near the DC metro area, so of course you gotta have more money. Those EV's aren't being given away...
$94 to fill the tank yesterday at 5.29 for premium at AM/PM. I never understood the rush of waiting 90 minutes in line to save a whopping $2.70 on a complete tank of gas. Lol

They were 50/50 in those early days. The I, QX4, and first-gen G were all badge-engineered from the Maxima, Pathfinder, and Sentra respectively. But the M, J, and Q were all bespoke, along with the later FX and 2nd gen G. The first-gen M even had the only convertible among any of the Japanese luxury brands of the day.

The Infiniti G20 was not a Sentra rebadge. It was a Primera, which was designed primarily for the European market to compete with the Passat and Opel Vectra. Also the M30 was a Nissan Leopard in JDM. M35=Fuga, Q45 = Cima, President, J30 was a Leopard sedan, G35 = Skyline sedan. I think the FX was bespoke to the Infiniti brand and only sold in America and Europe.
