"To infinity and beyond!" - Buzz Lightyear. "The sky's the limit." - Grandma. Both quotes, we think, are similar, and it was the approach that Infinity took for the 2004 QX56. It was all-new, from frame rails to roof rack. A full-size SUV that was as big and as luxurious as the Lincoln Navigator or Cadillac Escalade (We have one!). It was by far the biggest vehicle Nissan's Infiniti luxury division had ever sold. The Infiniti QX56 had nothing in common with the QX4 that it replaced. The QX56 in 2004 was the most powerful, quietest, most luxurious, most spacious, most completely featured and stylish vehicle in its class. It also boasted the most cargo and towing capacity. If all this sounds too good to be true, for once, it isn't., , Our 2004 Infinity QX56 4WD is propelled by a 5.6 L VK56DE V8 engine and a 5-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive. Each cylinder in the engine is lined with cast iron. The valvetrain is a DOHC design with four valves per cylinder. Infiniti designed the QX56's throttle responsiveness to correspond to specific drivetrain modes: when the driver selects all-wheel drive, the throttle becomes less sensitive, probably to allow easier regulation of acceleration when off-road. It can tow around 9,000 lbs, which is the highest in its class. It comes in one trim level that is luxurious and well-appointed, with only key options: DVD entertainment system, 4WD. Other features are a ten-speaker Bose system, DVD-based navigation system, leather trim for all seats, dual-climate control, 18" chrome alloy wheels, an adaptive cruise control system, and a precrash system. Also known as a collision avoidance system, it is a safety system designed to reduce the severity of an accident. It uses radar and sometimes laser and camera sensors to detect an imminent crash. These systems may warn the driver, precharge the brakes, inflate seats for extra support, move the passenger seat, position head rests to avoid whip lash, tension seat belts and automatically apply partial or full braking to minimize impact. Buzz Lightyear would approve of this technology., , It is built in Canton, Mississippi and was the the first Infiniti built in the US. The QX56 has become a success for Infiniti, outselling the Lexus LX. Our QX56 is Kashmir (Beige) in color with Willow (Beige) leather and has 99,274 miles., , We know, as in most instances, it all comes down to personal choice. One buys what one is comfortable with. If you want a luxury SUV with plenty of power, space and versatility, then the QX56 could be right for you. Stop in today for a look or call VINCE at 515-289-2898 for more information.
