It is kind of funny. However, a lot of people go for the most car they can afford and some end up with cash flow discomfiture.

Hello All,
Actually, I'm interested in fuel mileage too,
although, I know I'll end up spending some
big bucks for quality. Currently I have a 2001
Mercedes ML320 and got 21 mpg, highway,
on a 2,200 mile trip! I'm amazed that a 2008
Infinity FX35 AWD only gets 20 mph highway!
What's with that? Yet there are Makes that are
worse! I was looking at the BMW X-3, but it
seems to have some quality problems according
to the reviews. I've ridden in the back seat of
a Lexus RX 350 and one definitely needs to be
seat-belted in due to the sway! Maybe the
Infinity EX will be better on mpg! BTW- the
one thing that I didn't see on the FX were side-
steps or step rails. I really don't like that, plus,
side-steps cut down, somewhat, on car door
dings and that would be nice since there doesn't
seem to be any protective side molding. On another
note - I liked the Infinity Site because it has a
"contact us" feature that BMW doesn't have. Also,
the BMW site is Not APPLE friendly and one cannot
do "Builds" when using an Apple computer.

Can't compare a FX35 with your ML320. FX has bigger engine, more torque, AWD, thus less fuel mileage. It has a slightly harsh ride but handles like a beast on winding roads. I get 20.4MPG and love every mile. It's the odd ugly look of the FX that gives it a unique sex appeal that makes you stare. If you want side steps, get a Volvo SUV. But you don't put crutches on a super model.
