How many people will you be carrying on a regular basis? That makes the difference!!

My regular load will be carrying two boys (4 and 7) plus a St. Bernard. I almost always take the dog to work with me. So my regular setup will be two kids in car seats on the captain chairs. Overall I think I would have been happier with the bench seat for now. The huge center console is mostly wasted space right now. But I'm getting used to it. Plus a bench would have been better to block the dog. But no Platinum's with bench seats around here. The nice thing about these covers is they allow you to move all the seats up or down without removing it.

The QX is very unreliable and has safety issues like brake failures and skid control malfunctions. It is noisy, rough riding and drinks gas (much worse than the ratings show). Either the Navigator or Expedition would be a better choice as well as the Tahoe/Suburban.

In my opinion, after owning both an LX470 (kind of like a Sequoia) and a QX56, as well as many other Toyotas & Nissans, you will always be happier with a Toyota product. Check out the brake problems on Google with the Q, it is scary. This dealer service from Nissan/Infinity can't compare to Toyota/Lesxus or even Chevrolet.
