They took out the hard drive for the music because most people have smartphones now days, so there is no need for it. Also, you can use a thumb drive like you were saying.Thanks for the input guys, I feel like I have done quite a bit of research and we even took a QX60 home for a two nights as well. We liked it a lot and I think that's the way we will end up going. I just can't justify the cost difference for the BMW or Mercedes and I doubt the Q7 is going to wow me that much to justify the $6k or so difference there either but I will still go look at it for comparison. Also, we have two small kids and a medium sized dog so the ability to access the 3rd row with the car seat in place is huge for us. I wish Infiniti had the hard drive music system that Acura, BMW etc have but you can get around that by putting your music on a flash drive and leaving it in the car so that's not a deal breaker.
I agree here 100%. The smaller wheels have better tires for snow if you are going to leave them stock. If you are looking for a family SUV that has easiest in class access to the third row, as well as the luxury and reliability you want in this segment, get the Infiniti.My thoughts? If you want to put all three wheels on rollers and still move the car, don't buy this car. If you want an awesome awd vehicle that performs pretty well in snow on the stock tires (smaller wheels come with better tires for snow IMO), and really well with snow tires, buy the QX60.
If you want an Infiniti that will pass that "test", buy the QX80.
I have an 06 M35x and it has been incredible - even in several inches of snow we received last year in November (with snow tires). I am sure my QX60 is going to be good - I'm more curious to know why Infiniti's AWD wouldn't allow the QX60 to drive off with three wheels on rollers.My thoughts?

LOLZWouldn't that video mean that BMW and Acura's should never get stuck in the snow? - wonder if that's actually true.
