Hey guys...

Couldn't be more pleased with the coupe, but I'm building a house off the beaten path with a lot of acreage. I have a banger 4x4 for fun stuff, but I'd need the FX to occasionally negotiate poor road conditions and light 4wd environment. Rainy season can be serious at times.

Do any of you spend much time off road in yours? Do you feel the FX is too sophisticated for a woodsy environment? Stock clearance going to be an issue?

I suppose I could get a nice, big-*** pickup, but I've been fond of the FX since I got the G. It certainly would make for a more comfortable commute to work, but if it simply doesn't fit the bill, I'll consider something else.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts and experience.

Mike

 

Lucky for you these fine auto enthusiasts have allready put the FX vs. an American SUV to the off-road test.

See the results there.

 

Yeah...I saw the video. Still wondering if anyone here uses the fx off road on occasion and has any constructive criticism on how it holds up.

 

sigh...I suppose your collective silence answers my question. I'll probably do it anyway.

Look for some muddy fx pics next summer.

 

i swear there was a thread like this eariler in the off-topic place about someone wrecking there FX....blah....thats not cool

 

i wouldnt use the fx for off road use - its a luxury vehicle, why spend the money and ruin it, just get an explorer or jeep

 

those guys are idiot. they ruined a good infiniti w/ 200 miles on it. they should be shot

 

i drove around a fx35 for my old job and i would describe it as a sports sedan with a backpack...i would never go off roading in it
