The QX50 is one of the nicest midsized, smallish SUVs you can climb into – if you are a normal midsized to smallish adult.
First, no one can argue with the luxury and the style. Infiniti, the luxury offshoot of Nissan, has never left buyers wanting for creature comforts and style. Long ago, someone at Nissan thought the better way to give Nissan buyers a hint of satin with a lot of satin accents was to just create a whole new car line, and thus, Infiniti was born. The QX50 is a flagship SUV of sorts for Infiniti and Nissan, if you will, though the two car companies will go to lengths to tell you that they are indeed two separate car companies. This year’s QX50 is restyled and is good both on-road and off-road, and offers drivers and passengers and nice mix of style and ruggedness that can be taken anywhere, yet doesn’t lose track of its humble roots as captain of a rather nice prep school. The QX50 really is worth consideration if you want that kind of SUV – and if you aren’t a man of size, but as we know if you are reading this, you are indeed a man of size. And stature.
I really shouldn’t say that too loudly because large men can indeed get into the QX50 and have a gay ole time. What constitutes a man of size? You really don’t know until you get there, but let’s just say that I, at 1/8 a ton, experienced some snugness in the backseats, and I do consider myself rather limber – for a fat arse. Just so you know, I did get some of my ‘normal’-sized adult friends in the QX50 and they got in just fine. They commented on the plush interior and how beautiful and velvety it was, how everything just seem to be right where it should be and how it just screamed of Downton Abbey meeting The Beverly Hillbillies to go for ride in first class about town in the Starship Enterprise. All was well for those normal-size (I call them fun size) adults.
But us larger gays do have our challenges, don’t we? You can easily spend $50K on a QX50 and, trust me, it would be worth it, but make sure it gives you the room you need. All that style and kush may get a little old if you feel like you are wearing a girdle, as is often the case with many a vehicle.
And maybe a more basic question should be asked: Do bears really need luxury? Can we not get by with just the basics and room, lotsa room? Hey, I’m not the right bear to be asking that question.
My idea of roughing it is to stay at a hotel that is better known as a motor lodge.
