Sold the TL
... and got a QX 
Car wont be driven everyday but in fact will be used as family hauler, it was either an SUV or a minivan and as much as I like the Odyssey I couldnt fathom the idea of buying a minivan
.
06 with 32k miles, navi, entertainment package etc etc
I was never an SUV fan but had to give in to family needs, also looked at the new and old LX (470/570) the 470 wasnt roomy enough and the 570 is too chunky IMO .

Congrats!
Personally wouldnt want an SUV that big and would rather have gone with the Odyssey. Easier to drive for me and that means more than my image.
I do like the wheels on the QX though. 22s?

My younger brother drove it back from Chicago this morning and he had a set of wheels already waiting for the truck, they are 22 AFAIK.
Congrats on the purchase.

Congrats! We just got a new QX in February and our thought was much like yours...hell no to a minivan and the QX fit our needs the best compared to what else we looked at (Sequoia, Escalade, Denali, LX570, GL450).
Congrats! The rims really compliment the look of the vehicle.
I'm not a truck guy.
