2009 Infiniti FX50 S

In our last update of the FX50, we reported on the Lane Departure Warning system, whose incessant beeps can become especially annoying. We then received an e-mail from Infiniti PR guy Kyle Bazemore, who informed us that the system can be permanently turned off. Huh? (Guess we should have checked the manual.) To deactivate the system, simply depress the LDW button for four seconds, and voilà! Better yet, to reactivate the system, say, for a long highway stretch, simply hit the button once. With the bothersome beeps under control, it's much easier to enjoy the plush interior. Per associate Web editor Kirill Ougarov, "The cabin is laid out intelligently with good ergonomics and materials."
