Referring to the Carconnection review on the front page for XOC...Comparing the new 05 X to the International Scout, Bronco, Cherokee...dont think there was a negative word in the piece...sounds like Nissan has another hit on their hands...

Not sure the guy really knows what he is talking about...

"Before, as with many vehicles with folding seats, if you folded the back seats forward you couldn't recline the front seats. Now you can completely remove the lower back-seat cushion if needed - rather than flip it forward as before - so that the front seat has its normal range of adjustability and the back seat is completely flat for cargo at the same time." Taken from Flashy roof rack improvement paragraph.

Its almost as if he is speculating his stuff based off of different stat sheets. Hmmmmm....

Still fun reading!
