Antuan Goodwin gained his automotive knowledge the old fashioned way, by turning wrenches in a driveway and picking up speeding tickets. From drivetrain tech and electrification to car audio installs and cabin tech, if it's on wheels, Antuan is knowledgeable.

The 2011 Quest is built on the same D-platform that is the foundation of the current Nissan Maxima and Altima sedans and Murano crossover SUV, but with a longer 118.1-inch wheelbase (200.8-inches overall).

Passengers interact with the cabin tech package via a 4.3-inch color audio display on SV and SL models or an 8-inch touch-screen display for LE models with navigation. The navigation system is hard-drive-based with 9.3GB dedicated to music storage, XM NavTraffic Real-Time Traffic Information, XM NavWeather, and Zagat Survey Restaurant Guide.

Don't expect any surprises under the hood; Nissan's stalwart VQ-series 3.5-liter DOHC V-6 make yet another appearance here, sending 253 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque through a CVT to the front wheels.

The Quest looks a bit like a brick on wheels, but Nissan claims that the Quest S model's 0.32 Cd makes it more aerodynamic than it appears.
