I don't miss my Nissan

I traded in a fully loaded 2002 Nissan Frontier 4WD for the Mariner. My pickup averaged 17 mpg. The Mariner is supposed to get 29 highway and 33 city. The 29 highway is attainable. I think the 33 city is a tad ambitious but probably could be done if you do a LOT of driving at 25 mph or less. I've gone through two tanks of gas and so far have gotten it up to 28 mpg. You have to have a very light foot on the accerator. If you're really good, you can get the Mariner up to 30 mph before the gas engine kicks in. I love driving it and it's great sitting at lights for minutes at a time knowing that I'm not burning any gas. Trying to conserve fuel makes you allow more time to get where you're going.

The Hybrid is fun to drive and is very responsive. If you drive the speed limit and irritate the drivers behind you, the mpg for combined city/highway is around 33 mpg. In town only I have averaged 36 mpg. For the size of the SUV and the gas mileage I get, this is a very nice combination.

More Power Than My Range Rover

Driving this four cylinder hybrid is like driving an eight cylinder car. It powers up hills with a light touch on the accelerator. The hardest part is driving conservatively so you can maximize the mileage. The temptation is to go for it.

Road Trip

My wife and I recently completed a 4800 mile road trip in our new Mariner hybrid, From Northern California through Nev., Idaho, Wyoming, S.D., Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, N.M., Ari z. and back to Ca. The vehicle ran great with excellent performance and we got 31.6 MPG. Actually were doing much better but on the way back the desert of N.M.,Ariz and Ca, really brought it down. Very good ride with good handling and no problems.

Yucky steering

Totally disappointed in the steering characteristics of this automobile in its present state it certainly isn't intended to be a highway car. It's like a car with a poor caster setting. Requires full-time grip on the steering wheel to ensure a straight ahead track. Perhaps there is an adjustment that can be made but mechanics in my area are unaware.
