Delightful experience

A very tight, well-put-together large SUV with exceptional performance and neat features without getting to far out of sight on expenses. My Armada cost $48,350 and has many of the same features found on vehicles costing ten to twenty-thousand dollars more. I especially like the back-up camera and courtesy lights. Ride greats. Shifts into auto, 4hi-4lo very well. I plan to drive to AK and tow a trailer this summer- I'll give updates...stay tuned!

The Nissan I've Been Waiting For

I traded my 2002 Tahoe 5.3L. What a difference! Not only is the fit and finish far superior, the Armada is also roomier, faster and more powerful. I love blowing by those weak SUVs on the uphill grades of California's freeways as they struggle to make the grade! I realize the unfortunate trade off is gas mileage. This thing guzzle fuel like crazy. I'm guessing that Nissan will release the hybrid version in 2008, one model year after the Tahoe '07 hybrid. I'll give'em a year to work out the bugs and come back for my 2009 Armada hybrid.

I love my armada. It is gigantic but my girlfriend who is very short has no problem driving it because of the adjustable pedals. That said, the rotors warped after about 2500 miles but nissan replaced for free in less than 3 hours.- Seems like it might be a common problem but 6000 mi later the new brakes are still OK. Overall the car is great. I had a ford explorer before and surprisingly the armada gets better milage with a bigger engine and more power.

Nissan Armada is wonderful! It Drives great, looks great, has the best technology package available in large SUV. The best navigation system and user friendly! We get compliments on how great it is everywhere we go! I am glad I didn't get the over priced H2 or Escalade
