Awesome car to drive. Great room that I can fit my military service dog that's a Shepard Boxer mix in the back with my kids. Only hiccup is you can't change the headlights or taillights bulbs(normally) you have to buy the complete assembly. Safety comfort and fuel I getting 29-30 mpg in city 36 hwy.

Insurance will hurt your pockets

I love my car but my insurance is $2800 a year with 28 years driving history, good credit, zero accidents/points and I live in the county in a small town. I’m being charged for the “what ifs”. They look at how much it “will” cost for replace something or cover a total loss. But, if I have to file a claim that totals an amount that receives “points” my insurance will then go up. So I’m being charged for the “what ifs” and if these happen I will be charged again. Buy an American made car. A 2021 Dodge challenger scat pack has cheaper insurance. If that puts things into perspective.

Love my Maxima SL

I did a lot of research on quiet sedans.The Maxima was the quietest of all, which was my primary goal. I actually used a free DB meter to compare road noise and it was better than much higher end brands I test drove. I ended up with the SL which has 18 inch tires as apposed to the Platinum with 19 inch. The reason being a smoother ride with the 18 inch tires. Very quiet driving around town, and mostly quiet on the highway, with the exception of roads being repaved, or roads with more grating to keep from sliding. Carpay is excellent. It's a solid well engineered car with lots of bells and whistles for the price. Overall I love the handling, drive, and comfort of this Nissan. I've taken a few long road trips so far and really enjoyed the ride.
