1991 Nissan Pathfinder SE-V6

1991 Nissan Pathfinder SE 4dr SUV 4WD
Best vehicle I have ever owned. I am a
Chevy salesman and I am more impressed
with my Nissan than anything I have
driven.

1992 Nissan Pathfinder XE 4dr SUV
I am 17, and my red '92 pathfinder is a hand-me-down from my stepdad. It's a 5 speed, and it never breaks. Ever. 280K and counting! It's fun to drive, and I have the OEM metal bumper guard on the front and the swinging metal gate with a spare on the back. My friends and I feel more safe and comfortable in this car than any of my friends feel in their own! The car has personality, and … that's hard to find these days. If I shift low and coast in neutral often (I live in a hilly place) I can get between 18-23 mpg. I love that the car is high enough off the ground to keep me safer than, say, a sedan, but not high enough for me to feel disconnected from the road. It's also pretty easy to park.
5 out of 5 stars
The best SUV in the world.

1991 Nissan Pathfinder SE 4dr SUV 4WD
There has never been a situation in
which this truck did not perform at
it's peak. I have not been able to get
it stuck yet. And with 160,000 miles
on it and still running great, I will
never buy anything other than a Nissan
Pathfinder.

Great truck, absolutely everything works! This V6 has a pump & sending unit in the tank, access panel on top. Ours was reading only in the middle. We cleaned the varestat with carb cleaner and scotchbright as well as the wiper. It works good as new, the tank is 20 gallons not 15 as listed in many manuals. We also installed a bull bar as the front end is weak.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 1992 Nissan Pathfinder, so we've included reviews for other years of the Pathfinder since its last redesign.
