Bought this 2WD model used. V6 runs like a V8 and drinks fuel like it too. Pretty confortable and roomy too.

This is out second Nissan, first being our trade in, Altima, 140,000 miles and running strong. This SUV is a great vehicle. The engine is very strong and the 4wd system gets us through the snow everytime. It is very solid with a sturdy feel to it. The doors might be a little too heavy, trouble closing first time. If you are mechanically inclined, I advise doing the service's yourself. $$$$ dealerships charge way too much. Plenty of cargo room and the Bose system is fantastic. Great all around SUV.

I have had all tires replaced due to a shimmy that couldn't be fixed; 3 oxegyn sensors replaced, cd player stopped working and had to be replaced; driver's seat stopped moving forward and backward, etc. It's too bad Nissan delivers vehicles with all of these annoying little problems, because the vehicle is great in so many other ways (performance, front seats, features). Mine is leased and I will return it to Nissan when the lease expires and go back to Toyota.

I bought my Pathfinder new, and although I am about ready to trade it in, I have loved everything about it from the day I got it. It rides well, it handles well, it still looks great.

Various sensors always seem to be burning out, especially O2 sensors. I've gone thru 5 in the last 2 years. I also had the CD changer replaced 4 times. If you're going to buy one of these get the extended warranty! I wish I had splurged and bought the MDX. At 35,000 I got backed into by a dump truck and it has never ridden right since. Can't really blame the vehicle for this, but after 8 trips you would think the dealer could fix the horrible vibration. I'll keep this as a beater and buy a fun car to drive.
