Good Solid SUV
All around this car is solid. Good design inside and out. Great feel when driving. More than enough power when you need it. Very comforable in the front and back seats. My first SUV and my wife and I love it.
A few minor changes & it would be great!
I have been driving my new 2003 Pathfinder LE for almost a year now and I love it. The overall exterior and interior styling is what attraced me to it most. Everything inside is easy to read and very easy on the eye. I also have a 17 foot Four Winns speed boat that it tows with ease. You can actually fold down the rear seats, tilt the front seats all the way back (right up to the rear seat) and you have yourself a very comfortable bed.

It is LOVELY
I have had several SUV in the past, and this is the niciest one ever, the carlike hanndling, smooth drive everywhere you go, powerful engine and the features are easy to operated...
First Nissan Owned
What a great vehicle which has been underrated by the press. This SUV is very well engineered inside and out and appears to be solidly constructed (owned for 3 months). It drives very well for an SUV and even handles better than many cars on the road. The purchase process with the Nissan dealer was better than I ever imagined buying a new car could be.
The Most "Car Like" SUV on the Market!!
Handles like a car! Very fast and handles turns with no body roll! Dealer was excellent also, very knowlegable, curtious, and friendly. Visited quite a few and would never buy from any other dealer but Kelly of Lynnfield.
Great SUV!
This is a great SUV and I am so happy with the Pathfinder. The only detracting feature is the gas mileage. Other than that, I would say that the Pathfinder is top notch! We got a heck of deal on the Pathfinder, considering that it was going for about 27,000 at invoice we paid about 3,000 below that. The ride runs well and sitting up high is really nice as well. If you are in the market for a midsize SUV, then this is the one to get.
I love this car
Great car, fast, sporty. I feel like I am in a luxury automobile with the leather and wood interior.
Almost Overlooked this SUV
This SUV had flown under the radar with me. When my Explorer finally died, I sort of stumbled across the Pathfinder when a friend told me to check out the Xterra (!). I did my research (including Edmunds) and saw that the Pathfinder garnered consistently high ratings from both reviewers and consumers. All it took was one test drive for me to say "this is the one". It handles superbly, has a lot of power, and is very comfortable. It doesn't have the latest body styling, but I actually find it very attractive, especially in the Platinum Edition. This is a smaller midsize (why do they keep getting bigger?) that sure fits the bill
GREAT SUV!!!!
I TRADED MY FORD EXPEDITION IN FOR MY NISSAN. THIS SUV IS A GREAT ALL AROUND VEHICLE. ITS BETTER ON FUEL,COMFORT, AND OVERALL HANDLING. I HAVE NO BAD THINGS TO SAY ABOUT MY PATHFINDER. I ALSO THINK OVERALL YOU GET A GEAT PERFORMANCE SUV FOR A GREAT PRICE.
Fantastic SUV!
Wow! 'Got the superblack color and it's like a limo! Powerful, quiet, smooth ride and handles great! I recently moved - now have a 45 minute commute but look forward to the drive every morning and and every evening! Best vehicle I've every owned. Highly recommend!
So far, so good!
This is my second Nissan - my last vehicle was an Xterra and we were looking for a bit more room and towing capacity. My husband didn't particularly like the looks of the Pathfinder (though I like it a lot!), but it was a great deal since the new '05 models are arriving and dealers are working to get the 04's off their lots. My Xterra was very reliable and fun to drive, and the Pathfinder is the same, but with more power and comfort features. We tow our motorcycles to local race-tracks and look forward to the added power. If the 4-wheel drive system is as effective as the one on my Xterra, it should be great to drive in the snowy mountains this winter when we go snowboarding.
Nissan Platinum Edition
Have nothing but wonderful things to report about my Pathfinder. It is my first SUV and I could not be more pleased with its comfort. Am particularly happy with the way it drives---frankly, it is MUCH easier to handle than the Grand Marquis I traded! The performance is magnificent.....very powerful, smooth ride, and no problems todate. The interior is so comfortable and roomy; love the sun roof! Second-row seat folds down. GORGEOUS luminous gold....It is my LSU Fightin' Tigers vehicle!
I like mine
I have put 1500 miles on mine and I have concluded that "I like it". It has power, comfort simple to operate and handles very well. Great for hurricanes and remodeling. It can easily haul 12 sheets of plywood or sheetrock if you fold the rear seat down and lay 2 2x4s on the top of the folded read seat back - I was unable to do that with the Durango or 4-Runner. Only thing I'd change is the location of the oil filter. Its a bear to get to. Great little vehicle.
A few detailed changes for a perfect 10
Absolutely love to drive this SUV with car like features. Handling is great, quiet ride and ok fuel comsumption. Definetly needs rear hatch release instead of glass release only or ability to open glass from back of vehicle without using driver side release.
Not bad - at all
Third Nissan in this household (Stanza, Maxima, and now Pathfinder. Got a good deal at end of year (October), so easy choice. It is a high profile vehicle (like any SUV), so does not like sidewind much. Does however like its gas.
Overall a Very Classy and Reliable SUV
The body's bold, classy, and muscular lines as well as the very well appointed and up-scale interior are like no other SUV and really attracted us. We went Nissan again for the third time!! The power, comfort, and handling are great. This SUV has great materials as well as fit and finish. After 28000 very hard miles the only problem to date is that the rear drum brakes squeal when cold. An easy fix. The gas mileage is about average but the tank should be a little bigger for more range. The rear seat is a little cramped for 6- footers. Great otherwise. Rear storage is good. If you want a classy but reliable SUV pick this one!!!
Japan Knows How To Build Realiable Cars!
Japan and Its people sure know how to Build Reliable and Maintenance Free or no Trouble Cars!! Especially Nissan!
My baby!
With 41,000 miles in 3 years, she still purrs like a kitten every day. Trips to Home Depot or even putting 4 golf bags in the back is easy. Black on black, leather, loaded! She eats up the snow in the winter. What a great machine!
Nearly Flawless
After 2 years and 23K miles, the performance has been nearly flawless. I have towed near the 5000 lb limit with no issues (flat terrain). Drivetrain is excellent, handles like a Maxima. Though it drives like a car, this vehicle is still very much a truck - and you can treat it like a truck and it's perfectly content. My nits: 1. Bose stereo could use a little more volume. 2. "Pathfinder" logo separated from floor mat. 3. Minor rattle behind dash. So pleased with this vehicle that I bought an '06 Pathfinder to replace minivan.
Tough little SUV
I was drawn to the 2004 Pathfinder for its styling and performance. This SUV is loaded with options that make driving and riding enjoyable in all weather conditions. Will keep it forever!
Best car ever
Bought my 2004 pathfinder second hand about 2013, for $15000. It now has 400000 kms on the clock. It has needed repair 3 times , and repairs for quick and .a few hundred dollars each time.I just love this car. My mechanic is telling me I need to think about replacing it soon but it still goes beautifully and I just love it. Best car I have ever had. Handles off rd well too

Fair vehicle, could be better
I always loved the design on the Pathfinder, and this vehicle is no exception. Rides smooth, good ergonomically inside. We have the LE Platinum Addition so it has almost every option you could ever want.
The Great White Path
This is my second Nissan Pathfinder and I love this vehicle. The drive is smooth, the ride is fun and it satisfies my urge to rule the road in style. It runs our of gas too fast but that's because Texas is so big and I love visitng all the malls in the area. I would recommend this car to singles and especially working moms. Thanks
It Is Lovely
I have been driving Nissan for a long time, mostly car though. But this is wonderful, the SUV isnice, the drive is good... U have to try it
