First SUV

2006 Nissan Pathfinder SE 4dr SUV 4WD (4.0L 6cyl 5A)

This is our first SUV. We got the comfort and premimum packages. We needed the room for all the baby stuff, such as strollers, playpens, toys, etc..Even with all the baby stuff in the back we still had plenty of room after our Costco shopping trip too. The net and tie down anchors come in very handy. The handling around corners and going up and down hills is great. There is a lot of power, but you always feel in complete control. A very high quality vehicle.

2006 Nissan Pathfinder LE 4dr SUV 4WD (4.0L 6cyl 5A)

Forget for a moment that this SUV just looks cool, forget that you can get a completely loaded LE for about 5k less than a 4Runner w/o DVD and NAV. And just focus on the fact that this machine is fun to drive. I traded in my G35 for something that would handle better and the snow. I thought I would be giving up comfort and performance but that was not the case. This SUV has incredible pick up for a standard engine, very comfortable seats and loads of features (STANDARD!!!) With so much to chose from I was becoming overloaded with info, but when it came down to it - Price, Quality, Performance and Design all came in one package - the Pathfinder. I'm thrilled with this purchase.

2006 Pathfinder SE

I traded a 2001 xtera which was also a fine truck. The pathfinder was a little noisy until I put good tires on it and the noise level dropped quite a bit. My se is very tight fitting, solid on door closing I find the front seats very comfortable and my wife likes the electronic pedal adjustment. We tow a 23" boat with no problem. 45,000 miles and not one problem. Over all the best truck I have owned.

Tranny

There is a problem with the pathfinder that seems to be happening everywhere. For some reason the coolant from the radiator is leaking into the tranmisson and it is killing the tranny. Nissan says that is your problem not theirs. That is a cost of 7000 to fix. Can not afford to take that chance. Traded in my nissan and got another car and will never buy a nissan again.

This is my third Pathfinder and the best one yet. I'm very happy with the changes in design and the size was a needed change for me as my family keeps getting bigger! My wife even enjoys driving it, as it handles comfortably like a car. Look for me to get the next one when it comes out.
