I Love My New Car

I drive my red Pathfinder with pride. It, really, turns heads. It is comfortable and secure, with plenty of storage. My only problems have been electrical issues and I am disappointed with the gas mileage. Hopefully a recent repair and with breaking in the engine will solve both issues.

7 Seater was the reason we bought this car.

7 people can easily fit in the vehicle and that's the only reason we bought this car. The exterior look was also a factor when we chose this over Honda Pilot. There are lots of Pros if you are looking for a sizable car and here are some Pros: It is very spacious inside. The S Trim also has a touch screen but no useful apps. All the fancy big screen is for radio station selection and climate controls. We played around with SV and SL trims and we weren't impressed with the apps included in them.

CONs: Disappointing MPG's averaging only 17-18 around town (I drive with a light foot) and low 20's on the Hwy. Today after a 5 min warm-up (temp was 10 degrees) the transmission would not shift into the higher gears, the tach revved aprox 3,000RPM at 30MPH, it took a VERY LONG time before the transmission shifted properly, I'm hoping this will not be a problem. The front camera is not working and the passengers front headrest will not seat all the way despite multiple attempts. PRO's: Very comfortable and quite ride, front heated seats are a welcome this time of year as is the heated steering wheel. The bluetooth works about 95% of the time, not sure why. The interior is cavernous and there is ample storage with the 3rd row in a down position. The front and rear sunroofs fill the interior with day light and make the vehicle seem larger than it is. This truck is loaded with options which we are still exploring, it will take a little time to acclimate to the Pathfinder considering we migrated from a 1st generation Murano.
