Best vehicle ever owned

Needed to upgrade our towing capacity from a 4 Runner as well as provide an everyday vehicle for my wife. This SUV meets all our needs as camping grandparents. Hauling around extended family and plenty of room and power for camping trips towing 7,000 lb trailer. This vehicle is an Infinity clone based on the Global Nissan patrol and the interior shows this with none of that cheap plastic look and 20,000 less than an Infiniti. We got the 2wd model but the 4wd model, from reviews, is a capable off road vehicle. Google `Nissan Patrol? for more reviews. I highly recommend this vehicle.

Excellent Car

I love this car, I was looking for something with three rows because I have too many children in car seats to fit across a second row. I purchased an Armada with bucket seats, in hopes I could remove the center console to allow my daughter to access the third row. Unfortunately, when removing the console, there are metal rods that stick up and we found it was not feasible. Keep that in mind if you are looking for a child to access the third row without folding the second row seats (if you are like me, have car seats in the second row and cannot fold the seats with the car seats in place). Aside from that glitch in design, this is an amazing car.

Best Large SUV on the market

Excellent options and features for less than competitors, great styling, excellent power, smooth and quiet ride, luxurious interior, reasonable fuel mileage for a large SUV (13.5L/100km on highway),excellent passenger room and storage space. Only thing I don't like is the Infotainment system and instrument cluster could be more refined.

Forget the Other Full Size SUV?s

I had no intention of buying an suv this big but once I test drove the Armada and saw the price with all of the Nissan incentives, I couldn?t say no. It handles like a large car and is smooth and quiet and powerful.

Great SUV for the money

This SUV is exactly what our family needs. This is the 3rd Armada that we have purchased. Having the 3rd row bench seat is the only way to go for our family. We had to search for 100's of miles to find one with the bench seat.

Best car I have ever owned by Far!

I am 67 years old! I have owned many vehicles over the years but this Armada is the best! If your thinking about a trip or just to the store......this is one roomy and very comfortable vehicle to ride in!

My 4th Armada

Love my 2017 SL. Only issue is the engine compartment is open to road splashing. You can see the engine looking in to the wheel wells. Looks like plastic shields are missing but the dealer assures me their not.

Very comfortable vehicle, spacious

We were looking for a vehicle that is comfortable and spacious, the seats were the deal breaker. Looking forward to many miles of enjoyment with this vehicle. The all wheel drive is something new to us and living in this climate and at our age, we should feel safer in our travels.
