Very nice SUV..

I really like it all around runs great . Only issue I am concerned about is the gas gauge isnt working not sure what is going on there and it is saying the tires need air they take 35 and that is what is in them so there is an issue there .

I’ve owned it for 16 years!

I have fallen in love with it more every year since I bought it off the lot in 2006! Dependable and reliable with low maintenance cost. I have never had any issues and it now has 145K miles on it.

Best vehicle ive ever owned

Bought my 2006 pathfinder se used in 2019. They are known to have tranny issues, luckily mine had been redone correctly before i purchased it. That would be the only,single conplaint i have. The engine is so strong, and powerful. The new tranny is tight shifting and perfect. It is very fast for a large suv woth tow package. I have 6cd changer,and leather interrio that is beyond comfortable. I love the window tint that comes on it. All the interrior plastics are heavy duty and tightly put together. Every single thing works inside,and out. I literally have no complaints. Pleanty of room for passengers or for storage. Everything is perfect. Id recommend to anyone. This is the best vehicle ive ever owned and driven. Good has milage. Its top of the line for the price.

Best truck ever

I am absolutely in love with my 2006 pathfinder. At nearly 200,000 miles it runs like a dream. It handles perfectly and drives like a performance vehicle with the safety and durability of a truck. With a family of three, it is perfectly sized For all of our storage needs. I feel safe transporting my family and making it through the harsh Buffalo winters.

Work horse - Very Reliable

The Pathfinder has been a great family car for the 5 of us. We drove it for the last 10 years over 130,000 miles. Still runs strong, but replacing now. Pushed snow down the interstate on ski trips. Replaced parts as they wore out, but drive train is solid. Fun to drive as well.

The Best Car I've Owned

This Nissan Pathfinder is my baby. It has never let me down and is in great condition. Im moving out of the country and therefore wont need this car anymore. Ive always made sure its clean and up to date and its never been in an accident. There was only one owner prior to me and according to the carfax it has never been in any accidents either. Two front leather seats are peeling off a little bit, thats why it comes with 2 black seat covers. It has a DVD player that also plays CD. Navigation system, Bose speakers. Black Outside, Beige Leather Seats. Sunroof/moonroof. Plenty of space in the back if you lower the last row seats. If I could take it with me, I would. New Battery, new spark plugs and recently been to the garage for a check up. Check engine light will stay on, mechanic says its a digital thing with older model cars. There is nothing wrong with the engine, just the coding within the system that tells the car to light up that check engine light. The CD player is jammed. I bought it like that, never felt the need to take the CD out because I can play CD out of the DVD Player. It is a 6-CD Player.

Exactly what the wife wanted!

Roomy, comfy, options the wife never knew she needed! Big engine means I can enjoy driving it, 4 wheel drive so we can drive through the toughest Minnesota winters and not worry about anything!
