Best vehicle I have owned.

I bought this vehicle 10 years ago & now have over 200,000 miles on odometer. Best vehicle I have owned & I have had many. Very little repairs needed. I drive it every day, pull trailers with it & never failed to start.

Low mileage but terrible vehicle

The vehicle had low mileage but it squeaks, drives rough and didn't smell very good. The vehicle will need lots if work to be up to par.

Just watched odo turn 100,000 miles!

I went from a Hummer H3 to my Pathfinder and I'll never look back. The third row seating is amazing with my family of four.

Rugged but high maintenance

We bought the v8 4wd without needing the v8 for anything other than the joy of driving it. It gets 15 mpg if you baby it, 13 mpg if you hammer on it and always seems to need something repaired but we love it. It’s uncomfortable, unstable and guzzles fuel but it’s super fun to drive, looks cool, it’s good off road and it’s great in the snow. It’s faster than most cars, tows like a truck and its easy to park. The leg room is terrible front and rear, it feels really top heavy and it costs me about $1600 in annual repairs. That being said, it has true 4wd, over 310hp, tons of torque, looks cool and I would totally buy another one.

Great car

The car is perfect for my family. We are a family of 5 and it is a great car. It's got a lot of room where my kids can be separated on long trips and have no fighting.

My friends are jealous

I love my 2008 LE V8, I bought this used about 6 months ago after a hail storm totalled my 09 SE V6. The difference is substantial. It's my grocery getting race car. It's super quiet and it's the ultimate sleeper. I've had kids in their f150s try and race me and I leave them bewildered and embarrassed but aside from raw power this thing is refined and puts around just fine. The only problem I had was cracked exhaust manifolds but after having them repaired it's been perfect. If you can find one that's not been abused, pick one up. It's a pleasure to drive and the features are great. Mine is an LE 4x4 and in my opinion it is the best multipurpose vehicle around.

Hated to trade it in

Loved my Pathfinder. But we got a third dog and when the puppy got big and needed a larger crate there simply wasn't enough room to put a third big dog crate in it. With regular maintenance it ran like a top for 253,000 miles.
