1998 Used Nissan Pathfinder 4 Dr XE 4WD SUV Review

We liked the Pathfinder. It was a fun car, and it handled quite well...with one exception. Tommy almost killed himself in this darn car. He was driving around Cambridge. The roads were wet, but it was...

Once they start rusting... watch out.  Once metal is exposed it gets nasty.  Overall the performance is unexceptional, but it's got where it needs it.  With smaller tires is very easy to park.  The price is at the high end of the after market however if you get an aftermarket warranty then it's worth the price.

Pros: Stability
Cons: Body rust

Great Vehicle, only downfall is the gas mileage isnt the greatest. would buy another one for sure, the four wheel drive will be nice in the winter. seems to work great, no real problems with the vehicle yet. would totally recommend one to someone else

Pros: Four wheel drive
Cons: Gas Mileage

I like the overall performance but I hate it's inside, and specially the back spare-wheel. It's hideous.
I hate the CD player. It keep breaking down. Even when it is working OK, music keeps interrupted at every speed hump or rough road.

Pros: Powerfull engine and smooth suspension
Cons: lousy job for the outside and inside.

The bass on the car isn't bad and the overall sound
system is good.  The interior is quite nice nothing is
ripped or falling off.  The fact that it is a stick is
amazing, it is a blast to do burn outs in and the E
brake is hand operated so you can drift on dirt and
gravel roads quite easily.

Pros: Not a lot of rust for the north woods
Cons: it could have a better sound system

Its been 10 years with this SUV in my family and I've used it on/off. Only once could be consider that a mayor repair was made to it but the engine hasn't been opened yet for anything. Its Nissan yes and its a good product. I still see older models running on the street with no problem and this could be an SUV you would want to have for a long time if your intentions is to keep it over 5 or 6 years. The interior is very nice and at same time you can use it in the city but also in the outdoors if needed. Puerto Rico is a sunny island but sometimes heavy rain can fall anytime and depended where you are floods can happen. This SUV lets my family and I drive it with no problem. Nissan Pathfinder damn good product.

Pros: 200 thousand miles and its still running very nicely and hope to put in some more miles in it. 10 years with us, 10 years...thats a serious relationship we have and one that will keep living for a long time. Love how durable it is, no signs of rust and strong. Still intimidates the other compact cars that stand next to it at the stop light.
Cons: I wish the rare suspension was better and well it is know with the new models but for the time it came out most SUV suspensions were like this. Also it has to much liter for the little horsepower it has but again something that the new models.
