Well I am planning on trading my 2004 Ralliart for the 2005 Nissan Pathfinder up coming spring. Going to be snowboarding, skiing, camping, and other fun activities I plan on doing with my wife. I can't do that with the Ralliart or anything sedan car. The270hp 2005 Nissan Pathfinder will not only take me on trips but can take me places most sedans can't go.

Anyways, any feedbacks on my decision? How you feel about the trade in value? I'm either getting the pathfinder or Xterra. Thanks

 

Heh I just got rid of my SUV for a Ralliart - I will never go back. Slow gas guzzling pieces of ****e!

In all seriousness, if you spend a lot of time with outdoor activites - an SUV or truck is a necessity. Be prepared to drop a few bills a month in gas alone though.

 

Well, personally, I hate SUV's, but if I were to roll one the Pathfinder would probably be up high on the list. Just don't upgrade the hell out of the headlights and blind all us small-car guys when you roll up behind us ok?

 

my dad has a 03 thaoe , god i hate thing, theres seriosly no fun in that car

 

Well yeah, but that's a GIANT domestic thing... heh.

 

It is a giant machine! 270hp V6 machine!

SUVs, minivans, pick-ups... man those are boring to drive! You can't go further in the wrong direction as far as handling and power to weight ratio is concerned. It's like trying to get an elephant to fly... you have to sling it damn hard, and it might do some good damage when it lands!

No offense intended... just my humble opinion...

But people who know me are accustomed of me finding the positive side of every situation, so here it is: The guy who will land your almost brand new RA at such a really nice price is freaking lucky! He might even have a good chunk of money to spare and install some insane mods on that thing... and even post pics of it for our enjoyment afterwards! Ain't that nice?!?
