I have an 07 Pathfinder and love it. After reviewing this new model, I dont think its that bad. Yes it does look more like a minivan but thats kinda what this car is to begin with. I think they have been losing that truck feeling more and more each generation. I use this thing to the max filling it with 7 people all the time. I also use it to fold all the seats down and haul wheels to drift events and such. I knew they were going to try and make it curvy because thats how all the new models look, but was hoping for a little boomerang on the headlights though. I think they kinda look like the new Lexus models from the front. I painted my chrome grill on mine and I suggest that for this car as well. This car is not really about a new look though, I think its about technology. The seat folding is awesome as it creates a flat bed, the downside to mine is that if I have a child seat on the seat, the other kids have to go around to the other side to get in. They have fixed that in this car. The gas mileage was good for its time getting 16-17mpg in the city and 22-23 on the highway. Now that they added CVT that should get 20 in the city and 26 on the highway. Sunroof is pretty cool. I think if you want the off road type, stick with the Xterra. Seating 7 is not really offroad material.
