When I drove their Pathfinder the first thing out of my mouth was 'What's wrong with your Pathfinder??' I mean, the thing was positively anemic. I actually popped the hood open to verify that it had the same engine it was so bad. Then I checked to see if they had something obstructing the gas pedal! That thing was awful to drive! Well, guess what? My wife and I have lead foots; my parents drive like grannies. My parents are the type of people I refer to as 'pylon-imitators' when they're on the road.

Exactly what we have seen out of all the Nissans myself and my family has owned. I might have you beat man.

Gonna list them....below.

A good example is our 2001 Altima. My father drove that car for years. Everytime I got in it, felt like a dog, and weak and slow. Then my mom had to use it for a week. She also noticed it it was slow at first. But she has a lead foot. It woke up after about 2 days of driving and really felt peppy. I then drove it after she did and agreed with her that it was really peppy. Nothing like it was before. The 2003 Altima was a 4 banger. It felt like a V6 because of the way she drove it and when the dealer had it they couldn't believe how peppy and strong it was for a 4 banger out of the rest of the ones they have driven.

Again I am going to say this. The ECU learns from the person driving and makes changes. Jesse, this is the way Nissan's work. I can't say for other manufactures but they also might be similar.
