Replying to: paisan (Feb 11, 2007 11:42 am) A solid rear axle, and yet better ride than most car based SUVs.   The armada is not a mid size SUV, so it is not really comparable to the 4runner, so why even bring it up? However, read any reviews on the Armada and it is usually on all the worst reliability full size SUV lists. Here is one of such lists from Consumer Reports: Least reliable (Worst score first) Nissan Armada Infiniti QX56 Lincoln Navigator Hummer H2 (http://money.cnn.com/popups/2006/autos/reliable/9.html)   Here is a list of midsize SUVs, most reliable: Most reliable (Best score first) Toyota Highlander Hybrid* (pictured) Toyota 4Runner Toyota Highlander Honda Pilot Lexus RX400h* (hybrid) 2006 Acura MDX (http://money.cnn.com/popups/2006/autos/reliable/8.html)   Cheaper to me is not necessarily better. I paid $27k for the 4runner, but again it is a smaller SUV not comparable to the Armada. Replies to this message: paisan (Feb 11, 2007 6:51 pm)

Replying to: fatpuppy (Oct 01, 2006 3:20 am) I have 1998 Pathfinder SE with 100K. It is a very reliable car except for the gas milage. It gives about 14 in city and 18 Hwy MPG. With the incresing gas prices, I am in a dilema whether to keep it or replace with a smaller more fuel efficient car. The problem is that it will be difficult to get any money for this old car.   Is there a way to improve its fuel efficiency somehow? Or is it has average MPG? Appreciate for your advise?
#33 of 49 Premium Fuel for 2008 Pathfinder by paulsed1 Oct 22, 2007 (3:15 am)
I am just looking for thoughts from those of you that have a 2008 Pathfinder (or from 2005 on I guess) and how you feel about the mileage and what kind of gas you use. I currently have a 1999 Pathfinder and have been considering trading up. I like the look of the new Pathfinder, even though they have gone to a truck base. But I am surprised they recommend using premium fuel. While my '99 wasn't exactly mileage friendly, I could still deal with it, it wasn't too bad. I could also use 87 octane. Some say 93 burns slower, but is it really that noticeable? I don't want a secnd job just to pay for gas as I do drive a lot, but I really like the vehicles. Any thoughts or comments?    All the best, Paul Replies to this message: mizzrivera (Nov 04, 2007 5:08 am)

Replying to: paulsed1 (Oct 22, 2007 3:15 am) I have a 2008 V6 4X2 LE with 1500 miles on it and according to the MPG computer I'm getting around 18MPG with mixed city/hwy driving. Straight highway with the cruise on 80mph I average 21MPG. Also, I've only put 87 octane in it. So I don't think that's too bad. Plus I LOVE my SUV!
#36 of 49 '05/'06 MPG? by beach4me Jan 01, 2008 (6:06 am)
We are considering a Pathfinder ('05/'06). What is the real world MPG? We are a family of five and need the third seat for trips.   Any other words of advice? We are also considering the Honda Pilot.

Replying to: beach4me (Jan 01, 2008 6:06 am) Disappointed: 2007 SE Auto Pathfinder 4x4. Mostly highway, I live in South Florida = 15.2 mpg. Here to Orlando = 19 mpg. Tried regular, mid grade & premium. $3.15 - $3.50 a gallon, not impressive.   Reg. Frank R.

Replying to: frrussre (Jan 14, 2008 3:39 pm) Also disappointed here. I, too, have an '07 SE. I'm averaging about 16mpg. I haven't see anything above 18mpg. And it has a terrible vibration at about 40-45mpg. Dealer test drove two others on the lot when I reported the vibration and both of those also had it. Seems to be common in this model. I wouldn't buy another one. Wendy Replies to this message: flosja (Jan 24, 2008 3:50 pm) frrussre (Jan 24, 2008 4:34 pm)

Replying to: zipper1google (Jan 14, 2008 4:59 pm) The 08 4x4 S model I have gets about 14/15mpg on short trips and about 18/19 on the highway. I was curious if anyone here knows any good performance chips to put in that will enhance the mpg? Thanks
