However, past experience indicates you would get poorer mileage, enough to more than offset the lower cost of the fuel. In other words, you would probably experience a lower cost per mile using premium.

Hey Guys,
I drive a 2001 Pathfinder SE 4x4....the specs say that the fuel tank is 21.1 gallons. But each time my guage hits empty, I could fill only 15.5 gallons max. Is there like a 6 gallon safety net? Thanks.

I think so. The '05 seems to be the same way.

My 99 Pathfinder SE (3.3 L engine) can get 23.4 MPG at 65 MPH hiway driving with A/C OFF.
At 70 MPH will usually get 22 MPH easily hiway only.
These are a bit better than EPA for this year I think. I'm happy, considering the cost of gasoline !

I drive a 1995 Pathfinder4WD SE 3.0. This old steed has 150000 miles on it. I put in Bosch Plus 4 plugs, and dropped in a K&N filter. Milage went from 15mpg to ~19 city, ~20 hwy consistently for the last 6 years or so. Doing research on Green air filter. Anyone have any experience with these?

I own a 2005 Pathfinder LE 4x4 (wife's vehicle) 8000 miles on it. I consistently get 17-18 mpg in mostly city driving, on all highway trips I will get 20-21 mpg. Unleaded 87 Octane. Dealership told me that regular is all that is needed. Although I have heard you may get slightly better mpg with premium fuel. Nowhere on the vehicle itself or owners manual does it require use of premium fuel.

2006 Pathfinder LE 4x4. After 5000 miles, I'm averaging about 18.5 MPG (regular grade gas) in what I'd call "hill country suburban" driving - mostly hilly roads with posted speeds of 50-60 MPH and occasional stoplights, with some residential (30 MPH) driving thrown in. This is 2+ MPG better than I was getting in my smaller, less powerful '93 Explorer 4x4. The dashboard gage is consistently within 0.2 MPG of what I get when computing fuel economy manually, so the Nissan engineers did their homework.
