I doubt I am the first to ask this question...
Warranties...
Wife is buying a Honda Accord -
I am buying a Pathfinder...
What is the best deal on warranties for each?
I am seeing lots of different options and my dealer is
offering a few choices also, in different price ranges...
Options???
Thanks

Hi cryptoguy - welcome!
 
This is an Altima Real World Mileage discussion, so the folks who can answer you probably aren't going to see your post here.
 
What you want to do is check out the groups on the Accord and the Pathfinder. We also have a general discussion on Extended Warranties that may be helpful.
 
Enjoy!

Took a trip and went 847 miles.
Pretty much all highway at 60-75 MPH.
The car got 29 MPG., not bad.

Any data yet on mpg for the 2007 Altima - curious to see if it is really going to live up to the increased EPA estimates.

'02 3.5 Altima...approx 116K miles. Strange, I moved to AZ from CA & found an increase in MPG during the hot summer months vs. the cold winter months. Was about 26-28 MPG during summer; now in winter at about 23-25 MPG...interesting...but still ok at 116K miles!

Winter grade gasolines are blended with more volatile content for improved cold start capability - but at the cost of lower fuel economy (fewer BTUs per gallon). You're also now probably at a somewhat higher elevation, too. These winter blends are both temperature and region modified for the anticipated temperature changes at given elevations. Expect things to improve next spring when the summer blend gasolines begin shipping again to stations.

I love my SE-R however the MPG could be better. I know it all depends on how you drive and the road conditions however, I can't seem to get away from 20MPG in the City and around 24-26 on long highway drives. I did manage to get 28 on a long trip to Sandusky Ohio.....

i am having problems with the gas mileage on my 2007 Nissan Altima 2.5s. I am getting a highway Mileage of 22 and i already have put on 4000 miles. The dealers said tht the EPA quoted value if far away from the actual mileage. But the answer is not satisfactory because the discreapancy should be 10% here and there. Please let me know if anyone has the same problem.

How fast are you driving? I've had my 07 Altima for a few weeks and it gets close to the EPA estimate when driving 55mph. But we all know no one drives 55mph on the interstate.
 
Also, fuel varies between states due to emissions standards and required additives. This as well as elevation can affect mileage.
 
The EPA is changing their ratings for 2008 to better reflect mileage for present-day driving habits. So basically, cars will be rated as having "worse" fuel efficiency than previous models.
