Ummm......best time to research specs is before you buy a car. No point in agonizing about it now - you are stuck with it. A buyer's lack of due diligence is not the dealer's or manufacturer's fault.

You are correct. I'm looking at my book right now. Before the purchase, I only compared the cargo with the sets UP, not DOWN. I always have 2 kids in the back seat so cargo with the seats down isn't even a concern with me. However, I just don't think fixating on the cargo space available in a Murano should have made the top of your list of things to get frustrated over. If carrying cargo is a big concern, there are plenty of other vehicles that should have made your list. Even in our 2006 its not like we could get a lot of stuff in there. We have weekend trips to the beach and the mountains pretty regularly. We fit our stuff (with the seats up) and we're all still comfortable. If you can, just try to keep focusing on how stylish, well-equipped and safe the car is! The hard drive is probably one of my most favorite things in the whole world, followed closely by the bluetooth. Also, I had a bad accident in my 2006 (hit by a careless teenager) and I walked away from the accident -- even though the car needed $13,000 in repairs that took 2 months to complete. LOVING my murano!!!

tspaventa - i totally appreciate your perspective. i have to say that for someone in a different life situation (40s, into outdoor sports/ active, no kids, LOVE OUR dogs...tote firiends when they deserve it ) - this is an ideal vehicle. the space for the back seat if needed (or if not) is fantastic.
 
the space is very conformative - but yes, if you have kids, you may not have made a well-informed decision. i guess it is a lesson learned, bc you are hard pressed to "return" a car b/c you didn't understand clearly stated specs.
 
good luck, and i hope you can figure out how to love your murano! it's worth loving!!!

If space is a problem--leave one of the kids with grandma next vacation. Really cuts down on the bickering.

I wasn't the one complaining about the lack of space. I'm the one who totally loves my murano. There's enough space for us, the kids and all of our/their crap for weekend trips to the beach and the mountains. I love this so much I turned in a 2006 at the end of the lease for a 2009. No regrets.

Not too many problems posted 2007 and up. Wouldn't be afraid of an 09 or 2010. The power train warranty will cover you for 5 years anyway.

Silver Accents for Black Roof Rails? by breinders
Nov 02, 2009 (9:20 pm)
Reply
I just purchased a Super Black SL with black roof rails. I really like the silver accents on the roof rails on the LE. I think it ties nicely with the silver accent along the bottom.
 
Does anyone know if there is a kit that can be purchased to add the silver accents to the black roof rails?
 
If not, does anyone know what the cost would be (if it is even reasonably possible) to switch the black roof rails to the silver accented roof rails?
 
My Googling has turned up nothing. Thanks much.

I have got the 2009 TL. The LE still seems to have problems with tire vibrations.
 
So far there have been no problems. The vehicle drives very responsive and the transmission is smooth. There are no shifting jerks. We took it on a longer trip in August and the ride and XM radio made the trip very comfortable. The vehicle is quiet compared to our previous Honda Pilot. Generally, I think the vehicle is well designed.
 
Cheers
