My wife and I acquired a new SUV for the year and needed to get rid of our old one. We have in good condition a 2001 Nissan Pathfinder. I will do my best to describe everything I know about this vehicle to the best of my knowledge. I am a part time mechanic and I have done all maintenance on this vehicle personally.
Mileage is mostly highway and still runs great. Mileage will change because vehicle is still in use. Front wheel bearings, brakes, ignition coil boots, spark plugs O2 sensors(all 4) and fuel pump, fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator are all new as of the beginning of this current year(2013) I have the rear brake shoes but not installed, will include with purchase if I can't get to them.
New tires that have less than 3000 miles on them.
Small oil leak from oil cooler which I will take care of before new owner takes this.
A few minor issues---
Passenger side turn light has a crack in it but I have another I can put on(see photos)
Low pressure a/c line has leak which will need replaced eventually, still blows cold as for now.
A MIL light has been on for years and the code states the "catalyst is below efficiency" which has not been an issue passing any emissions tests. We got a emissions done this October with no issues. I did, however purchase aftermarket lower catalytic converters which have not been put on yet but if seller desires me to I will put them on for an additional $50. If not then I will still include them with the sale and new owner will be able to do them.
The transmission works but there recently has been a little "buck" from 1st to 2nd when its cold start up, it may be a throttle position adjustment issue which I will look into also. Just a heads up just in case though.
The front bumper has a minor blemish from a car hit and run but did not dent it. The driver's side mirror has a chunk out of it from a parking garage door but still works perfectly.
Out Husky thought it was a good idea to hide food in the back seat from us so there is a small tear in the driver's side rear seat, about 5in in length and could be taken somewhere and patched.(see photos)
The CD changer does not function and never had worked when we bought this vehicle but the radio and cassette player work fine. We use out ipod with the cassette player through the radio when listening to music.
The good---
Everything power works, front seats, rear entertainment(VHS tape), windows(rear ones are a little slow when cold) sun roof, etc, etc,
Engine runs strong with no known issues.
This has a part time transfer case which will allow this vehicle to have the driving options of 2WD, AWD, 4LOCK, 4LOW all of which work well.
Installed a K&N air filter inside air box.
We get anywhere from 14-15mpg in the city and 17-19mpg highway which isn't terrible by today's standards. 
Exterior paint still shines, however there are a few door dings from parking lots.
Has a hitch receiver for towing, has a little rust on the receiver. 
Overall this has been a great vehicle and had no issues with this from the years we have owned this. My wife bought this back on 2007 I believe with around 75,000 on it at the time. We own mountain property here in Colorado and use this during the winter and has done wonders in the snow. 
I only have the one transmitter and chip key for the vehicle.
I have most of the receipts for the parts I have put on and will include this will the title when it sells. The title is clean and clear. If you have any questions, please ask. Thank you for looking and have a nice day.

BMW, Hyundai score big in JD Power's first Tech Experience Index

Mon, Oct 10 2016

While automakers are quick to brag about winning a JD Power Initial Quality Study award, the reality, as we've pointed out before, is that these ratings are somewhat misleading, since IQS doesn't necessarily distinguish genuine quality issues. JD Power's new Tech Experience Index aims to solve that problem. The new metric takes the same 90-day approach as IQS but focuses exclusively on technology – collision protection, comfort and convenience, driving assistance, entertainment and connectivity, navigation, and smartphone mirroring. It splits the industry up into just seven segments, based loosely on size, which is why the Chevrolet Camaro is in the same division (mid-size) as Kia Sorento and the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class is in the same segment as the Hyundai Genesis (mid-size premium). It makes for some screwy bedfellows, to be sure. Still, splitting tech experience away from initial quality should allow customers to make more informed and intelligent decisions when buying new vehicles. In the inaugural study, respondents listed BMW and Hyundai as the big winners, with two segment awards – the 2 Series for small premium and the 4 Series for compact premium, and the Genesis for mid-size premium and Tucson for small segment. The Chevrolet Camaro (midsize), Kia Forte (compact), and Nissan Maxima (large) scored individual wins. Ford also had a surprising hit with the Lincoln MKC, which ranked third in the compact premium segment behind the 4 Series and Lexus IS. This is a coup for the Blue Oval, whose woeful MyFord Touch systems made the brand a victim of the IQS' flaws in the early 2010s. But Ford and other automakers might not want to celebrate just yet. According to JD Power, there's still a lot of room for improvement – navigation systems were the lowest-rated piece of tech in the study. Instead, customers repeatedly saluted collision-avoidance and safety systems, giving the category the best marks of the study and listing blind-spot monitoring and backup cameras as two must-have features – 96 percent of respondents said they wanted those two systems in their next vehicle. But this isn't really a surprise. Implementation of safety systems from brand to brand is similar, and they don't require any input from users, unlike navigation and infotainment systems which are frustratingly deep.

Nissan ZEOD RC finds nothing but trouble at 2014 Le Mans

Mon, Jun 16 2014

Audi came away a big winner at this year's Le Mans competition, but Nissan has at least one thing to celebrate. The Pyrrhic victory apparently presages Nissan giving up on the gas-electric race car for Le Mans 2015. Before the race this weekend, the prototype ZEOD RC hybrid race car was doing quite well. In fact, given the way things turned out, Nissan's keen to mention that team engineers managed to get the car to complete a lap on electric power and hit a target speed of 300 kilometers per hour (186 miles per hour) on the Mulsanne Straight during testing. ZEOD RC stands for Zero Emission On Demand Racing Car. "The race was obviously very disappointing" – Wolfgang Reip Things didn't go so well once the real race started. The problem for the Deltawing-esque prototype – which is powered by a 1.5-liter gas ending putting out 400 horsepower and a pair of 110-kW electric motors – was that something broke in the transmission after just 23 minutes and five laps. Driver Wolfgang Reip put his best spin on the hybrid's collapse: "The race was obviously very disappointing but having got a taste of Le Mans now, I can't wait to get back." If Reip does return with Nissan, it will likely be in a more traditional Le Mons racer. The ZEOD RC was part of the LM P2 class, but Nissan says that, "For Le Mans 2015, Nissan will return to the LM P1 class." You can watch the full warm-up electric lap in a video below.

Nissan ZEOD RC heroic electric lap followed by heartbreak Amazing morning warm-up result after all-nighter by crew "New tech" car halted by "old tech" issue Nissan breaks new ground in electric vehicles LE MANS, France – Nissan's assault on the Le Mans 24 Hours may have ended early, but the revolutionary Nissan ZEOD RC electric prototype still leaves Le Mans having reached its historic goals of hitting 300 km/h on the Mulsanne Straight and recording a complete lap of Le Mans on electric power only. The unique prototype – which features both internal combustion and electric power sources – reached its first target during Thursday night qualifying when Satoshi Motoyama exceeded 300 km/h before the first chicane on the Mulsanne Straight. Nissan's other key goal was to complete an entire 8.5-mile lap of Le Mans on pure electric power. GT Academy winner Wolfgang Reip was at the wheel when the team achieved this goal during the morning warm-up.

2013 Nissan Pathfinder: June 2013

Thu, 18 Jul 2013

When we say that our long-term 2013 Nissan Pathfinder has been busy, we mean it. Want proof? In the past month, the big, brown Nissan was only idle enough for us to take it in for its 11,500-mile routine service and to shoot a couple of new photos of the long-termer in Detroit.
Most recently, the Pathfinder spent a few weeks in the hands of AOL Autos' executive editor Sharon Carty, who used the three-row CUV to haul her entire family from Detroit to New Jersey and back... twice. That's a pretty serious amount of miles, but it gave Sharon a really solid look into how the vehicle holds up for the needs of a family with kids of different ages.
