  BAD CAR!!!! - 2002 Nissan Pathfinder
  By Joe Farmer - August 11 - 10:00 am

  I DONT CARE WHAT EVRYONE ELSE SAYS!! THIS CAR SUCKS!!!!!!!!! Ive already taken the pile of glue in 15 times in the past 3 months. The transmissions suck. And theyre the best part of the car! I almost threw up the car rocked so much and was amazed at how bad the gas milage was. I Cant belive this thing comes from NISSAN!!

  I dont think Ive ever owned a vehicle that I love more than this one. It has all the options, other than leather, (but who needs leather, hah) and Ive installed a satellite radio system.....For the money, you cant go wrong.

  Nice SUV!! - 2002 Nissan Pathfinder
  By WhoaFella - July 4 - 2:00 am

  Fun to drive. It has a solid feel, quick acceleration, comfortable interior (especially for me being 61"), and plenty of creature comforts.

  I love it! - 2002 Nissan Pathfinder
  By firemt27 - June 26 - 10:00 am

  Bought my 02 Le 4/04. I love it!!! The price was right. WAY more power than the S/C Xterra and the 2000 and older Pathfinders. Every option I could want, rides nice for a SUV. Luxurious fit and finish for a reasonable price. Nissan quality is great.

  All-around best SUV I have driven - 2002 Nissan Pathfinder
  By Thalodian - May 22 - 2:00 am

  Before purchasing my Pathfinder, I drove several of the top brands and found them all lacking in one way or another. The Pathfinder combines car-like ride and handling with class-leading power in a luxurious package. The only down-side is the fuel economy, which is a trade-off for having 250 HP under the hood.

  A great knockaround vehicle - 2002 Nissan Pathfinder
  By BOU962 - March 18 - 3:26 pm

  Love this SUV. A smooth ride that could induce car-sickness, a powerful engine, and conveniently-placed and thought-out controls make the car a gem. With regular all-season tires, holds the road in ice and snow, and stops on a dime if youre not driving like a drunken banshee. While 4WD can be taxing on tires, the Bridgestones wore out much too quickly - and were vulnerable to shoulder wear despite frequent rotation and balancing. Depending on driver height and seat position, blind spots (merging, etc.) can be a problem - encourage all your family members to test-drive before you buy.

  Best SUV value on the planet. Safe, fun to drive, looks cool, totally reliable and sturdy.

  GREAT SUV - 2002 Nissan Pathfinder
  By BP - February 21 - 10:00 am

  Love the Pathfinder! Has all the bells and whistles you could want. Great power, good towing capacity. Super comfortable. Love the Nissan quality after suffering through 6 miserable years with a Chevy Blazer that had nothing but problems.

  Just bought it - 2002 Nissan Pathfinder
  By bfallingstar - February 16 - 10:00 am

  The interior options sold us. Excellent sound system and leather interior. Very well thought out displays. Very powerful 6 cylinder engine. Larger body than I expected, but still manageable. Not much price negotiation, (I guess its popular enough that the dealer doesnt have to negotiate much.)

  2002 Pathfinder LE Blows the Others Away - 2002 Nissan Pathfinder
  By dkh1020 - January 10 - 10:00 am

  I just picked up my 2002 Pathfinder LE 2WD this weekend and couldnt be more pleased. After driving a 1999 Pathfinder LE for three years, I decided to shop the competition & nothing compared. The Pathfinder is clearly a superior product at a bargain price. The fit, finish, build quality and reliability are second to none. Interior materials and design are first rate. The cabin is comfortable and quiet while the ride quality rivals some sedans. The 240 hp 3.5 liter engine is exceptional and makes driving the SUV a blast. The six disc in dash Bose unit is phenomenal. Nissan has done a great job keeping an aging design fresh while continually improving the product.
