This Year's Model Updates:

All 2003 Pathfinders will offer optional satellite radio, with a choice of XM or Sirius services. The LE model receives a standard leather-appointed interior, while SE models feature restyled wheels. Both models also feature a new four-spoke steering wheel and electronic rear-hatch window release. For safety, there is a new Vehicle Dynamic Control Package that bundles Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC), traction control and a tire-pressure monitoring system. Two items no longer offered are the manual transmission and the optional navigation system. Guess you have to buy a map.

Pros:
  • Powerful V6 engine, carlike interior, solid reliability record, rear entertainment system option, available All-Mode 4WD system on LE models.
Cons:
  • Tight rear accommodations, high price tag, hard-to-fold rear seats.

    I have only had the Pathfinder for a about two months, but so far I am very pleased. Its the first new vehicle Ive owned which will not have a punch list of problems to be resolved when it goes in for its first check. I was looking for a mid sized suv with 5,000 lb towing. After comparing and test driving nothing came close. The car performs and handles well, is tight and well put together.

    The new pathfinder (2001 and later) is the best midsize SUV outside of the luxury class. There is nothing to match the performance of this V6, build quality, style, and pure presence on the road. History has proven the Pathfinders reliability, build quality, and high resale value compared to American products...and for less than a comparable Explorer. It sounds very much like Jamey has never even driven (much less owned) one of these fine gems. (By the way the sound system is Bose)

    I love the interior compared to the other SUVS I looked at- Every extra Accesory is on this SUV. I love the interior, the drive, the Color(crystal Blue Metallic) The Stereo is awesome, the heated seats are wonderful. I love the stereo knobs on the steering wheel! Its peppy and drives like a car- Its easy to get into and out of. I also like the reclining back seats.

    Reserched Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander and Pathfinder. Rebate and .9 financing separated the Pathfinder from the Highlander.

    I bought my 03 Pathfinder in Aug 05 and ever since its been wonderful. Yeah, the gas mileage isnt anywhere near a hybrid --but if thats what youre looking for then buy a Civic. But my Pathfinder is great!! Ive never had any mechanical problems. The only problem I had was with the heat shields. They became rusted and was removed, but thats what I get for living in Chicago. Let me tell you, I absolutely HATE driving in the snow, but the 4WD helps a lot. I love the bose, heated seats, 6CD changer, programmable drivers seat, & everything else! My boyfriend was mad because I made the decision of buying this car without him, but he (being the car guy he is) even admits it was worth it!!
