New '05 Pathfinder Owner

nova350z · Apr 19th, 2005, 10:54 PM

Hey all, just wanted to say hi. Just took delivery on my Storm Grey/Graphite '05 Pathfinder LE (w/DVD & Nav). I gotta say, this is one sweet ride. My driveway is looking like a Nissan showroom with the Le Mans Sunset 350z. Got a great deal on the PF, Browns Sterling Nissan in Sterling, VA hooked me up again (got the 350z there as well).

Anyway, great info here.. It's my first PF, so I have a lot of reading to catch up on!

Congrats on your new ride. At least yours should be a later build and don't have to worry about the manifold flutter. Enjoy the new Pathy and don't be afraid of taking it offroad once in a while.

yeah, I had read about that. I'll check the build date when I get home, but it seems like it's fresh off the truck, as we got to unwrap the plastic off the seats, sunroof, etc.

my dad bought an 05 pathfinder in January. would this be one that has the engine flutter problem?

Congrats on your new Pathy, Nova350z. I wish you much luck with it!

BTW, how do you determine the build date of your vehicle anyway? I've looked on my window sticker, but it doesn't seem to be indicated there.

It is on the inside side of the drivers side door.

Oh, ok. Thanks, NissanFamily.

Congrats.

I just picked up a Strom Grey OFF-Road Pathfinder about three weeks ago. And your right they are sweet. I have never owned a Nissan or an SUV for that matter.

I also recently purchased 2005 Pathfinder LE, black on black with NAV & DVD. Beautiful SUV and nice ride. It just turned 1000 miles... Hope all will be well. I will read on and learn!

Congrats!! They are nice rigs from what I see from my experience so far.

This is my 1st Pathfinder purchase also. I have been a loyal fan of 1990 Maxima SE, 1998 Maxima (auto) and then a 1999 Maxima SE (5-spd). All were awsome cars.

Enjoy!!
