- This 2001 Nissan Pathfinder LE 4x4 is the top of the line trim for its model year, originally retailing at approximately $34,000 back when she was new! She still runs absolutely beautifully and will be a great car for your city errands or big mountain adventures. I'll be sad to part ways with her, but just bought a new car and certainly don't need two cars.
- 240 hp V6, 265 ft-lbs torque. She loves charging up big, steep mountain passes at highway speeds, and doesn't even break a sweat doing so. Excellent power. One of my favorite features of the car.
- V6, DOHC engine
- MPG 14 city, 18-19 highway, 16-17 mixed use
- Front seat power options have 6-way adjustments, including height adjustable, and also manual lumbar support for the driver's side - very comfortable for long drives
- Luxurious simulated wood trim on dash
- Seats 5, rear seats fold down for expanded cargo space. Large middle armrest available when only 2 passengers are in the rear seats. Rear cupholders.
- Selling at a great price as I just want a no-hassle, quick purchase for this vehicle. The asking price reflects ALL noted wear & tear, as a top asking price for this car is in the $4500-5000 range, and this car has been listed recently at CarMax for more than $5,000!
- Full service records available
- Scheduled maintenance completed at all recommended intervals, including at 120K miles
- Fresh oil change, done in August 2013, less than 1,000 miles ago
- Tires in excellent condition, premium Michelin light truck/SUV LTX mud/snow all-season tires, have 20,000 miles on them (warrantied for 70,000 miles). Will throw in $120 tire chains for FREE, only used once!
- New battery in June 2013
- New front and rear windshield wipers (hey, it's the little details that count)
- New front rotors & front brake pads in July 2013, rear brakes were reported to be in good condition at the time
- Just passed smog in August 2013, detailed test results and smog certificate available
- Clean registration and clear title
- No major accidents. Only one minor incident, brushed up against a parking garage pole at 3 MPH, which required front bumper/fender repair, but no structural damage.
- Paint is fading on the rear driver's side bumper, a bit rusty by the driver's side mirror & on top of the moonroof in minor spots.
- Driver's seat is torn, could be stitched back together or easily covered up with a cloth seat cover if desired
- Check engine light comes on at times, I've been advised that the catalytic converter isn't performing fully up-to-specs, but it does not affect the day-to-day performance of the car. Despite this issue, Big Blue still passed smog in August 2013, so if/when you want to repair this, is up to you. She still runs at the advertised MPG, and is not due for another smog inspection for two more years, so no any immediate repair need.
- CD player doesn't work, doesn't matter to me since I just plug in a FM transmitter to create an AUX input and play music via a iPhone/MP3 player anyway.
- Clock doesn't work anymore, guess maybe a bulb or fuse burned out but if you know how to replace it, knock yourself out.
- Remote key fob needs to be reprogrammed, could be programmed yourself if you know how to do it. Otherwise just use the key for manual entry.

Best cheap SUVs: You don't have to pay a lot to get a lot
Sat, Oct 28 2023Here's a news flash: Everything is a lot more expensive now! And that definitely goes for new SUVs, with prices that keep nudging higher and higher. Actually "nudging" might be too soft of a description for their motion. "Skyrocketing" is probably more accurate. While higher prices and hefty interest rates have likely knocked a lot of people out of the new car market entirely, there are still quite a few cheap SUV choices. Better still, they're not terrible! Far from it, in fact. While the lowest price SUVs used to be drab, sorry affairs best left to the lots of Avis and Budget, that is definitely not the case today. Not only are there legitimately appealing cheap SUV choices, they offer genuine differences in character, capability and design. It's not just a series of anonymous boxes with different badges. Below you won't just find a simple list of the cheapest SUVs available. We are actually pointing out the best ones. They are listed from least expensive to most expensive, with none exceeding a starting price of $30,000. Most are subcompacts, but a few of our top choices in the compact SUV segment snuck on. Finally, please excuse the crummy photo quality. We sought out representative trim levels of the prices in question rather than just reusing pretty carmaker-provided photos of the most expensive trim levels. This is what the cars will actually look like. Kia Soul Why it stands out: Ample space and abundant features for the money; unique style; strong turbo engine upgrade Could be better: All-wheel drive is not available Starting Price: $21,315 Read our most recent Kia Soul Review The Kia Soul definitely didn't start off as a small SUV, and the term "crossover" is probably better applied to it. Still, what started life as an undefinable funky tall hatchback now finds itself in its third generation with numerous vehicles of similar shape and size that are dubbed "small SUV" or "small crossover." If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck ... Call it what you will, but the Soul delivers the goods with tons of equipment and space for its price and size, an agreeable driving demeanor, and an even more powerful engine upgrade than the Kona's. We also think it's pretty cool. All of the above helped it win our subcompact SUV comparison test. Now, if there's one area where the Soul does not satisfy a typical SUV requirement, it's the lack of available all-wheel drive.
Mercedes, Nissan and VW slammed by China's CCTV
Tue, Mar 17 2015Several automakers in China, including joint ventures with Nissan, Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz, are in hot water because their dealers are allegedly overcharging customers for repairs. China Central Television, the country's state broadcaster, leveled the claims during its annual Consumer Day expose. CCTV runs these reports each year on March 15 and often takes aim at foreign companies operating within China. This year the focus fell on automakers, according to the Financial Times, and no domestic car companies were targeted. The network also accused dealers of overselling parts, and it took aim at Jaguar Land Rover specifically for problems surrounding transmission repairs, according to Reuters. The yearly stories are often criticized for focusing on outside businesses. "It panders to a certain type of nationalism as it tends to target foreign companies and rarely touches large state groups or monopolies," Qiao Mu, a journalism professor at Beijing Foreign Studies University, said to the Financial Times. Foreign automakers seem to face tighter scrutiny when doing business in China than their domestic counterparts, in general. The government there investigated several luxury brands, including Audi and BMW, last year for how they supplied spare parts and whether the components were overpriced. Some incurred fines, and Lexus decided to lower its prices. Volkswagen also experienced protests when owners felt the company wasn't handling a recall properly. The CCTV report also comes as many auto dealers in China are feeling a pinch due to high mandated sales targets from automakers. The situation was so dire in early 2015 several brands cut back sales targets and in some cases even paid the sellers to offset poor profits.

PSA shares rise following FCA's breakup with Renault
Thu, Jun 6 2019Shares in Groupe PSA, parent company of automakers Peugeot, Citroen and the DS brand, rose on Thursday as analysts considered the possibility that Fiat Chrysler could turn back to PSA after withdrawing its $35 billion merger offer for Renault. "Both parties have acknowledged the need for scale or [mergers and acquisitions] and may pursue other opportunities. If Nissan was an obstacle (to an FCA-Renault deal) PSA-FCA discussions could resume," wrote brokerage Jefferies. Back in March at the Geneva Motor Show, rumors started swirling that PSA was interested in a potential merger with FCA. Mike Manley, who took over at the helm of Fiat Chrysler following the death of Sergio Marchionne, had indicated a willingness to look into potential partnership options. Of course, that was all before FCA proposed a merger with Renault — with that deal now off the table, attention naturally turns back to PSA, which is also based in France. "We expect both shares to react negatively but see FCA having wider strategic options and Renault shares more downside risk near-term," said Jefferies. According to Reuters, PSA shares were up 1.5% at the time this was published, making it the top-performing stock on France's benchmark CAC-40 Index. Renault saw its shares slump 7%. Shares for FCA fell 3% in early trading on the Milan Stock Exchange. Considering that FCA said in its statement confirming the withdraw of its merger offer with Renault that "political conditions in France do not currently exist for such a combination to proceed successfully," we have to wonder how keen the company is to begin negotiations with another French automaker like PSA. Those thoughts were similarly voiced by Bernstein Research analyst Max Warburton, who said (via Forbes), "Expect PSA to rise on unrealistic hopes it may be FCA's next date."
