  1. So far just the typical floor mats, cargo mats from weathertech and a dog enclosure. We'll be doing some day trips pretty soon!
  2. Thanks! After 3 weeks and 1900 miles, I love the Revo's too. They've been great on the rainy streets, but I'm really wanting to do a little more now. Check out www.S2KCA.com if you need any S2000 info. They have a great group of people over there that are willing to answer any questions you might have. I've been there for the last 5-6 years now. I've got 136k miles on mine and still can't get tired of this car.
  3. Looks mean! I also love the pic in your sig Ryan.
  4. I noticed the same thing yesterday when I tried it, but no luck. My G35 does it, so I figured what the heck.
  5. What amazes me is that Nissan sells them with crappy tires. I just picked up my Pathy on Monday from the dealership and immediately noticed how bad these tires were on the drive home. I auto-x and track my S2000, so I know that tires make all the difference in the world.
  6. I just picked up my new Pathy LE and wasn't too happy with the tires that came with it. As you may have heard, Houston has a very bad storm on Monday that dumped 15-18 inches of rain within a few hours and continued raining for the rest of the day. There was extensive flooding and the roads remained wet for the next few days. While driving to work, I couldn't help but notice that these tires were having a hard time getting traction and hydroplaned when driving through small patches of water. I found several web reviews confirming what I had experienced I have a friend who's a manager at a Discount Tire in Texas City and spoke to him about some replacement All Terrain options. He recommended the Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmor and the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo. Both looked good on Tire Racks Customer Review site. I decided on the Bridgestone's and should be having them installed on Friday. I'll update this thread with my analysis of their wet traction and hydroplaning impressions.
  7. Well. My Pathy came in a little early and just in time for these Texas sized rain storms. It's a different world being able to see all the traffic in front of me. I'm so used to being in my Honda S2000 and staring at myself in all of those polished chrome bumpers in front of me. I have to say that my wife and I love our new vehicle and I've already ordered a few things for it online. If these shipments would hurry up and get here. Thanks again for all your help. I'll be around.
  8. I've been thinking about getting a bull bar and other accessories when it comes in. Where do most of you get your parts from?
  9. That setup looks aggresive. I like it.
  10. Thanks for the warm welcome everybody. We ordered the Nav for just that purpose. I used to think it was just a 'toy' thing, but it comes in very handy when driving through unfamiliar areas.
  11. Hello ya'll! (I had to get the Texas slang in real quick) I just placed an order for an '06 Pathfinder a few weeks ago and have about 4-6 long weeks left before it arrives. I bought it based on our experience with our nearly 3 year old G35 and 60k trouble free miles. You can never have enough cars with VQ engines! It's just so strong and reliable that the Pathfinder was our only option. The main reason I bought one is to prepare for those Hurricane evacuations that we have to deal with living on the coast. It will allow us to carry our pets and whatever we need to carry to safer ground. I felt that I needed something that might need be able to handle some off-road situations that became common during last years Houston area Hurricane Rita evacuation. Anyway, I just wanted to join the forum and learn from your experiences that are documented here. Happy Trails!
