Looking At '97 And '98S - Good Choice?
Mercfan replied to Mercfan's topic in 96-2004 R50 Pathfinders
Very good info - thanks a lot! Keep it comin'... -
Hi everyone - New member here in Denver, CO. I got tired of looking at Toyota 4Runners... they are waaay overpriced in my area. Started looking at Pathfinders just this week - they look like nice vehicles that may just fit my needs. Looking for something to take me to my favorite fishing spots here in CO. Looking for something with a capable 4x4 (won't be doing anything crazy). Something with reasonable MPGs (i.e. low 20s would be great). Found a couple of Pathfinders in my area - here are the ads: http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/2141709901.html http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/2172125733.html Is this a good generation in terms of reliability and performance? Are they DIY friendly (replacing basic components and doing basic maintenance)? Is the V6 pretty capable to moving this truck around even up some passes we have around here?! Don't wanna win any races but don't want to have to be in a slow lane at 40mph the whole way up either... What is a typical mileage on these vehicles (unmodified). Any comments, guidance will be appreciated. The Toyota forums gave me tips to focus on years '96 and higher because of the improved 4.3L V6 - I'm looking to get similar recommendations from the members here if possible. THx, James in Denver, CO
