rmd0311 Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 (edited) Well., I have been missing my pathfinder alot lately. Don't get me wrong I love driving the Maxima, but the Pathfinder gave me a feeling of roughness I no longer have on the Max. A feeling of I could care less where I go cause my vehicle will take me there in any weather condition. Oh well., what can I say... Sadness and regret is what I feel. I think its time I buy a beater. I though about buying a pickup, but figure an older Pathy might serve the same purpose. What do you guys think? 91-92 4x4 5spd. Can the rear seats be taken off and the whole back be made of rugged plastic to haul stuff? My next car will once again be a rugged SUV... Not because I need it, but because I like the way it makes me not care about where I go. Maybe that sounds gay. Just venting... :confused: Edited September 21, 2006 by rmd0311 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precise1 Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Yeah, I understand what you are saying. I'd have a hard time not having a truck, even if I didn't drive it all the time. The good news is that you are in a perfect position to shop for a deal/exactly what you want. I'd recommend getting a 94or95 unless you live in salt country. The reason being, the timing belt change interval is 105k not 60k. If you look for one with 100k+, you can get it just after timing belt/waterpump change (mine had exhaust redone also) but while it's still in fair shape. Of course, I payed too much for mine but that was 2 years ago and I live in Cali. Yeah, you could pull the seats and rear carpet and line it anyway you wanted. I'd make a backstop behind the front seats and have wells where the passenger leg area was. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Your feeling the same thing I felt when I sold my GMC to buy a VW. Thank god my pathy came around like it did, about a year later. Gas milege and speed are all well and good, but you have to have something that can make it over a curb without busting an oil pan open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mws Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 But seriously.... How mechanically self sufficient are you? If you are capable of doing all your own repairs, picking up a WD21 Pathy is an incredibly inexpensive way to have a second vehicle with mucho functionality. I just proved it with my '88. For under $4K, I have a very capable, pleasantly comfortable truck with like new reliability and handling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC88Pathy Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Apparently some early two door WD21's came without backseats and vinal flooring in the back... I'v never seen one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmd0311 Posted September 22, 2006 Author Share Posted September 22, 2006 I'm saying... Love the Max, but I was at this state park the other day. I could have driven straight to the lake to fish. But noooo... I gotta park 1 mile away and walk the rest of the way, because there is no way the Max can make it through that freaking nasty trail.... 94-95 would be more money. Looking to spend 1-2k... Let's see the need is not pressing, it will something where I look and look till I find the right one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I feel for you, it is the same reason I never got rid of my truck... even when I wanted to blow it up lol I knew I would miss it That goes for both of the trucks pictured below Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey.T Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Keep you chin up man!!!! The Right Pathy will fall into you lap at the right time.... Keep the eyes and ears open... The day I had given up and decided to by a Heep from one of my Clients I got a call telling me about a Black 95SE..... 30 min later I was looking at it, Driving and ummm went to the bank and cut the guy a check.....
