AutoWeek Review: 2005 Nissan Pathfinder

2005 Nissan Pathfinder
No Retreat: Pioneering Pathfinder stakes a new claim in the midsize SUV segment

[tnewga]

It’s a good-looking truck, even if the panel fits could be more even.

Quality issues even before it comes out.

Three rows of seats means seven people can travel under its roof, though that third row is pretty tight, even when you’re five-feet-four.

Why do automakers feel the need for a third row when only a midget can fit in this row.

It might be a pre-production model.

The third-row (in mid-size SUVs especially) is usually meant for children.

More than likely, but why not give them a production model to truly test the merit of your vehicle. I will love this vehicle when it comes out. I've already seen it in person(exterior), and I think it is the best midsize SUV out there, but I'm biased because I already a PF.

I just find the third row just to be a gimmick, that's all, never liked the idea if it's not fully functional for all passengers large or small. In full sized SUVs they are functional & make sense. If you truly need a third row get a larger vehicle.
