    Space: the cargo space behind the third row in the GH was BAD. Don’t trust the numbers on paper, the Nissan has a lot more room. Additionally, the extra storage spot in the rear of the GH is almost entirely consumed by tire tools, which is dumb and inconvenient. That space is a huge help in mid-size SUV’s.

    Hmm the GH has 4 more cubic ft with the 3rd row up and it shows, GH looks here (and in person) deeper

    Pathfinder vs GH

    Powertrain: this isn’t even close. The V6 is the Nissan is so smooth and strong, and now mated to a real transmission, it drives beautifully. The 4-cylinder abomination in the Toyota (and now in the Mazda and on its way in the GMC) doesn’t work for a 5,000-lb vehicle. It’s grabby, laggy, has some kind of weird exhaust brake-feeling resistance during coasting, and sounds horrible. I can’t imagine how shitty a driving experience the 4-cylinder will be if you opt for AWD. It’s. Awful.

    Was it the hybrid? I found that to be smoother than the regular 2.4l turbo. 36mpg average for it’s size and capability is quite a feat
