Regular Car Reviews reviewed a 2002 pathfinder and had a lot of bad things to say about the R50. While that's usually the case in any of their videos, I think they missed out on what makes the R50 Nissan Pathfinder (and Infiniti QX4) great vehicles. They're awesome budget 4x4s with plenty of reliability, comfort, and offroad capability. They compete closely with 4runners and other 4x4's like the Cherokee, Explorer, and Xterra, but the R50 is noticeably more refined. It has a great 4WD system, a stout drivetrain, and plenty of power on the VQ35DE edition. Regular Car Reviews looked past all of this and just focused on calling it a boring, mediocre street SUV. As someone who really enjoys this platform, I think there's more that the pathfinder offers its drivers.

Whatever you use your pathfinder or qx4 for, from daily driving to Overlanding and off-roading, I'm guessing you agree. Thanks for watching!
