Help!!! trying to make purchase decision!

Postby swtch7 » Sat Sep 26, 2015 7:10 pm

Hey there, new to the form but not new to Nissans. I had an 05 Frontier, upgraded to a Titan and then moved over to a newer f150. In efforts to eliminate all debt I have sold my f150 and picking up a Pathfinder to still transport the family comfortably while having the ability to tow if needed.
I know all about the transmissions issue but here is where Im at a cross roads.

2005 LE 105k, Brand new fully rebuilt transmission (due to you know what), seems to be in great shape. asking 9500.

2006 LE 116K, no bypass but fluids look good (will do the bypass if I buy it), everything else looks great too, 8000.

Basically the same vehicles but would be paying 1500 more for a rebuilt tranny.. is it worth it? I think if the bypass is done the transmissions aren't at a ton of risk for failure no? or is it worth it now for the rebuilt?



Thanks guys, any info is appreciated!
