Started out with a Toyota pick up in "the day" and after several trouble free years got sucked into the "buy American " thing.
After several Fords and a Dodge that ate up lots of time and $$$s to keep in the road, I bought a 1995 Nissan Quest. Boom, pretty much trouble free for 5 years and a great family car that also towed our camper well.
In the meantime we owned and drove an '03 Q45 that still is the greatest car I ever drove. After that the choice of another Nissan product was easy and as others have mentioned the need for 6 pasengers plus towing capacity led to the Pathy.
I did my research here and on other forums and found one in "the signature color", 25 miles away with a fresh trans and radiator <10k miles ago and pulled the trigger. It has been great averages 18mpg+ towing the camper, comfortable and fun to drive.
It will serve our needs till the Diesel Titan drops into the 2-4 year old, <60k miles range so I can buy one.
