I drive the pathfinder about 25k to 30k miles per year. All over the south.
Rated for 25 hwy mpg. Traverse is near the same.
Third row, awd, hitch needed for towing 4000 lb.
It is Not my 4wd but still can tow the sxs if needed.
Will replace soon as the kid-hauler and light off-roading/towing.

Y’all like it?

My wife wants one to replace her jeep wrangler. We will look at the 24 Z71 model when they come out .

Engine made in China. I'd look elsewhere.

Toyota or Honda end of discussion.

One of my neighbors’ has a new gray Traverse and 8t really looks great in person. From Rims, brakes, tires, interior, profile….it looks great. He is a retired GM Service guy. It looks like a good choice.

do some research on the GM forums. They don't exactly have a good long term reliability history. For years they had crappy transmissions. Not sure if the newer models have improved or not.

The Mrs had one. It was huge inside and rode and drove well. Very comfortable. We sold it with about 65k on it and it was trouble free. It's way more station wagon-like than a lot of SUVs.
Extremely easy oil change. The drain plug faces forward and can be reached from under the front bumper/valance, and the filter is on the front of the engine and I can reach it under the hood. No need to actually get under the car at all.

Wife has one,2017, replaced transmission twice, factory warranty, but wouldn’t do it again. Otherwise, not bad, except bad transmissions

Yeah I think it was 2018 or 2019 when they went to the 9-speed trans. Whenever they switched to the current body style.

Got the wife one new in 2011. It has been a great vehicle. She drove it until late 2022 putting 185,000 miles on it. Kids got bigger and more activities etc so got a Tahoe last year and gave the traverse to my mom. She drives it every day over 200k on it now and still running great. Very little repairs needed. Had to replace water pump at around 150k and an idler pulley I think it was around 115k. That’s all I recall ever having to do to it.
