I checked out a new 05 pathfinder and our conversation turned to the X and I to find that most of the salesman know very little about the new changes. They may just be hanging onto the information so they can try to sell the 04's still on the lot.
The Pathfinder seems a bit to little to have a third row of seats. The backseat does not have much room at all, at least not for most adults and the third row would be for kids only. The backseats cannot slide back either to give more leg room. I think the new 05 X will actually have more room in the backseat then the Pathy and I can't wait to see one.
I read where the first Frontiers were just rolling off the assembly lines last week, so based on when the Pathfinder first launched and when the Frontier started, it will be at least December or January before we see the Xterra's start rolling off the lines in Smyrna,TN. Right on schedule.
