Nissan is really good with being modern yet still having an old school approach. I’ve always loved them for that. They know their clientele
Had a 6 cylinder, 2007 Nissan Altima (with the CVT) for 14 years. Bought it brand new. Oil, tires, brakes, and a tie rod end or two. Most reliable vehicle (of 7 vehicles) I have ever owned. Sold it (with 170,000 miles on original engine and transmission) to an auto mechanic around the corner. He drives it to work every day. Saw it this morning (October 28, 2022).
Currently drive a 2012 R51 Nissan Pathfinder. LOVE IT!
I LOVE 'old-school' tech.......physical knobs, buttons, V8's, etc., and I am a HUGE fan of Nissan's VQ-series engines.
It is an absolutely beautiful SUV very reliable and not expensive to maintain
I am FINALLY getting one of these it looks like. They make an "S" trim with fewer bells and whistles again and the end of year incentives are crazy.
For the 4WD "S' the MSRP is only 55k to begin with, and the end of year incentives are huge this year (supposedly an update is coming next year).
It may never be this affordable again to buy a Nissan Patrol new (albeit a decontended one).
The "S" I am looking at still has LED headlights, 360 degree camera though. But the stereo is only 4 speaker, the rear view mirror is manual, the outside mirrors are still heated. Exactly the simple but incredible sturdy, high mechanical content, lifetime durability SUV one would want.
And I am paying less than a new loaded Pathfinder or 4Runner, for brand new full size V8 body-on-frame goodness.!! 🥰
Best looking SUV hands down nothing wrong with it at all who would want to buy a garbage GM Cadillac Escalade or hot garbage Chevy Tahoe you only rent those cars not buy them
@@JMV0711 anything made by GM is notorious for being cheap and unreliable. At least since 2005 in my opinion.
Absolutely, yes.
I have a 2017 armada platinum and it’s a fantastic machine.
Made in Japan. End of story
Great review Ben !
Excellent review of the Nissan Armada. I have the 2021 Nissan Armada SV, with 32,000 miles so far and I just love it. I agree with every point you made about this vehicle. This Endurance V8 engine along with the regular 7 speed transmissions have been very reliable for the past 20 years. I had a 2004 Infiniti QX56 for 17 years and 221,000 miles and had no issues with the engine or transmission (just burned a quart of oil every 2000 miles, and a cracked exhaust manifold which I never replaced). Folks, just keep up with regular maintenance oil changes, draining the transmission oil every 50000 miles and flushing the radiator fluid every 5 years. Also, when I saw that the new Nissan Armadas were built in Japan along with its sister vehicle, The Patrol, then it was a no brainer for buying this vehicle especially before they start using the V6 turbo engines in their 2025 re-design. I plan to keep this vehicle for a very long time.
Armada is a reliable SUV! Better than the Tahoe or Expedition!!! Don’t overpay for the American brands that rip you off and send you to the dealership for constant repairs and recalls!!! My first Armada was a 2008 and I drove it for 10 years before I traded it with over 230,000 miles on it. The car was still running great and never had any engine or transmission problems…totally reliable! I now have a brand new 2023 Armada and love it!!!
Great comment, exactly what I was thinking. Moving the family into a new Armada next week after being in a Jeep for 10 years. Can’t wait!
@@drkylefreeman you will not be disappointed! Just got back from a road trip to Martha’s Vineyard and loved every minute on the highway with my new Armada.
@@billyvision1360 That’s awesome, I can’t wait. Congrats on the new whip!
@@drkylefreeman same to you! Hope you get a good deal.
Just picked up a 2022 Platinum in white for the wife. Such a nice ride feels solidly built and quiet ride.
I’m buying an Armada.
I was going to buy the Infiniti but they lost me with the active adjusting suspension.
Looking for a long term reliable family this truck has everything I need and even things I rather not have.
The auto level is only in the rear and it’s great for cargo. My 2011 it still works at 230,000 miles and I also have a 2021. I’m not saying it can’t break but it’s an assist feature not the main weight bearer.
Good call. I’ve seen some reviews where the air suspension doesn’t work properly in colder climates.
@@ejohnson3131 I live in Arizona so I wouldn’t know but it has worked fine for 12 years for me.
My wife still has her 2004 Nissan Quest 3.5 SE with 258,000+ miles and is still running 😁
Still have a 2004 original pathfinder armada, Nissan reliability has been fanatic. Looking at the new styling of the 2021-2022 armada, man they look good. White is definitely the go-to color.
I think u hit the nail on the head with your comments on Nissan
Panoramic sunroofs are not necessary. More opportunity for problems and with a top heavy vehicle it’s dangerous in rollover scenarios.
"They can fit very large people..." Okay Im sold on it. My big back would set well with this! LOL
Like the loaded Platinum!!
I have a Titan Platinum, and it is AWESONE!!
So how has the car been for you? I am in the market for a full size SUV and the Armada is on the list.
I have a 2019 armada and love it!
ME TOOO 😇😇
same as a Nissan patrol in other markets
It is exactly the same thing just with different bumper styles, though I heard it’s cheaper
In UAE, Nissan patrol is far more popular than the Armada, if you need one, you need export it since they don’t sell it in dealers, and also, as I mentioned, I heard it’s cheaper than the Nissan patrol, had this came to UAE, it would have destroyed the Nissan patrol market again, it’s basically the same thing
There are many differences, towing capacity, off road capabilities, rear diff locker, axel ratio, suspension differences.
Once again thank you for realizing that Nissan isn’t as bad as the internet makes them out to be. Have had multiple Nissans including Frontiers and my currently daily is a 13 Titan. Only 124k on it but it gets worked and never complains.
Listen I had a 2011 I bought with 10 miles from dealership I just traded it with 298k and own a 2018 both of them are platinum I love everything about the reliability this vehicle offers it’s a basic elegant design I love it
Believ me it or not it is cheaper to have a digital gauge cluster rather than a old school with minor digital. Luxury is exponential in this car
I had a skyline r32 gtr in Thailand and not a single problem while I owned it. Most reliable car I’ve ever had.
I’m a millennial, but old school in a sense that I love knobs and switches. Toyota def is the Ford of the Japanese crew as far as reducing engines and focusing on tech. Nissan is still sticking true to their roots.
And Nissans V8s are part of the VK series, which is dirt old, which means it’s tried true and tested. It’ll last way longer.
Which Armada comes with the V8 Symbol on each side of the truck?
2021 is when they changed that I believed. It says 5.6 in the older models.
FYI these are also built in Japan
Japanese cars on top
I have a 2013 Nissan V8 Armada Platinum. Engine is solid
On the minute 9 and still hasn't talked about reliability!
Daily drive a 2013 Nissan Armada most reliable vehicle I've ever owned. Routinely drive from Massachusetts to North Carolina with zero issues . Just normal routine maintenance and enjoy.
I have a 2011 and iv never had a problem best car iv ever owned I’ll 100 percent get another one
Isn´t the Infiniti QX80 the Luxus Version of the Nissan Armada?
If you had kids? My kids are well behaved and listen to me, they would not be digging around.
Sounds like you need to gain some weight there buddy.
Nissan doesn’t need to put shitty, unreliable twin turbo setups.
I’ve got an old 2007 Titan, and its still a beast, still pulls hard.
Good review!
Nissan armada is a great long-term buy. These things run 200....300k miles
Yes I own 3 lol 2008 armada 2012 Titan n a 2020 armada.. NO issues, only issue is they love to swallow gas 😂😂
I would consider it binge drinking. I had to spend $500+ in gas for my 2010 Armada. Traded it in for a hybrid Fusion. Dropped the monthly gas bill to 100. I do miss all the room of the Armada and the power though.
@@PhuN_1 nah… my 2020 armada half tank to fuel up its 25-30 bucks the most.
08 n 12 armada n Titan at half a tank it’s 40 bucks .. every week I fuel up n about 20 a week. I’m from texas down in the south. About 10 minutes away from the boarder .. gas here right now it’s about 2.70 a gallon…
@@josearellano3268 I definitely would not have traded it in if gas stayed at $3, however, gas was close to $6 when I let it go. It was surprisingly still worth a lot of money when I traded it in at 100K. Very reliable. Just change oil and go. No issues except battery every 3 years. I kept it 7 years.
@@PhuN_1 yup. Reliable as hell… haven’t changed spark plugs on 08 armada since I got it n it’s been 9 years 😂😂 with 170k…
Dude please, decaff.......
the complaints about this car are hilarious ...
Ask in 2023.
Ever since renault I don’t trust Nissan reliability
Your loss.☺
I want everyone to know, that I have a 2008 Nissan Armada and this engine is very reliable, far more reliable than other v8s, I promise you.
