I'm a contractor and have had Chevy and Ford full size vans, but this is by far the best van I've had so far. In four years and 36k miles I've only done oil changes. Still have the original tires with good life left on them and original battery. Vehicle rides smooth o er rough roads thanks to extra long rear leaf springs. Its average on fuel at 11 mpg loaded all the time. Very quiet cabin. A/C is powerful even in hot Florida summers. The leg room is by far the largest of any van due to the engine being mounted further forward so there is no dog house in the way. This also accounts for the largest & most accessible engine bay I've ever serviced. The 4.0 engine has also been around for over fifteen years in older Xterras, Frontiers and Pathfinders and those vehicles, as well as NV vans are abundant with well over 250k miles. Many have surpassed half a million miles.
