Yeah, I always wondered why Nissan didn’t push the Patrol in the North American market. Seems like it would be good competition for Toyota Land Cruiser. Probably too small of a pool of customers. I had a 2002 Pathfinder and it was a great vehicle. I think Toyota beat the Pathfinder into submission with the 4Runner, which is when they gave up and transformed the Pathfinder into what it is today. Nissan should call it the “Highlander Wannabe.” Legend indeed…The Nissan Patrol is very highly regarded in the overlanding community with recurring rumors of its NAS sale… no one is holding their breath on that one
Bronco Sport is selling very well.There are just way too many plain old SUVs on the market right now. Why do they need another.
It is. We are talking about the addition of the Pathfinder here though and the need for another small to midsize suburban type SUV. Whether the Sport is selling well or not, it doesn’t really offer anything new to the market except to offer people the Bronco name without any of its off-road capability (beyond what you can get in any other suburban vehicle)Bronco Sport is selling very well.
