NO RESERVE
vehicle is just in time for winter! This 1998 Nissan Pathfinder LE 4X4 is in running/working order (engine light on) and has a well-cared for interior. I have the clean Colorado Title as well as
CarFax report in hand. I have all the
original owner manuals, key and remote entry. It is CO registered until the end
of March 2016. It currently has 192, 500
(mostly highway) miles on it. The last
oil change and tire rotation was done at Firestone in October 2015.
Sadly, it is time for me to part with “Silver
Bullet”… Since January of 2002, she has been a faithful and reliable
companion to me as I traveled and worked with the National Park Service. This Pathfinder has lived and played in Gulf
Islands National Seashore (FL), Mojave National Preserve (CA), and the
foothills of the Rocky Mountains (CO) and most recently last winter in
Vermont. The 4X4 system (high and low) has
shown to be a great warrior, able to tackle steep grades, many boulders, and
huge snow storms. The 60/40 rear split
bench is great for carrying tall items, ski gear, etc. and the overall cargo
volume is massive for hauling stuff.
The Interior is in very good condition
for its age. The exterior is in overall good to fair condition with some small bumps and bruises. It has been gently loved and driven
exclusively by me since January of 2002; I am the second owner. One accident was reported with the original
owner; I have never had any issues come up due to this. Three years ago, BestBuy installed a Sony Digital
Radio/CD player with MP3/USB (CDX-GT700HD) with Bose Speakers. I do have the remote and manual for this
sound system which I ordered through Crutchfield.
Silver Bullet has a lot of highway
miles, and has faithfully delivered me from coast to coast (usually pulling a U-Haul
trailer) with the installed trailer hitch. Towing capacity (depending on your speed and road grade) is anywhere
from 3500-5000 lbs. I firmly believe
that with a little bit of investment, this Pathfinder will faithfully ride for
many more miles! A new radiator was
added in the winter of 2011. All four Hankook Optimo tires were installed in the
summer of 2013, and the front and rear brakes were done in July 2014. I did not keep copies of these service
records, as I always expected to drive this SUV until its last miles.
This Pathfinder does have some
mechanical issues, which forces me to put it up for adoption. I was told by mechanics at Firestone and
Y&T Transmissions (both in North Wales) that Silver Bullet most likely
needs a new engine knock sensor, valve cover gaskets, and possibly a new left front tie-rod. The muffler does have some rust and a leak. All
this being said, I have still been driving the vehicle like this for many
months without issue. There is just a
little oil smell and that extra special little roar that announces her arrival!
The remote will lock all doors, but the actual key must be used to open the
vehicle. Please see pictures for areas
of rust, marks and the few dents.
I think that's it… I have tried my best
to accurately describe Silver Bullet’s highs and lows. You are welcomed and encouraged to come take
