Sad, because the Patrol sells extremely well overseas, especially in the Middle East and North Africa.... And it's a beast off road

Gawd, this video was just a Nissan hate-fest of complaints by someone who doesn't appreciate just how nice this vehicle is and what a great value it is for the money as compared to its competitors. Also to say it should "be the Patrol" is just not thinking, as if it WERE the Patrol it would probably cost about $80,000 in the USA.

@@joseCalderon1976 - I get your point...but I think that a fair number of people who really would off road as well as people who prowl the soccer fields would buy it just because it isn't a Land Cruiser. They would like something different. Plus, only about 3K Land Cruisers are sold per year here, maybe Nissan wouldn't need to sell a ton of them.

Of course it's not the patrol, but it still has 270mm ground clearance, low range and center diff lock. Downhill assist and different electronic modes will also help. That's what I need and many families would not even switch to low range. The only disappointment for me is the styling. I hate this fat rear bumper and lights and different color wheel arches. Front bumper looks fine. Just look at the Patrol's rear end, how beautiful it is.

I test drove a new 2019 a couple days ago and completely agree with every point you made about the "NEW ARMADA" Nothing to see here folks. So many reviewers are stating "this is the Nissan Patrol" badged Armada in the US. IT IS NOT! The big bulbous bumpers on the US spec car look hideous compared to the Patrol. C'mon Nissan, give the US market something that can compete head to head with the Land Cruiser. Once again the US market gets the Soccer Mom crap that the manufacturer says we want. Your review was spot on in my opinion.

This generation of the Patrol is watered down anyways. It's not exactly the pure off roader the past Patrols used to be even if it were equipped with locking diffs and and a sway bar disconnect. That said, those features will likely make it onto a refreshed version when Nissan want to update this one in the US. It would be a smart move because the refresh would garner a lot of attention than usual from people who hold the Patrol name high as it seems Stephen does.

Everybody likes to dog on foreign vehicles and how it looks like the Infiniti. However if you look at the Tahoe and some of their other high end GMC vehicles, they all look the same other than maybe the grills on them. Common people, start making better comparisons other than the vague hate for a vehicle because that might not be to your taste.

Well, I keep my vehicles long-term and usually until they die, so maybe I'm in the minority here? I would like one of these big SUVS when family comes over that doesn't drive or have a car, because of the extra room.

There's an obvious 4th option: evolve the original US Armada, which is unequivocally the best SUV ever developed, and the most reliable. These are easily reaching 400,000 miles with little or no component failures. The only apparent reason that number isn't 500,000, or 700,000, is their 2004 date of birth.
