Nissan Rogue midnight edition
Might be the next vehicle for me. After researching, it appears to be a solid all around choice. Any current owners want to chime in? Always looking for feedback.

If you can stand a CVT then you might like it. The wife has a Juke with CVT and I’m not a fan.

Re: Nissan Rogue midnight edition
My wife had a '09 Rogue S when we met. After we found out kiddo #2 was on the way we traded it in because 2 rear-facing car seats weren't going to fit. On the pro side, it was comfortable, reliable, and had a ton of space in the back with the rear seats folded down. The CVT felt like a rubber band when accelerating and I think it's the reason it didn't get very good gas mileage (26ish mpg highway) but that was more on a "fun to drive" metric. We drove it from St. Louis to the rockies, and on several other road trips and the only issue it ever had was a CV joint replaced under warranty.
If our family hadn't outgrown it, we would still own it.

Re: Nissan Rogue midnight edition
I don't have anything to add other than, why not get the midnight edition Frontier?

Re: Nissan Rogue midnight edition
It’s good to hear CVTs are getting better. My wife’s Juke is a 2013 model and you can definitely tell it is a CVT. I had thought about a Maxima until I read about it having a CVT also. I guess all Nissans now have CVTs except for the trucks and the 370z and GT-R.

Re: Nissan Rogue midnight edition
We had an 11 Murano with the CVT...i loved everything about that car except the CVT. It definitely had some odd characteristics that I did not care about. I personally prefer a transmission that runs off of hydraulics and clutch pack engagement that something that runs in 4 wheelers and snowmobiles.

My mother has owned Rogues since they first came out and now she has a 2015 that she will be trading in in July. I have to agree that the CVT has come a long way, but it lousy if you are not used to it. She loves her Rogues and will only lease Rogues. The interior is top notch and so are its features, but they really need to work on its power. I feel it is underpowered and the CVT tries to hide it.

Re: Nissan Rogue midnight edition
While they look great when clean it just seems to me that black wheels would be a bear to keep looking good.

Re: Nissan Rogue midnight edition
Looking for short term vehicle or long term? Lease or buy?
What else you need ? Outback. Forester? CRV? CX5? Escape?
If buying for “longer” term. Me I would pick the CRV if looking for that segment of vehicle. If ok with a wagon would go Subaru.
