The Pool Boy

Roscoe (the rogue)

Power bottom (since he’s a dude and you’re all up in his guts every day, and he’s turbo’d)

Ricardo Montalban

Average (since you got a white rogue, if you went black woulda gone a different way)

Keep hanging out man. We haven’t had a Z or a Nissan for years now but I’m still here, I’ve got Internet forum buddies that I’ve “known” for like 10+ years now. :icon17:

Yea, 1.5 3 cylinder turbo. Has some giddy up, but I question how long a 3 cylinder can lug around a 3700 lb vehicle, hence the reason for leasing. Also the variable compression thingy is scary. :icon17:

The salesman bragging about how much better the new motor is over the 4 banger was laughable. I told him it’s like bragging about being the tallest midget in the circus. He didn’t get it. So much dealer fluff added to this vehicle but again, I’m renting it for 18 months to see how the market shakes out.

I like Roscoe!

A quick 5 things I hate about the Rogue....

One touch windows is drivers only.
No locking gas door. Capless is cool, but even more reason to have a locking door.
No ventilated seats.
No power folding mirrors
Wired android auto.

C’mon Nissan, for $42k I expected a little more.

Does the gas door lock when your doors lock and unlock when you unlock the car? Sometimes they’re set up that way.

Yeah, in 2022 for that $$$ it’s pretty :icon14. The no power folding mirrors would bug the **** outta me.

Just double checked... doors are locked, gas door opens. Unacceptable for a $42K vehicle.

Question: Were these items not checked before signing the dotted line?

My vote is to take the car back and get your Z back.

This to me also seems like the only viable solution.

I might just do that, but not because of the rogue. I’m still waiting on the check for the Z. Told them if I didn’t get it by tomorrow, deals off.

Wait, what? So the dealer didn't cut you a check on the spot? Most dealerships should have this option.

This could be a good thing. Go get your car back!

Sh1t, well then maybe there’s a setting for it buried deep in the MMI somewhere perhaps?

Or Nissan just sucks donkey balls now.

I’ll look when I get some time, but I’m leaning towards sucks donkey balls...

Yea, I’m definitely having buyers/leasers remorse right now.

The main thing is my wife loves it. Happy wife, happy life!

I should have went with the Mazda CX-5, but they wouldn’t give me shift on the Z and the dealer was an hour and a half away.

I’ve got 17 more months to figure it all out. Bottom line is I got way more for the Z than I expected, but also paid more on the Rogue than I should have compared to the Mazda. I consider it a wash.

Once again, car dealers are one of the lowest beings on this planet... one step above lawyers... it’s a rigged game, but nobody put a gun to my head.
