Alright. I recently brough the max to a nissan tech, who explained to me, that the fourth gen, in seriously short driving conditions will lower mpg to around 16 mpg. So if you live a a college town where ya stop ever half a mile, fear not, its the city, not the car. Also, if anyone has unexplainable pulling on the steering wheel, where every problem, including radial pull has been ruled out, nissans, as noted by a man i took the max to, said many lowerd nisssans, in particular, max's and z's can have perminant toe misalignments that can only be fixed by compensating on the adjustment rack or moving the lower control arm out (unorthodox, yes, but you should see the guys shop). anyway, I dont know who this will help, but its my 2 pense

 

Disagree with this part. Even while my EGR system was forked up, I still got 20mpg in heavy downtown DC traffic. I still pull 24-25mpg doing 50/50 city & highway driving.

Just my 3 yen...
