I am a newbie in the market for a 04 Maxima for my wife.
It will also be our primary road trip car.
Most car mags show mediocre (at best) stopping distances.
C&D shows 197 feet from 70-0.
A Ford Expedition outbrakes it at 196 feet!

Any thoughts?
What do you guys/gals think of the brakes on your new max?

Thanks!

 

Mine is 2500 miles old, have not hit anything yet...

 

LOL

I haven't had any issues, it stops faster than my Excursion did.

 

Yea, but repacking the parachute on the Expedition after every 'hard' stop isn't an attractive selling point.

 

I never seen a FORD go fast enough to stop quickly.........

 

My Excursion was sweet, and a V10 will produce some get up and go... especially when it comes up behind you on the highway '

Ok, so the engine cut out at 100, but you don't want an 8000 pound truck going too much faster than that.
