Do you drive a Nissan Armada?

Long story short, we bought a car a couple of months ago and within two weeks it was stolen out of our driveway. They still have not found it and consider it gone  
The insurance company paid to replace my kids carseats and paid kelly blue book value of the car. So now we are back to square one. I am pissed because we bought that car for a great deal and paid for more than half of it in cash!
So... we found another one that we are going to look at tomorrow and it's a Nissan Armada 2007. What is your experience with this SUV? My dad seems to think it's an over priced vehicle but we need something big with all of our kids.
Do you own one? Pro's and Con's... Thanks ladies 

IMO, its a great car but you have to think of the price of the upkeep.
its a FUCKER to take care of price wise.

Yeah but I figure that I will have to do that regardless. We need something that will comfortably fit four full size carseats and have room in the back for a double stroller. So we will need a huge car..

have you looked into the chevy traverse ? <33 i love love love love that car.

also, the tahoe is good too.
and the ford exlorer eddie bauer edition.

all of those have alot cheaper upkeep!

tags for a brand new..or even a newer modeled one is freaking expensive- specially here in AZ

tires are super expensive and gas is really really expensive

Well we hate ford so that's not an option lol. I haven't looked into the chevy traverse so we will have to check on that tomorrow. Thanks  

Dh wanted to buy one a couple years ago, we were really close when he decided to get a 4 runner, his decision was based on gas prices, but it's a really nice car..

Sucks they only paid the bbv...

Yeah I got really depressed about it because we have never driven a car that nice before. And low and behold it gets freaking stolen! This time we are going to have to get low jack for it and gap insurance.

Haha we used to pray that our Honda Pilot would get stolen because the payments were crazy one it! It never happened lol. Of course you get a car that you love and someone steals it.

ya that's bs!! Dh is so paranoid our cars are in the garage...

My point in saying he almost got it was that he is a review nut... So it must be a good car...

lol. my car payment is soooo high, its not even worth half of what we bought it for 3.5 years ago. i pray someone steals it and burns it to the ground. i have gap insurance so it will be all good lol

Yeah I am pretty much sold on it but we will have to test drive it tomorrow and see if they can give us a deal. They want $24,000 for it and it has 54,000 miles on it..
