Large families have many good reasons to pick this seven-passenger SUV. There's the safety of intelligent emergency braking; the convenience of the EZ Flex system, which allows easy access to the rear bench by tilting and sliding the right side of the second row, even with a child seat securely strapped in; and the class-leading towing capacity (6000 lbs. or 2722 kg) of the 3.5-litre V6, perfect for a big boat or trailer. The tri-zone entertainment system is icing on the Pathfinder cake.
