I know that bouncy feeling. I'm trying to find replacement front struts as the OEM ones are both leaking at 45k miles on our van but there seems to be nothing available nationally right now. So did you essential swap out the shock in the front strut assembly?

Shift gate. Ours dropped out as well. It'll take a tech a few minutes to screw it back in.

Many thanks for the input, it's good to have a sanity check on what I was seeing. And yes, with growing kids and longer trips we definitely want the V8. I think we'll just go the SL route since it'll also resell better. Appreciate all the thoughts.

Hmmm. That's not what i'm seeing on Nissan's national inventory listing. Across the country SVs seem to be all V6s and SLs are all V8s. There may be a SV V8 in there somewhere but the filtering doesn't seem to be working to narrow the list. Any ideas on how to find an SV V8? I've tried all the major sources (cars.com, autotrader, Nissanusa.com) but no luck.

So after years of considering the NV, our family of 8 is going to pull the trigger and get one in the next few weeks. As we look at dealer stock in our area, there are both 2017 and 2018 SLs available. Are there any appreciable differences that would make the 2018 worth the slight extra money? And am I right that you can't buy an SV with a V8 engine? Or are they just golden unicorns? Not a big fan of the multi tone interior of the leather in the SLs. Much prefer the grey cloth.
