Have had it a few weeks, it's the sv with the dohc 4.0. Put 1400 miles on it so far and so far it has exceeded expectations.. happy to be here.

Hi All, Finally got to the dealer to get a quote on a 2015 model. This is for the following configuration: 2015 Nissan NVP SV V8 in Arctic Blue Tech Package (Nav, Bluetooth, etc.) Tow Package (Class IV, Weight Distribution Ball Mount) 10 Year / 125,000 Bumper-to-Bumper Service Contract "Free" Oil Changes for life and engine guaranteed for life Sales Price: $37,690 Service Contract (Warranty): $4,185 Dealer Fees: $300 Gov't Fees: $331 (I think this is registration fees for Maryland) Total Taxes: $2,279.40 (This is sales tax for Maryland) This unit is in stock at another dealership. TOTAL COST: $43,785.40 Is this a good price? I am particularly concerned that the warranty may be overpriced. We are very interested in this long warranty as we will be towing a trailer across mountains with this truck and want everything fully covered. I tend to view the first price a dealer gives me as a starting point for negotiation... I was hoping to get this vehicle with these specs on the road for $40,000. This is nearly $4,000 over right now, and I suspect there isn't that much wiggle room. But maybe?

I have an 2014 NV 3500 SL that was 4x4 converted by Advanced 4x4 in Salt Late City. As part of the conversion, I had a Aluminess winch bumper installed. There was no way to make the proximity (sonar) sensors work with the new bumper, so the sensors were disconnected. In doing so, the rear sonar no longer worked either, as the SL trim package is designed for front and real sonar. After much research, I was able to replace the sonar module with a SV version that once installed allowed me to use the rear sonar (SV model only comes with rear sonar). The part number is 285321pa0b and ran about $111. This replaced the SL module (285321pa1a). The module is behind the glove box in the interior of the vehicle (which took some figuring out as well). I assume a similar swap would work for all Nissan SL vans/trucks in which the owner replaces the front bumper and loses the front sonar (and subsequently the rear as well). I hope this helps out other owners. Of note, I did not have to change sonar on/off switch on the dashboard.
