Quiet7 Posted May 25, 2017 We've been on the forum for a while now (mostly lurking), but I'm happy to report that my husband just picked up our 2017 NVP from the dealership (finally!) and is on his way home with it right now! I am so excited! We are a family of seven plus a dog (and a cat). I will post again once I've gotten a good look at it and taken it out for a bit. 2017 SV V8 w/tech package in brilliant silver :) 3 Bamps, AA-ron and radin2son reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radin2son Posted May 26, 2017 Welcome, again... You will have to change your "My NV" profile as soon as you take a good look. We are partial to brilliant silver. 1 Bamps reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quiet7 Posted May 26, 2017 Ok, it's here! And it's beautiful! Updated my profile and added a pic. I do really like the brilliant silver. Taking it out for a spin later today! 1 radin2son reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quiet7 Posted May 30, 2017 So far so good! It's a bit of a learning curve, especially parking, but we're getting more and more used to it every day. I had a moment where I panicked a bit when I thought the top tether anchor in the middle of the 2nd row hadn't been installed by the factory, but then I realized it was just hidden under the upholstery and wasn't pulled through yet. We're still playing musical car/booster seats and trying to figure out where everyone fits. You'd think with five extra seats it wouldn't be that hard, but with differing ideas on where everyone wants to sit competing with where they actually *need* to sit it isn't as easy as it would seem! I'm sure we'll figure out the best arrangement for us as we go along. We haven't done any add-ons yet (unless you count the car seats!), but we did have it blessed today :) We do want to get a small utility trailer for hauling our riding lawnmower and other stuff like that, plus maybe a swing out hitch carrier or cargo box for long trips. I'd kind of like to have running boards, but so far we're doing OK climbing in and out without them. Talk to me in a month on that one! I still really do like the silver, more every day I think. I've never thought of the NV as particularly nice-looking vehicle (especially when viewed straight on the side), but I'm quite pleased with the looks of ours. And it does get attention, that's for sure! 2 ASD Dad and radin2son reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
handsomeNV Posted June 4, 2017 Welcome! Congradulation on your brand new NV! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chphilo Posted June 6, 2017 Welcome and congrats. I think Nissan NV is the best looking van out there. Some think it's an SUV. Some ask, "What is that thing?" We had some teenagers walking by the van he other day commenting how cool the van was. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
