Finally... The Max has come home

After tons of stress and headache on getting my car, I finally got her home on Thursday. I ended up with a 2014 SV Sport. The dealership tinted it pretty nice, 30 percent all the way around and top quarter of the windshield. I was really upset about the radio, but it's ok. I have gotten used to it. I was also a little skeptical about mpg's but it has gotten better as we go. It was only getting about 8-9 mpg's. I finally got a chance to ride around for about an hour and it has gradually gotten to around 26. I am happy. The only thing that I was really wanting was the navigation package because of the Bluetooth streaming. I have a lot to learn about the car, but it's coming together for me.




Any suggestions on how to transfer your address book to the car?

Another satisfied customer, welcome aboard!

I have the S model an was told by the dealership I have to manually enter each contact, F that! I believe your model can take them all at once.

Que? I have a 2010 S (non-Bose) and mine loads all of my contacts in. After I first paired my phone(Android) up with the car my phone prompted me about the car having access to the phonebook, I said OK and it proceed to load my phonebook so I could call people by name and when I received a call their name would show up on the screen rather than their number.

Congrats King! Got my own 2014 Sport/Tech today after weeks of research, decision making and looking for the best deal. I understand how you feel. The effort was certainly worth it. I used the 98 SE that I bought new 16 years ago as a trade-in. It feels good to remain a part of the Org.

Welcome BB!

You'll find the MPG and the MPH are intimately related.
My current daily drive to and from work nets me about 18.5 mpg/25 mph.
One could argue that I don't get good gas mileage and that is true to the extent that my journey to and from work is less than 17 miles of stop and go driving.
Enjoy your new ride!

Thanks everyone. I have totally enjoyed my car so far. Yes, there are some small hiccups, but nothing's perfect. To be honest, a few of those are things I just haven't mastered yet. I'll post pics of her soon. It's been raining like crazy. I just want to get her detailed just one more quick time. LOL!! She rides fairly smooth, but firm for sure due to the "sport" suspension. Well, thanks again!! It's good to be official now baby!!!

BTW, I plan to do some very small mods so I'll be posting some questions soon.

I have an iPhone. Going to have to try this again or check my manual. Thanks for the note.

I haven't used the car's interface for the phone in ages, Siri works over the cars bluetooth and it's way quicker and more accurate than Nissan's system.
