2008 Nissan Pathfinder Transmissions

[pkgbear]

I am seriously considering buying a new, 2008 Pathfinder LE. I've noticed a few postings where people are saying that the truck downshifts abruptly at 40mph. Is that true or a random incident?

I've never noticed that on any of the test drives I've been on whether it be an 05, 06 and now and 08. Can someone shed some light on what they are referring to?

Is the 08 Pathfinder a great investment? I have a great offer on the table and all I have to do is say ok and the truck is mine but I am hesitant now that I read that "shifting" remark.
