Not sure if i've mentioned this before, but I took over the Rogue section of NICO to try to get it off the ground.

I recently did a Rogue review, and we're going to publish it on Nissanrogue.org and hopefully some other places on the 'net.

I'm not very good at reviews since this is my first one.. so I thought i'd ask my friends in the 'vert forum for your opinions and any suggestions on editing, rewriting, formatting, etc..

http://nissanrogue.org/review.shtml

Thanks guys and gals.

The aricle is pretty darn good man. I did notice a few small type-os though.

"When you combine the I-AWD with the standard Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDS)"

-I think is supposed to be (VDC)?

"The brakes feel strong and confident and the standard ABS ensure safe stopping."

-Should be "ensures"

"It’s tall enough to get to the campsite or handle some of winter’s worst while giving the driver a nice view or the road."

-Should be "...while giving the driver a nice view of the road."

Other than those it is really good. I especially liked your definition of a superhero. Good job!!!

Thank You!!

That's exactly what I needed. I'll get those errors fixed. Sometimes when you've been staring at text for so long you just don't catch some of those mistakes... it takes a fresh eye to snag them. Thanks for taking the time to catch those.. I appreciate it!

Looks good. The Rogue would be tempting me if I hadn't just got the Versa. That and 20K base hurts (but not for the segment its in).

I see these possibly being a popular 'tuner' car down the road. If all the technology doesn't get in the way. Any word if Nissan ever beefed up the rods in the QR? If so 8-10psi turbo setups on them in an AWD setting would be cool.

lol.. thanks for the compliments.

I do what I can to help NICO as a whole.. one of the projects I took on recently was helping to get the Rogue forum off the ground until we can get an outstanding Rogue owner/expert to take over mod. duties there.

Nah.. I am fairly certain you won't see my work in any car mags. anytime soon.

Of course.. I'd sure like to take a crack at the new GTR when the time comes!!!
