I have few questions about Rogue, hopefully you could help.

1. Can Rogue use the regular gas ? No premium or supreme gas are needed, right ?

2. How effecient and enjoyable is the manual (shift) drive ?

3. Does Rogue need a break-in period (like not speeding over 100 km/h) ? If yes, how longue is the break-in period ?

Thank you.

The sale person told me just don't go crazy for the first 500 Miles and I should be fine.

Go crazy as in accelerate really really fast, or sudden stop from high speed, etc. Just speed up smoothly, and breaks smoothly.

Just for the record, the manual says take it easy for the first 1,200 miles...

I'd listen to the manual =)

I'm using the 87 gas, and as for the manual shift... I played with it the first week, then got tired of doing it my self and havent used it since.

that manual shifter will be most useful if you want to pass a car, just give the paddle shifter a quick tap to change the gear right away.
