Hey everyone! My name is Joe and I own a 2004 Nissan Armada LE Fully Loaded 4x4. I was very happy to find this forum when searching for info on my new ride and wanted to introduce myself here. I live in "Sunny" San Diego, CA (Even though it's raining today lol) and this is my first Nissan SUV. Prior to this I owned a 1996 GMC Suburban that I have now retired after 175k miles and hoping to let go of it soon. I was a big fan of GM and almost bought a Denali instead but there was no way once I drove this bad boy and since then there has been no looking back! I do also own a 2001 Nissan Altima GLE that I bought for my wife. Looking forward to making some new friends and getting lots of info on my 04 Armada aka HardMaDa!

Welcome to the club!!!! My only deterence from the Yukon XL at the time was the crunched leg room in the third row and in '05 they didn't have a fold flat 3rd row.

Welcome to CA HardMaDa. All good people here with lots of Armada experience.
I also was interested in the Denali and had the same thoughts about the 3rd row. I looked at just about everything out there and narrowed it down to the Armada and Toyota Sequoia. Sequoia also had cramped 3rd row but beat the other choices in most other areas.
Armada won and have been very happy with my choice since.

Welcome to the Club!! I too gave thoughts to a GM, but after 4 years and over 100,000 miles, I'm glad I stuck with a Nissan!

Welcome to the club Joe / HardMaDa04LE!

Welcome to the club. I allso wanted to get a Yukon the only problem i had with it it was a GM.

Welcome to CA!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys! Really looking forward to being an active member in the forum. Nice to know that I wasent alone on the GM consideration. Happy with my purchase because at 6'6 and 300lbs plus a Family of 5 with 3 Boys, I needed all the space I could get in all 3 Rows!

Hope you have as much fun as I do!!
