Nissan Rogue: You got declined to finance a Kia Sorento, so here you are.

[johnroussakis]

Nissan Rogue: the official automobile of “We’re sorry, the number you’ve dialed is not in service.”

[wescoleman]

Nissan Rogue: It has the Biggest Altima Energy because it's literally a big Altima.

[jacobrzeszewski]

Nissan Rogue: the official car of "I tried turning it off and on again... What do you mean you can't help me?"

[jseeker]

The best part of waking up is Mr. Regular spitting fiery vitriol at Nissan.

[isellair]

Nissan Rouge: The official car of the NPC driver who doesn't move far enough ahead at the left turn so you have to sit at another red light.

As someone who's trying to get into the car world, I really appreciate the direct vs. port fuel injection segment. I'd kill to see the RCR crew put out dedicated videos with that type of content.

I once worked on the line that assembles the Rogue, can confirm we're all drunk. And there's a 1 in 3 chance I've touched that junk heap.

Nissan Rogue - The official car of "searching for a new car before the warranty runs out"

Also for Mr. Roman, EuroNcap, the european automotive institute for safety, recently put out a statement for pushing automakers towards putting more physical button and commands for basic functions instead of hiding them in complicated menus in the infotainment screen, since to their studies some function like climate or wipers (looking at you Tesla) are more detrimental to safety if put in a screen instead of buttons. So half a win for analogue lovers!

Fun fact: a lot of locksmiths wont program new keys to nissan rogues because certain years had a chance of bricking the Body Control Modules if you try to add a key. It happens to the Nissan technicians too, they just replace the bcm and dont tell you if it happens. There was no recall for it, and it usually occurred with the push to start rogues.

my nissan rogue story is that my karen neighbor backed into my new corolla with 898 miles on the odometer the day i finally got the license plate in the mail. she was driving an f150, but she gave me an expired insurance card for a nissan rogue. that's the kind of person who owns this.

“Out of all the Japanese manufactures, Nissan is the WORST”

*Mitsubishi has entered the chat*

[ad]

My wife travels frequently for work and her employer rents her cars. Stingy as they are, they get her a compact car. Her last car was a Kia Soul. She's gotten a Chevy Spark.

A couple cars ago she was at the counter and the person in front of her had chewed out the clerk. So when her turn came, she joked around "What crawled up his ass and died, eh?" Her kindness earned her an upgrade, a Nissan Rogue. She was excited not to drive a clown car.

After a week with the Rogue, she wanted the econoboxes back. That's saying something because she doesn't give half a crap about cars.

Nissan Rogue: The official vehicle for "Buy Here Pay Here" lots to shaft you even harder than the 13 Nissan Altimas on the lot.

[thegoldencaulk]

Nissan Rogue: The car that answers the question of "What's worse: ignorance or apathy?" with a half-hearted "I don't know and I don't care."

[aaronswink]

Nissan Rogue: The official car of "F*** it....I'm done..."

[allwrathnograpes]

The Rogue is the darling of the rental car industry. No one complains about getting a Rogue. The yuppies going from Park City to Telluride aren't going to crash it, they don't have fleet wide recalls like Chrysler products. They just chug along with the pedal matted, making the same three semitone fake upshifts, the engine drone and flat bottomed steering wheel becoming strangely familiar

25:19 "Life is better the less of a voice you give other people about the things you enjoy" Well said, Roman
