Happy-New-Year-3

The Destination Nissan family would like to take a moment to wish all our customers from Albany, Schenectady, Latham, Saratoga and Clifton Park, NY a Happy New Year. We would also like to thank you for a great 2015. See you next year!

The presents are all unwrapped, the wrappings have been cleaned up relatives have gone back home, and leftovers have officially been eaten. For many people, the only chore left is to start taking down those hundreds of holiday decorations that are spread throughout the inside and outside of the house. This taking down process of course includes the tree and all of its ornaments. Whether you have a real tree or a fake one you can not take the tree apart or put it out on the curb until it has been stripped of all its decorations, a chore that can be long and tedious depending on how many lights and ornaments were used this year.

Nissan has released a new video called “Undecorating the Tree” that offers a quick and easy way to remove those holiday decorations that fans of the GT-R are sure to love. In the video, one GT-R owner simply ties the end of the string of lights to his vehicle and starts driving which causes the lights to unwind itself from the tree making its spin and causing all the ornaments to go flying off. While this method may be perfect for sports car enthusiasts it may not be the most practical unless of course your tree is decorated with all shatterproof ornaments.

Check it out for yourself in the video below.

The Ward’s 10 Best Engines list for 2016 has included Nissan’s 3.5-liter VQ-series V6 engine that provided power to the 2016 Nissan Maxima. This annual list was first released back in 1994, and this is now the 17th time that a Nissan model has been included. Additionally, 15 of those 17 times were for the VQ-series engine which means that this is the most awarded engine in the list’s history.

WardsAuto editors stated that the 3.5-liter VQ-series V6 engine’s 61 percent new parts, reduced friction and weight, and new intake manifold were top reasons why it was included on this year’s list. Additionally, this 300 horsepower engine has improved its fuel economy rating by 15 percent to now offer a rating of 30 mpg highway*.

“When the 2016 Maxima hit dealerships in May, our team believed this redesigned 3.5-liter V6 engine would be an important piece of the puzzle,” said Pierre Loing, vice president, Product Planning, Nissan North America, Inc. “To be included in Ward’s 10 Best Engines list is a tribute to the outstanding design, performance and value of our new-generation Nissan Maxima flagship sedan. We thank everyone at Wards for this significant recognition.”

There were 31 different powertrains evaluated by WardsAuto in order to decide which vehicles would be included on the 2016 list. Through the evaluation process, which involved driving vehicles equipped with these engines on their daily commutes,  the editors considered comparative specs, application of new technology, noise attenuation, torque, horsepower, and fuel economy for each engine.
