Leave it dirty, it seems dirty cars have better luck avoiding damage....

I F-ing LOVE THIS CAR! It just idle-torque pulled itself out of snow that was up to the illuminated sill plates (about 9ish inches)! And this car is the easiest car to clean snow off of I've ever had, it's so small. It's doing pretty good on the salted snow-covered roads, and better than I thought it would on somewhat shoveled side roads. Started right up too. It's not a truck, but it's not bad. All-Season tires were aa decent choice. But we'll see...

Just had a panic attack seeing your Z in the snow…


Kidding, that’s awesome to hear your doing well in it!

5 Things I've noticed Daily-ing the Z:

5. The rear view is pretty good. Even with some pretty large plastic bags of recyclables, I could still see out of the rear window. You can put some fairly tall items in the trunk.

4. The passenger-side quarter window is "useful", but the B/C pillar can hide like 2 cars side-by-side at a 45-degree angle. Pulling out of Drive Thru's is a task.

3. The Automatic shifter is weird, but you get used to it. If you liked the famed Killer Shifter in the Jeep Grand Cherokee that killed an actor, it's similar but much more thought out. Neutral takes a half beat (Manual says 0.5 secs) bump of the shifter to engage, and Park as a button for Millennials is different. I like it though.

2. THE GAUGE CLUSTER SHOWS THE SPEED LIMIT! I know this is a small thing, but I buy whole cars based on the small things like this. I appreciate it.

and #1. You can pull up to you destination, and just turn the car off. Like DON't park the car. just... turn it off. It puts ITSELF into park and turns off! This might be a Nissan thing already, but I'm impressed! It also will just put itself into park if you open the door too.

This is fun. Learning about a new car, yes, but also having a car that is exciting enough to talk about.

More to come!

How do u get the “Auto Refuel” display to show in the tachometer display on the left?

 

[qellman32]

It only shows up in the "Normal" and "Enhanced" Meter Views (in the Menu button on the steering wheel). Once there, press the Menu button, go to "Personal Display" and select Fuel Economy or whichever you like. Then, on the Main Screen, scroll to the "Drive Computer" page and "Press OK to Change" to Auto Refuel. There are a few options to choose from.

**There are some other useful options once you change to "Normal" and "Enhanced", like the main Settings page, for those who were looking for it.**

Got it! Thanks!

The panic attack for me is that it is being driven in salt....I have to withhold my uncensored opinion about driving a rare car in salt....

Lol I know how you feel. Crappily that's how this has to go. My plans to move to California last year fell through and I was forced to stay in Michigan. I don't know if this is better or worse for some of you, but I do have a car wash subscription, so it stays kind of clean, unless it's too cold. If everything works out, my plans are to paint the Z a different color. We'll see.

Apparently, if you don't pay for the Nissan services, the lights on the "SOS" button go off. And no, I haven't tried pressing it to see what happens. But if I have to press it (and hopefully I won't have to), hopefully it'll at least call 9-1-1.

The SOS button is a direct connection to the Safety Connect system. If you were involved in an accident and required emergency assistance, you press the emergency assistance button, which connects you to a 24/7 response center. The agent at the dispatch center will then send the necessary emergency service providers to your location. The SOS button can help you call for emergency towing, police, or ambulance services.

Hmm... Nice.

No way!! So glad I ran into this post. I myself DoorDash as well and just bought a 2024 Nissan Z sport. I did use it for deliveries a couple times and loved it. Always wondered if someone else did too. I’m definitely going to watch this post.

30,000 MILES!!! And 1 whole year this month! I can't believe it! This car LOVES/LIVES to be driven. The comfort, the style, the SPEED, I love it! Can't get enough. The Z and I have been through a lot and it's been difficult (for a regular person), but here's to the future with The Z!
