Default New 13 GS Owner

It’s been about a month since I owned the vehicle. I traded in my 2011 Nissan Altima with 310,000 miles for a 2013 GS AWD with all the bells and whistles of except the F sport badging and folding mirrors.

After 1 month of ownership she’s a thirsty girl. About half the range of my Altima.

Put about 1,300 miles or so, and it’s comfortable not nearly as enough headroom for someone who’s 6’5 with broad shoulders and my I’ve noticed my left shoulder cramps during extended drives. She was a former fleet vehicle with 68,450 miles and I got it for 21k which was a crazy good deal that I can’t believe. During the first 2 weeks of ownership I got the dreaded headlight flickering and a dead battery. Which the dealership replaced free of charge.


I’ve joined this great club to learn more about my vehicle and how I can also improve it.

You really don’t. I’ve only seen one other white 16+ GS on the road. If you’re ever further up north or in Boston reach out and we can do a little photo shoot.

Thanks.

There’s a lot of small chips and scratches so it’ll definitely need body work.

If you still find it too cramped try a 2016+ Lexus ES.
