R51 styling out of date?

So this am today at work my friend stopped by with his new Toyota 4Runner and everyone at work was outside drinking there coffee he parked right next to my 2012 Pathy so we decided to get some opinions on styling and overall flexibility. All 10 employees agreed that my 2012 Pathy does not look dated a few people felt that it looks a little out of date from the side but the front and back look just as current as the 2015 Toyota 4Runner. As a matter of fact more than half 6 people felt my 2012 Pathy looked better then the 4Runner. From the inside all 10 people felt the seating position and the seats were better on my truck (a common complaint of 4Runners are the seats and seating position). Most felt the dash material on my Pathy looked old and out of date but no one felt it was terrible just not as good as the Toyota. Everyone felt the back was much more useful on the Nissan with more space and better tie down positions. I have driven both and much prefer my 2012 Pathfinder to the new 2015 Toyota 4Runner. So there you have it our old R51 Pathfinders are not so old after all.
