Nissan of Dyersburg - Trail-Ready Assurance in the 2026 Nissan Pathfinder Rock Creek® for Covington, TN Weekends

If your weekends alternate between gravel trailheads and school activity runs, the 2026 Pathfinder Rock Creek® is the rare three-row SUV that confidently does both without feeling compromised. It stands taller with an off-road-tuned suspension and all-terrain tires, and it looks the part with a unique bumper and grille, a sturdy tubular roof rack, and Lava Red accents that signal serious intent. Where it really separates itself is in the way capability meets clarity. The available HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor layers in Front Wide View for a 180-degree perspective at nose level and an innovative Invisible Hood View that virtually looks “through” the front end — handy when you are easing over ruts or threading into a tight parallel spot downtown.

Under the hood, Rock Creek adds muscle with a V6 output of 295 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque, channeled through a responsive nine-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. Standard Intelligent 4x4 and a seven-position drive-mode selector help you tailor traction for Sand, Mud, or Rut, so you feel planted in unpredictable conditions. Inside, Rock Creek-specific leatherette seats are rugged yet refined, and a Rock Creek Premium Package brings a panoramic moonroof, a heated steering wheel, Qi2 wireless charging with magnetic alignment and active cooling, and a 12-volt cargo outlet that proves useful at campsites. With seating for up to eight, LATCH AND GLIDE® second-row access, and up to 80.5 cubic feet of cargo room with rows folded, this grade supports real-world family logistics without giving up the fun.

The dual 12.3-inch displays redefine driver information and control. A high-resolution digital gauge cluster pairs with a 12.3-inch touchscreen that now makes wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ standard, so your maps, playlists, and messages are right where you expect them — without cables. Standard Safety Shield® 360 anchors a robust safety story, and class-exclusive Intelligent Forward Collision Warning adds a reassuring layer of detection in fast-changing traffic. For highway stretches, ProPILOT Assist on SV and higher grades eases the grind by helping with steering, acceleration, and braking support, and Rock Creek drivers will appreciate how this tech complements off-pavement hardware to create a versatile, go-anywhere feel.

For shoppers weighing which Pathfinder fits best, consider how you’ll use it. If trailheads, campgrounds, and unpaved shortcuts are part of your normal routine, Rock Creek offers meaningful upgrades that matter on day one. If your daily drive leans toward suburbia with occasional road trips, Rock Creek’s added ground clearance, towing capability up to 6,000 pounds when properly equipped, and camera-based guidance still deliver daily advantages — from snow days to tight garages. And thanks to the model’s three-row flexibility, you never sacrifice family-friendly practicality.
