Apparently, I'm lucky enough to own a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder LE...the single year between 2000-2009 with the worst maintenence record.

Apparently the top issues are:
#1 - Radiator cracks and leaks into tranny (class action lawsuit pending)
#2 - Fuel sending unit croaks
#3 - Cats go at 100K
So far I've survived #1, but #2 burned me at 80K (Nissan did a good faith repair before it was eventually recalled). #3 is knocking on my door. I get a P0430 code and simply reset it and drive on. I also had to rebuild the driveshaft at 72K.
Anyone else out there own one of these maintenance hogs? Oh, I've also had to replace the entire throttle body and the Engine Control Module (ECM) was replaced under recall.
