Anybody tow their junk with one? The newer ones are rated to tow 7k with the 5.7ltr. Obviously I'd want trailer brakes but I figure a fully loaded XJ @ 4000lbs a car trailer @ 1500lbs it should handle it respectively. I was looking at Tahoes, and Yukons, but these seem nicer, have more power, get better rated MPG and better reliability than the 2000-06 GMT800 GMCs. I need something seven/eight passenger nice DD that can do double duty.

The 5.6 V8 has lots of power, and the Pathfinder is running a slightly modified Titan frame, so it should have plenty of beef. A friend of ours owns one and he likes it a lot.
 
You could get a Tahoe with the Two Mode Hybrid system!
6.0 liter engine, 20 mpg city / 20 highway.
Minor trouble: availability / price.
