It covers your dwelling, other structures, personal property, loss of use, personal liability, and guests’ medical payments. A standard policy doesn't cover everything, so purchase additional coverage where needed. Homeowners insurance offers financial protection if your home needs to be repaired or rebuilt in the event of a covered peril.

The Pathfinder’s interior materials quality was among the best in our comparison test, lending an upscale vibe not unlike that found in models from Nissan’s Infiniti luxury brand. Its seats are comfortable and supportive in the first two rows, with plenty of room all around. Lots of soft-touch surfaces and rich quilted leather upholstery help set the Pathfinder apart from its competitors, along with nice touches like the only power-adjustable steering wheel in the group.

While the Ascent is close to most competitors in terms of overall length, the cabin is around 2 inches narrower than average, making for a lot less usable room for passengers. The Ascent scored the lowest for seat comfort in all three rows in our comparison test, and while the first two rows can accommodate adults, there’s not a lot of room to spare. The third row is suitable only for kids, and there’s not a lot of storage room for small items anywhere in the cabin.

The Sentra’s 2024 update brings improvements to its CVT that are aimed at smoother operation and improved fuel economy. In addition, the transmission can now mimic the feel of a conventional automatic with simulated gear changes. The improvements are largely successful, with less noise and a more natural feel while accelerating, but there’s still some of the droning noise and rubber-band feel that’s typical with a CVT.

The base powertrain combines a 255-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine matched with a nine-speed automatic transmission. Power is more than sufficient to get the coupe up to speed, though its estimated 6.2-second 0-60 mph time is not all that quick by current standards. If that’s not quick enough, the CLE450 gets a 375-hp, turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six-cylinder and is a couple of seconds quicker to 60 mph.

2024 Chevrolet Suburban diesel may be capable of towing a house, and is nearly as big as one. But it gets better mileage than a raised ranch, working out to 25mpg on my watch. https://t.co/wrLJN4pl2E
