My best 4x4 of the three (Chevrolet 1998 Silverado 4x4, 200 Dodge Durango 4x4

After 20 years and 30k milage, my wife continues to have a reliable 4x4. I personally like the horsepower, and it's ability to go anywhere. My wife likes the o 6 CD stereo. She wanted this car because she wanted a 4x4 that was yellow, so she has named it "Sunny"

Bought new

Best vehicle I have ever owned !! Bought my 2005 Xterra new and have had 2 minor problems but I corrected them. Really handles great and has super acceleration when I need it !! Comfortable for long trips. Handles great on ice and snow. Plows right thru water .

install after market radiator before it fails and you will have a good rig

nice rig but they seem to have a known weak link and being the radiator fails on the earlier models and causes transmission problems. $$$$$$$ if you buy one make sure the radiator is not leaking into the transmission.

dependable

my trusty 2005 Nissan Xterra just finished an 8,000 mile cross country trip pulling a trailer. Cant say enough good thing about my SUV that I've owned since 2007. Just make sure you replace the radiator befor issues occur at about 80,000 miles...

Will keep my Xterra forwver

I fell in love with my “sunshine” yellow Xterra in 2005, and I am still babying it. Everything about her is the best. I will keep putting money into her to keep her alive - Thats how much I love her.

Love, love, love it!

We love our Xterra! It is our favorite vehicle we have ever owned. We have driven all over the US in rain, snow, sand. From curvy snow covered backroads of New York to the sand on beaches it handles ideally. We haul our canoe and kayak on top and it still handles well. It is everything we wanted our Land Rover Discovery to be but it actually works and mechanics don’t fuss about it. Very well rounded and a total badass.

2005 Xterra

Very good vehicle. Terrible local dealer. Took advantage of my wife on a service call for a tuneup. $1,400.00 later, I was pissed but out of town. Especially 4 years later when I had a analysis run on the engine and found when they did the tuneup they did not change out spark plug #1. It requires the manifold to be removed and the dealer charged my wife for it but did not replace it.

Getting old

I have had the Xterra for 3 years now it has 184,000 miles and it is starting to show its age, I am learning slowly what things go on it after time. I wish there were recommendation on what should be checked at certain years and mileage for older vehicles.

You're the TOPS.

I have had this car since 2005 when I bought it new. I LOVE IT. Have made many long trips (well--long for me) in it and I never get tired of driving it. One of my sons calls it my "truck" but I think of it as my TANK. I feel safe and secure in it on my drives. Thanks. Nissan!
