Beast of a Vehicle
awesome outdoors vehicle for hunters and fisherman. I love this car. It does real well going four wheeling. Especially if you have super aggressive tires.

awesome truck
This is the best , most reliable, most versatile, best looking SAFEST vehicle I have ever owned. period. (camaro, mustangs, grand am gt etc etc ) I had the great 2001 in super black and she was damaged in a head on with a drunk (only frame bent engine intact!) I survived and went back to this truck...in a 2007 model. the 2007 is an ARABIAN........ while the 2001 is a billy goat. BOTH capable of anything you want from it, but the 2nd generation is a serious upgrade in comfort and power!! killer looking, reliable if properly cared for, (oil, and tranny changes ) comfortable leg head room and great suspension that can not be beat ! But best of all is the life saving FRAME ON BODY TRUCK FRAME that will SAVE YOUR LIFE!! This is not just another pretty face, (or crossover). gas milage is surprisingly good at 18 -19 in town. Rides very smooth. roof racks and bin are the best of the off roaders. That bin is worth it's weight in gold for surfers or outdoor types who throw wetsuits on top...and that plastic easy to clean cargo area in back is genius. rugs are for houses yuck lol always check the timing belt chain condition as this is rather important....and if possible UNDER COAT !! "beach , surf ,ski , big hairy dogs, boating, fishing gear and sometimes dead fish... twins, drums, include all in the fun machine!!! no worries. I hope nissan keeps the line going for all us diehard X lovers! long live the x!!

My 2007 Xterra
Purchased 2007 Nissan Xterra because of good reviews. After driving it for less than two years decided to sell, because my Xterra was breaking all the time: replace check engine sensor twice, replaced tire pressure sensor for $350, air conditioner broke, oil started dripping and so on, so on. Terrible fuel economy, barely 15mpg in the city and 17 on freeway. I'm selling it. No more Nissans for me.

Most reliable vehicle i've ever owned
I love this car! This car has been just about maintenance free for over 92k miles and kicking. Besides your regular oil and filter changes the only thing I've had to do to this car is replace the sending unit in the fuel tank(45 minuet job $80). Im still on the original brake pads and the original clutch! My first tire change was at 85K miles! And I have not babied this car at all. I've taken it to the middle of the Mojave desert, jumped it, towed over 4k lbs 1800 miles! My job makes me put 150-200miles on it a day. The only sign of wear on this car is a little wear on the fabric on the drivers side seat. This car is bulletproof!

Xterra excels.
I purchased a high mileage 2007 in very good condition and find it meets or exceeds my expectations for a great basic utility vehicle with 4x4 when needed. The ride is very good, interior room is good, amenities are all very functional and power is very good. Mine has the automatic transmission and I get 17mpg around town and 25mpg on the highway. It tows my trailer well when needed. Glad I went with the Xterra.

Fun, just plane fun
I've have my Xterra for just oner a year and I just love to drive it. Off road it excellent and on the road nimble and quick. The interior is perfect for my lifestyle, kids, fishing, camping, kayaking and boating. It is barebones, you have to turn the lights on yourself and instruments are minimalist. Less to go wrong in my opinion. Seats are solid and hold up. Cleanup is easy. The X has plenty of power and pulls my 18 foot boat without a problem. Gas milage is around 18 in mixed which I consider good, I stepped down from a Tahoe that was getting 11 mpg. I'm very happy and impressed with the Xterra.

Smartest Decision
I bought the Xterra about 6 months ago, and I loved and continue to love every second I drive in it. It handled one of the worst winters RI has seen in years like a dream. I pushed through snow two feet deep with no problem! Its the true meaning of a Sport Utility Vehicle.. Before the camping season was up I packed it up and headed to CT for a long weekend camping trip. The X pulled my 2,500lb pop up with ease and handled all the elements mother nature threw its way. The only down side I would have to say is that if its a seriously windy day, the wind will take you for a left to right ride on the highway. The 4.0 has surprising power and will for sure eat the gas, but you have to expect that with any SUV. I have to say that this SUV is not ment for everyone....If your looking for heated seats, sunroof, power everything, navi, etc., etc. dont even bother looking at the Xterra. Its the type of vehicle that is ment for the active lifestyle. If you bike, hike, camp, ski, etc. this is the best SUV you can buy... I use my Xterra as a daily driver and it handles great in the city streets as well as the highway drives. All in all if you want a reliable, rugged, great looking SUV....BUY AN XTERRA!

Good truck for its intended purpose and more
My '07 Xterra has been rock-solid reliable and fun to drive. it has a sporty feel that most SUVs lack. It is totally successful as a city car and as a recreational rig for camping and offroading. It is only fair as a long distance cruiser. I drove it to Alaska and back on the Alcan a few months ago--no problems, no disappointments. Got about 20mpg at 60-75mph cruising.
