X The Xterra
The Xterra is the most uncomfortable vehicle on the market today. Test drove it for twenty minutes before I bought it. Should have driven it for an hour so I could have found out how uncomfortable it really is. Even took it to an upholsterer to have the seat stuffed with padding...twice. Still felt like I was sitting on steel spikes pointed northward. I'm 6'4" and weigh 225lbs. Actually, I like everything about it, except the uncomfortable front seats.
Best value for the price
Best car I've ever owned. Very happy with our Xterra. Does great driving around town, in the snow, or on the beach. 4WD works great, have never been stuck, even been thru very deep water with no problems. Lots of cargo space. Comfy seats. Didn't particularily like the industrial looking fabric at first, but we are VERY pleased with its durability and ease of cleaning. Have not had to take it back to the dealership for anything other than routine maintenance. The first aid kit is indeed gimicky but it has definately come in handy. Highly recommended!!

Great vehicle
The xterra is a solid vehicle. It's reliable and provides some off-road capabilities. The V-6 is notorious for oil leaks from the valve gaskets so be careful, maintenance costs will be higher since it's an SUV and the gas mileage isn't good. Other than that it's a good vechicle for the right price.

01 Xterra
With only 4000 miles on the vehicle, I drove it to Northern Quebec from Augusta Georgia, towing a 4000 pound trailer. The vehicle never had a problem. Towed the trailer, kept up with traffic. Gas mileage was only 10.0 mpg, but what do you expect when dragging a barn down the highway at 70 mph?
