This car is a wreck waiting to happen. Maybe it's just my Xterra, but the steering is jumpy, it doesn't hold it's line in Hi-way driving and be careful if you think about taking it off-road. I've taken mine several times into the hills and mud of North Carolina and if you take a bump or a rut too hard the jolt the car gives you can easily put you in the passenger seat. My 1993 Jeep Cherokee handled the terrain with ease...even though I am going to get destroyed on my trade in....this car is going back and I'm buying something else. Good Luck

Get up and go. Anywhere. My wife had an '04 and the differences are tremendous. 4x4 is flawless in the snow. Gas mileage is around 20 mpg. Lots of storage compartments and lots of cup holders are a plus.

I purchased this SUV in June 2004. I have been very satisfied with it. While it is built for rugged use, it is excellent around town and on the highway as long as one realized this automobile is buit on a truck frame and responds accordingly. The interior is comfortable with well thought out space usage. No repairs have been required to date. I highly recommend this SUV.

I Love this suv, I bought it 3 weeks ago. Gas mileage isn't bad at all very similar to my isuzu amigo. It's definetly the quickest car i've had so far. No Hesitation and it's a blast to ride. I did love my 99 Amigo but this surpasses it big time.
