Pros
Reliability
Twice saved my life .
Cargo Space
built my favorite garden entirely with its help
Ride and Handling
gives me a sense of safety and confidence in any type of incline on a mountain
Cons
Cabin Noise
dashboard vibration
Fuel Economy
maybe there are other cars with more fuel economy
Pros
Ride and Handling
The ride is great and handles well. Even with a 100lb roof rack tent, no swaying in turns at all.
Weather Versatility
Does great in any condition. Electronic rear locker is very handy.
Power
Plenty of power
Cons
Braking
Braking isn’t the best when loaded down, am considering a larger brake setup.
Pros
Seat Comfort
This is my 2nd XTerra. Can't beat it for comfort, storage space, and it's just a machine with V6 power...not a toy SUV. No frills tuft...just what I want in a vehicle.
Cost to Maintain
Just about any mechanic can work on a XTerra. They tell me you can't beat them for dependability and longevity.
Styling
I like the squared off shape...suits me fine. I am sit high enough to see above bushes at entry ways. It is a sound car and handles great. I can squeeze into narrow spaces and make a u-turn with no issue.
Cons
Pros
Weather Versatility
4 wheel drive
Power
very fast
Styling
tall profile
Cons
Seat Comfort
being 6' 7" the set could go back a little further
Pros
Braking
Awesome stopping power
Value
this vehicle is very reasonable in price and in my opinion a better buy than most other SUV's.
Interior Space
You have more interior room than you would expect, very comfortable for four adults.
Cons
Cargo Space
When you have the optional organization thing in the back your space is greatly reduced.
Pros
Cargo Space
More than enough room and functional cargo areas!
Visibility
Best visability of and SUV I have driven
Value
Great ride, power, and space, for an ultimate offroader
Cons
Seat Comfort
Could have been alittle more supportive
Technology and Entertainment
S modle lacked a few standard options that would have been nice. Nothing after market cant fix.
Pros
Cargo Space
Lots of room and geniusly designed cargo area
Reliability
So much more thought was put into this truck's longevity than my old Pathfinder. It's a Nissan, so of course it'll run forever, but the chassis, body and drivetrain are so much beefier here. I worry much less about corrosion. Nissan NA knocked this one out of the park.
Ride and Handling
Easy to drive. It doesn't wander like many new trucks I've driven. It's much softer than my old WD21; not as direct, but that's not nessesarily a bad thing. I've already taken the Xterra on two major road trips and its been great. You just want to keep driving!
Cons
Fuel Economy
If you're considering the Xterra based on fuel economy, you're a jerk! Does this look like a Prius to you? You're looking at 18mpg if you're lucky. If that scares you, you don't deserve this truck. Go buy a Hundai and good luck surving the zombie apocalypse, wuss!
Technology and Entertainment
The CD player sucked. Nissan dropped the ball here. It was srsly horrible. I couldn't swap to aftermarket fast enough.
Pros
Safety
Ride and Handling
Power
