Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Cars / October 2006XTerra Opinions requested
Hello, I am considering the XTerra as a replacement for a Subaru Forester XT. I need a vehicle that can go onto heavily rutted dirt roads, cross small streams (runoff from snowmelt), travel on sand roads, gravel roads, limestone base roads, just about anything you could find up to the point of rockcrawling. It will be used to haul hikers to backcountry trailheads, camping equipment, backpacking etc. It should be very capable at elevations from sea level to 10,000' without noticeable loss of power. In the running are the XTerra, Toyota 4-Runner, and Jeep Liberty. Current vehicle is turbo equipped, and I like the available power, so adequate HP is important. The Subie just can't handle the really bad roads we encounter. Any opinions are welcomed. Thanks in advance. > Hello, > I am considering the XTerra as a replacement for a Subaru Forester XT.

Yes I work for Nissan No I don't work for Chevrolet No I don't own a Nissan vehicle Yes they are a decent vehicle for the money would I buy one now... hell no IMHO Nissan has turned the wrong corner... for the worst Stick with the Subaru > Hello, > I am considering the XTerra as a replacement for a Subaru Forester XT.

Thanks in advance. uh oh. as a relatively new '06 xterra owner, i value a nissan tech's opinion. what kind of issues have you seen? why have they taken "a wrong corner" and does your opinion hold for '06s? Is there anything different between those and the '07s? > Stay away of the 03's and 04's > [quoted text clipped - 32 lines] >> adequate HP is important.
