These days most sport utility vehicles have become a bit watered down. In an effort to make SUVs more comfortable and compliant, many have become void of versatility and personality.
One exception, of course, is the Nissan Xterra. Updated for 2010, the Xterra features rugged body-on-frame construction, meaning it can still tackle just about anything you have to throw at it. It also has a robust 4x4 system complete with a 4WD low setting should you want to take on more extreme obstacles.
But aside from its heavy-duty underpinnings and off-roading hardware, Nissan Xterra Auburn WA drivers note that the comfortable ride and precise steering belie its aggressive off-road credentials.
Now, the Xterra is not for everyone. It’s ruggedness, power, and versatility, make it stand out from the crowd, but it certainly is lacking when it comes to amenities and luxury, as this review from CNET depicts. All told, you may find however, that the Xterra is a unique offering in a crowded segment and it still boasts plenty of value.
