 I've owned my xterra for a year and a 
half and am currently trading it in 
for a Honda CRV.  The gas mileage is 
awful, the front seats are very 
uncomfortable, and the power and ride 
are fair.  It is an excellent off road 
vehicle, and has a great rugged look.  
But if you're not planning on doing a 
lot of off-roading and want decent gas 
mileage I would not recommend this 
car.
