It has a funny suspension that sounds fukefukefuke and it sounds like a speed motorboat vuuuuuuuuhhm!!!! LOL.

Well its a good buy and its a fuel guzzler. It drinks fuel compared to other V6 powered engine i know of. Good luck with the vehicle.

Wait! Are you talking about that same suv that blows only air while moving at 40km/h even when you hit the pedal to the metal?

My friend, you better get outta here and go & get yourself a 2004 tokunbo Bmw X5(4.4Litre) or 2003 ML430 grin

I don't like a thing about the truck. The seat is like a teacher's chair, moving like a snail at full throttle, I know suspension Issh is common to most trucks but exterra leads. Fuel!
Well, Op, since u like it buy it and enjoy your ride.

I don't know if the SE trim I own is different from the XE dats very common oh,but I love my truck die

ride is harsh and bumpy on rough roads but that's normal for oda trucks too

only regret is not getting the version with a supercharger as acceleration is slow truly angry

mine doesn't drink fuel....I repeat,it doesn't drink fuel!!

ur say on the chair tho grin grin grin

mine has the headmaster's chair wink

The xterra is not known for speeds. It is a sluggish beast. Prone to chassis noise especially if you drive over bad roads frequently.

If you can relocate the knock sensor to somewhere reachable pls do as bad fuel kills it and opening the engine to replace it is not easy work.

Even though its a V6 engine it only uses about less than 4 litres of oil for servicing. Don't let kazeem pour 5litres or even 6 claiming its a big engine.

The transmission is rugged. Uses Nissan matic d. I have only serviced mine once since I bought it and it will clock 5years in June.

Google xtrerranation and read up about your suv.

D only thing I easily notice abt d SUV is high ground clearance for great off road experience. It is abt d cheapest SUV on naija road toks or naija used.

It's ugly as it looks like soldier ant, 2002/2003 pathfinder is preferable if cost is ur problem.
The pathfinder is a complete package n cheap too
My opinion though

He should find one without rust.
