DUDE ^^ The truck in question is a 96 Nissan 4x4. I had one. Piece of crap, I hated it, nothing ever worked. No one mentioned anything about xterras, and that would probably fall apart on the trail anyway and she knows it, thats why its the highway queen.

Nothing against the newer ones, they seemed to have figured it out a bit past 97-98. Their interior will always be cheap S plastic crap, but what does that matter.

Before owning my current pickup I owned a 2000 frontier with the 3.3 and 60K and all I know is it was the biggest money pit I've ever owned needless to say I waited and bought a 06 Frontier with the 4.0 and I don't care what anyone says those new Frontiers haul ass and are built strong. For the year I had that thing I drove it hard off road and on and never a lick of trouble but due to buying a house and getting married the $300 + payment had to go and now I have my Yota which I love but just thought I'd give my opinion the old ones def suck

From what I can see, he was referring to a 1986 truck. Here's my math: 1986 + 20 = 2006 2006 + 2 brings us to today, 2008. 20 + 2 = 22.

Hence, 22 years old.

ONCE again Truck in question is a 96 NISSAN 4X4. They blow.

I have read good things about Frontiers, father n law has a 2001 now with 180k and runs like a champ, not a one problem. Changed timing belt @ 110k, three sets of pads up front and oil changes. Thats it.

I don't know what you guys are whining about, My 95 Nissan 4x4 was RELIABLE and unstoppable and far more DEPENDABLE than my yota. You never hear about guys on the nissan forum blowing headgaskets like you do here. I had an Infiniti G20, again, FANTASTIC car, I owned a Mercury Villager (Nissan Qust) and it was a GREAT van. So that's triple the experience that most of you had with Nissan products. They are every bit as good as Toyota truck, and honestly it is a matter of style between the two. The thing Toyota punches Nissan on the nose is Customer Service at the Dealerships. Nissan still doesn't have a phawking clue. So much so that I will stay with Toyota because the service department is so much better and that fact that I really like my toyota truck.

3rd try to point this out, 96 NISSAN 4X4 is truck in question. 1st year OBD 2. Nissan blew it. This truck sucks. Not ever going to argue they have some decent cars and technology

yah ah , I was just throwning my 2 cents in there about the nissan, granted I haven't seen that many on trail , the ones that I have wheeled with did just as well as the YOTAS I wheel with . the only reason I can not wheel this xterra is that the g/f owes to much money on it yet.
