I had a 1st Gen Nissan (pre 2005) Nissan Frontier (essentially the same vehicle minus the body from the dashboard back) and loved it. Lots of friends with the the Gen 2 Xterras too. Some had problems in 05 and a little into 06 but but they are still a awesome vehicle. Those 4 liters have some balls to them too. Same block the Nissan 350z uses, just stroked out.
