I hear all the time " I thought Xterras were junk?" when I mention I bought one. I always tell them, do not compare the old to the new!
A little jealous that your big, fat, boxy, low-belly (might have more clearance, but looks low) 05 doesn't look nearly as lean, young, and cool as our classics? laugh

Honestly though, all offroad worthy SUVs are heading the same direction - bigger, lower, more comfortable, but just don't have that lean look nomore. Look at LR3 versus Discovery and 4runners.
