Thanks for all the great advice guys. I think I am going to get the Fosgate system rather than an aftermarket. Had too many problems with aftermarket installations on past cars.

I like the idea of getting the XE with all 3 options. Not sure yet if I am gonna get 4x4 or 4x2. I do live in LA and doubt I will use the 4x4 often. I do surf, but I don;t know any beac hes in LA where you are allowed to drive on the sand. And I do snowboard, but it never snows heavy enough to need a 4x4.

I am a little concerned about the gas mileage though. How is it?

Again, thanks for all the great advice, I'll keep you posted on what I decide.

Also, are any of you dealer savvy? I see Nissan is offering .9 percent until the end of April. Does anyone have any idea if this will continue into May? If not I have to get going and buy one in the next 2 days.
