Well I'm pretty certain now that what I have is an XE, although after reading the posts and checking some of the Owner's Club photos, I wish I had a 4x4 model.

All I've ever had is muscle cars so I don't know jack about the off-road scene ..can the 2WD Xterras still hang out to an extent? I'm not looking to get into heavy modifications but it would be nice to venture off the pavement from time to time.
