Just got the 2005 Xterra info package from Nissan over the weekend. It doesn't have anything that hasn't been seen/mentioned here. I did notice on the photo showing the new 4WD system selector that they used the one with the AUTO mode. :rolleyes: Seems like by now they would know what they are putting in and then choose the right picture, that is unless they are giving the customer the option. confused

Stupid question - When selected, because it is electronic, is that locker truley locked or is there the same drawbacks as automatic 4x4 in the current model? Also no winch in the 4x4 package? Also if it has the same drive train as the Titan won't the locker be debugged by the time the 2005 releases?

The switch with the AUTO position was probably just borrowed from the Pathfinder, but I don't think that it has absolutely been ruled out that the Xterra could offer all-mode...

As for the e-locker, it's 100% locking and I don't think there's any debugging needed, haven't heard of any issues w/ it on the Titan. It's certainly compatible with an all-mode transmission.

You're kidding about a winch, right? Not even the Rubicon offers a winch, the Xterra sure as hell won't, not to mention there's no place to put it.

I know it's a pipe dream but I was kinda serious. What about the rear mount reciever plate? Or at least the hitch and plate. I'd spring for the winch if I had a place to mount it. Anything is better than a come-a-long. [Spit]

I know part of the fun of an all-new model is talking about what will and will not make it on the final model. But d@mn, this suspense is killing me! :p

I just keep wondering what the fuel economy will be like (oil at almost $50/barrel [Uh Oh !] )

Perhaps Nissan should look at the Unimog, and put a PTO driven winch in the front; and maybe a backhoe and snowplow attachment ... laugh

Forget it, unless the winch is to upright that blown over soccer goal [ThumbsDown]

I don't see them offering anything like any sort of winch plate, special reinforcing for a winch or any sort of PTO. wink

I think we'll have a hard enough time getting Calmini to make any sort of front bumper look right on the new X. It'll be hard, for sure.

Just in case it hasn't been mentioned, you can configure the 2005 Xterra in the future vehicles section at www.nissanusa.com .

After going through myself, some things I noticed:

Currently No 6 speed offered on the SE..?? confused I thought the 6 speed was going to be available on all trim levels.

VDC will be available only on the AT until April of 2005 when they will offer it on the 6 speed. :p

Hill descent and hill start available only on the AT.

Prices they have, although not final, look great!

Have fun. laugh

You can't get a manual transmission on an SE now, I'm not surprised the same might be true for the 05.

And: "Please note that final model and options as well as vehicle pricing will only become available at time of launch. Dealer sets actual price."

That Night Armor color looks interesting. And the Offroad version dosn't come w/ step rails. Just noticed that too.

Locking rear diff is part of the Off-Road package.
Ack, looks like the Off-Road trim is available in 2WD. That's disappointing...

Is it just me, or does "Granite" look a lot different? confused Looks like a shade of silver to me.

Nissan Must be kidding me! Crap, I tought they had promised that 6-Speed Manual & 5-Speed Automatic transmissions will be available on ALL trim levels thru different articles or their Autoshow. mad

I've been waiting so so long for this Xterra instead of replacing my pathfinder by a 4Runner earlier this year just because of this manual transmission they said they would offer! I'm not impressed by this empty promises! I should have been enjoying a new truck by now. [ThumbsDown]

What the heck are they doing? [Argue] confused

You're kidding, right? You mean to tell me that the manual transmission is so important to you, but whatever froo-froo stuff the SE trim includes is more important? Puh-leeze...

I'll have to see it in person to be sure, and at first I thought I just needed to get used to the new look. But from the first pics until now, one thought has been consistent about the '05: it's just plain downright fugly. [ThumbsDown]

Dunno, the offroad trim is the only one I am interested in:

Standard Features
• 6-spoke 16" Alloy Wheels
• Enhanced 4x4 capabilities (Locking rear differential, Hill Descent Control (HDC), Hill Start Assist (HSA), high performance Bilstein Shocks and unique final drive gear ratio)
• Fold-down passenger seat (plenty of room for long items)
• Power windows, locks and mirrors

and it comes with the six speed! In a couple years, I may have a new X smile

Looks like you can add all the SE stuff... or the stuff that matters to offroad...

Cool!

As for the black armor color, I wonder if that is the black/grey metallic color that was on the early frontier's/Maxima's that I loved... could Nissan have listened??? Can't wait to see a better swatch in the brochure or in person....

I have to wonder if something is screwy on their site (since it's sort of beta).

Hill descent has no use on a manual, hill start does. Vice versa with an automatic.

could be. I hope that isn't all the color choices...

That's what I thought, but I figured I would let someone who knew for sure comment on that smile I'm just happy to see the factory options and the acknowledgement of offroading in general....

What a piece of shit. [Wave] Nissan!

Ah well, at least you can get the Off-Road package without wasting money on 4WD.

I would take that as a no ... I guess hard core off road vehicles dont need leather, they should have seats made of burlap.

Leather is comfy, and I like it, so flame on
