Just wanted to post and introduce myself! Just got my 2002 SilverIce SE 4x2 two days ago after months of research. Love the way this thing handles! I had a RAM1500 before and had to get rid of it--->(Drips Oil, Drops Grease Everywhere!!) <---Repairs were too expensive! Have read many great things about the X and am looking fwd to much fun and adventure in it!

Let me be the first then to congratulate you on a very good purchase, as well as welcome you to the club..

Regardless of what you might see on here(the flaming, spell checking, whatnot), you can learn A LOT about your Xterra here.. Good Luck..

Yup XOC is a great source of info... some of usa have been around for almost three years and have gotten very comfortable with harrassing each other... so dont feel bad if you get some of it too... its all in good fun and honestly i dont think anyone takes it too seriously
welcome

haha
I was wondering who would sorta "break the silence" in the 2wd section after the episodes of stuff that went on the last weeks.
But it's all good! Welcome and enjoy!

One more for the 4x2 camp(thumbs up)..

Hi....glad to see another X 2WD member....enjoy! I am.

Thanks for the warm welcome peeps. I plan on doing a little "light" off-roading with my X, but nothing like some of the pics I have seen here! Some of you guys are just insane!! I have to use my X to go to work and travel in and can't risk the damage I have seen in some of the pics! I couldn't afford the repairs! I am in the Coast Guard and they don't pay us THAT well!! What really sucks is that I have to leave for a month and my wife is going to be driving my X all over the place and I won't even be able to see it!! Better get out the ol' cam-corder and take some pics of me driving around so I can watch and wish while I am away!

*Never* tell your wife you're going to miss your truck. Because all you are going to think about in that month is your wife, right??



Welcome!

Welcome aboard. Man the thought of having to shipout for month and leavin the X on the dock.
ARGHHH!!!

Ahh sacrifice for God and Country is a beautiful thing.

Ekh.

Welcome,

I see your from Charleston SC, you should join SEXC, or GCXC, I guees I can extend to there since im origionaly from there.

A tip I will give you: NEVER MENTION: Which is better a 2WD or 4WD. You WILL start a war.

Holy shit! I just noticed you live in Charleston too, Godzilla! Where abouts? I live in Goose Creek.. Let's meet up and talk X dude..

Shhhhhhh!!!!

TatsuoX---you have mail!

Welcome. I'm a new 4x2 owner as well. I will do some light trails with my hubby, but that's about it. We once owned a 4x4 Jeep Wrangler, and only went off roading in it twice. Two fun times, but not enough for me to justify the expense of the 4X4.

We are driving the X across country in August. It's going to be a great ride!

hey you should hook up with SCCX they are the local club... also im in huntington beach!!! small world

I also organize WEST X an annual gathering of X owners.. it takes place in October out at Calico Ghost Town near barstow... last year we had around 40 trucks... this year 20 have RSVPed already... I hope you can make it

Hummm. Wow yet another 2wd in O.C. That's at least 4 including Strom , Jason and Me on XOC.

I'm starting to see a dangerous pattern here of people buying their X's based on their own personal needs.

Based on your location, we could actually bump into each other.

I'm enjoying the site and meeting other X owners. It's been amusing and informative.

newport is a stretch... hes over buy the airport... i call that Costa mesa

i just realized... thats three 2wd X's in three bordering cities on XOC... and all of us have kids, how cool is that

Hey Todrick
All about finding similarities lately aren't you??
haha

hey i guess... its just wierd.. costa mesa and hunting are like almost one and the same... most jobs i have had have been in CM, the coffe house i used to hang out at(the one that all the bands came out of) is in CM... Orange county is big, with a high poulation but Costa Mesa, Huntington, Newport, and fountain valley are kinda their own small little community within OC

Just wanted to add that I too have a 4x2 XTERRA, do not need a 4x4 and live in Warm and sunny Charleston..AFB to be precise....

On the 2wd vs 4wd issue I have had both...It was economics for me..chose 2wd no regrets

hey welcome to you as well.

Hey fellow 4x2 wheelers,
I've been a lurker for about a month until about three weeks ago. Seeing as how so many people here are from sunny O.C. and other locales south of San Pedro, I figured the San Gabriel Valley could use some representation from a newbie 2wd owner. So anyway, just wanted to introduce myself. Got a 2002 Just Blue 4x2, and I am loving it! Got it on December 24th...no, it wasn't given to me (I wish!!). Let's just say I was in the Christmas Spirit...I give...and I Recieved. So anyway, just wanted to drop a line. Looks like a great group of people here; I've already gotten help with a few fixes. Glad to be one of the bunch.

Chris

Bwahahaha... the legion is growing

Awesome!
