Hey guys!
My buddy is thinking about buying a new rig. He drives a 98 Ford Explorer that has served him well. But he's getting tired of it and wants to get a Pathfinder or a Xterra. We looked around and he seems to like the Xterra the more he looks at them. One thing he can't get over is that there's no leather in an Xterra. One of the guys at the Nissan Dealership has said that leather wasn't an option with the Xterra. Is this true? He also said its was an aftermarket thing you could buy. What confused me was that the display Xterra in the main room had leather. That's the main stopper for him. If he can't find the leather, he most likely will settle for the Pathy.

His budget is around 10K and under. He doesn't like the first body style with the square headlights. He would prefer the years with the round headlights with the bar across the grille, or newer Xterra. What do you guys think? Any input would be appreciated.
