mad I guess some people in this club like the uncontrolability of the 2000-04 Xterras.I'm sorry but I drove an '04 SE and did not like it.Every bump sent it jiggling all over the road like a vehicle sprung with rubberbands. The '05 (off road edition atleast)is alot less jiggly,has more power,better fuel economy and a much better driving position.i seriously believe that those who are heckling the new X haven't driven one and/or are set in their ways like old geezers who just like to complain,oh well misery loves company I guess.Wake up and smell the coffee.Aside from the somewhat scratchable interior,Nissan has done an incredible job of adding even more capability to the X.And yes I like the exterior, it looks BEASTLY!!!! Sorry I just had to vent, but I'm ok now smile
