2001 Nissan Xterra SE

Our 2001 Nissan Xterra is a compact SUV with an emphasis on both Sport and Utility, unlike the SMVs (soccer mom vehicles) or GHVs (grocery hauling vehicles) that most of the current crop of SUVs have morphed into. This baby can do those too - but it can handle the rugged off-road side too. A powerful 3.3-liter, 180-hp V6 SO engine and 4WD. Low range gearing and a standard limited slip differential on this SE help make our Xterra a true off-roader, and being one of the few SUVs left to be built with a truck frame and suspension; this Xterra actually shines more on rough roads than dry pavement. Sturdy adjustable roof rails hold up to 125 pounds and come with a built-in storage basket.
