2001 Nissan Xterra Usados en Venta

I purchased this car about 5 years ago with 100k miles on it. So far, I've had to replace: timing belt (wore out), fog lights (burned out), A/C fan (burned out), leaf springs (1 snapped), head gasket (coolant leak), front grill (plastic pins holding it broke off), 4 small suspension parts...I forgot what they were called. I maintain the vehicle regularly, but a lot of parts appear to be cheap and fall apart. Especially the plastics, plenty of rattles and squeaks on every bump. Bumpers are also poorly built and fading. In the 2 years I've had the vehicle, it has cost me about $3,000 in repairs on top of the regular maintenance. Great off-road (Can't stress that enough) but poor quality parts make it less appealing.

First off my Xterra looks nice. It's not big and bulky but very chic. It looks as if its ready for off road or a night on the town. I love the room in the back...I show dogs, and there is plenty of room for my equipment and dogs. It has a very smooth ride and best thing is when and if I go off road the 4x4 is amazing. I'm never worried about getting stuck...it not only gets the traction but has the torque to pull me out. I also love the comfort of the seats. Makes those long drives to show much easier. I like the cosmetic roof racks, side steps and the contrast to the sleek body. For an SUV, it gets great gas mileage. Doesn't require a ton of maintenance. I swear it'll go forever with just the basics. I should know. I've put a good 6,000 miles on it in just two weeks time. I also like the four door. I have a family, and we all fit...all five of us. Well eight if you count the dogs...I love that it can pull a medium trailer if needed. Now the only things I don't like are the small leg space in the backseat and the fact that the cargo area seems so high up. I need a ramp to load my dogs...but at least there's space for it. Despite its few flaws, and I do mean just two flaws, I'm hooked and will always look for another Nissan Xterra when this one finally gives up many more years from now.
