My Nissan Xterra is the car I had been wanting for a very long time and for three years was just about perfect. This car was everything I wanted, drove great, looked extremely cool, could go off road as well as on, tons of storage space, great sound system. It was extremely fun to drive and the gas mileage wasn't terrible for a bigger SUV. Unfortunately the problem came at about 105,000 miles when my timing belt broke and destroyed my engine. I should have headed the warnings to check it based on mileage, but since the car was driving great didn't even think about doing it. I took the car into get fixed, but after about $1100 of work it still didn't perform very well and was just waiting to die. So in summary great vehicle, but make sure you get the timing belt changed before the mileage recommends.
