Explore the 2008 Nissan Xterra

My most favorite vehicle

Have a new Subaru Outback, but much prefer driving the xterra. Would own a new one, if still in production. Great feeling ride, never any major problems. Replaced a few recall items, but never left stranded anywhere!

One of my favorite cars I've owned

This vehicle has never ever let me down. It has never had an expensive repair. It has never left me stranded. It is super stylish, and I get compliments on it constantly. It handles off road really well. I cannot recommend it enough.

Very Reliable Car.

This car met my all needs, very comfortable and plenty of head and leg room. Enough storage for the everyday use and the weekend get away.

Great car for high school and college

I got this vehicle while I was in college. It was a wonderful vehicle for that time in my life. It is not a good car to put a car seat in because of the way the back doors are designed. Great vehicle overall!

Rugged, Dependable SUV

Rugged SUV that I have used off road, in snow, pulling my boat, carrying 2 kayaks, family, and dogs. Has never let me down. Stable in snow, absorbs road foods and potholes like a champ. Nothing luxurious about it. All business, the business of fun!

Very pleasing to the eye

This Car really meet all of my needs. I’m not really much of a tech guy in vehicles and this car was just for me and it is an SUV perfect for my person preference. Sitting high up in comfortable adjustable seats was a dream with that beefy 4.0 V6 under the hood I couldn’t ask for more

Most reliable car I have own out of 3

Multiple outlets and very updated sound system clear quality, rides smooth, it also bumps heavy subwoofer under driver seat hits. Never had any back seat passenger complain about leg room very spacious.
