The Nissan Xterra maintains its steady course on the road and off, as a popular SUV that can do it all and then some, with a fold-flat cargo area that's rugged and easy to clean, and built-in channels on the floor with 10 hooks or eyelets to tie things down. Side-impact airbags in front and full length airbag curtains were added last year as standard equipment and, for 2010, most versions come with more standard conveniences. The fabric upholstery is attractive and rugged, and there are plenty of cubbies. The Nissan Xterra is user friendly, has a comfortable ride for a truck, and wears well. In 4WD it achieves 15 mpg city and 20 mpg highway, using an exceptional 4.0-liter V6 engine and smooth five-speed automatic transmission.
