RIP, Nissan Xterra - The Car Connection
When the Nissan Xterra debuted in the 2000 model year, it was hard to ignore. Alas, the ray of sunshine known as the Xterra is fading fast. Unlike other Nissan rides, the Xterra has largely been ignored. Then yesterday, Nissan issued a gargantuan, 11,500-word press release. The Xterra didn't even rate a period at the end of its official obituary. ALSO SEE: Nissan Juke Vs. Jeep Renegade: Compare Cars. So, let's take a moment and remember the glory that was the Xterra, a vehicle that turned its back on the champagne excesses of the first dot-com bubble and drove us back to the things that mattered -- the simple things, like surfing, camping, and... Despite its Japanese nameplate, the Xterra promised to remind us what being American was all about. Got any great Nissan Xterra stories. Source: www.thecarconnection.com
