Up for sale is my former daily driver 2006 Nissan Xterra 4x4 v6 automatic with 140xxx miles as of 2/13/2014

The VIN is 5N1AN08W06C526520

Grey interior, Red Brawn exterior. 


The carfax on this vehicle is perfect, no crashes or impacts, all maintenance has been done on schedule at either a Nissan Dealership or a local certified mechanic. I am the 3rd owner of this truck, and it still drives like it is brand new. 

Originally this truck was from Ohio but for the last three years it has been in Florida. When I purchased it, I took the time to sand/prime/paint the frame as a preventative measure. The body has absolutely NO rust. A recent inspection checked out the cooling system and transmission and OK'ed it, but i did the bypass anyway (most common issue on this truck.) It already had the fuel sender unit replaced under recall. 

This truck has been outfitted with rancho coil and leaf springs and bilstein shocks to improve the ride and lift it approximately 2"

It has 5 255/85r16 bfgoodrich mud terrain KM2 tires that have 16k miles on them, last time they were rotated (1k miles ago) they were all wearing perfectly although you can definitely hear the MT "hum."

I also upgraded the sound system to a JVC head unit with USB, AUX and Bluetooth capability and added the steering wheel controls. 

The truck is in great shape mechanically and aesthetically. It has a few minor scratches and dings but nothing bad. It does not have any rattles, whines, leaks or clunks.

The cloth interior is in very good shape, there are no tears or stains. Some of the plastic has been scuffed in the trunk, and rear console from carrying gear/supplies around.

Nissan Xterra's fate hangs in the balance

Sat, 21 Sep 2013

The Nissan Xterra might not be long for this world, according to a report from Edmunds. The rugged SUV, which has always been a bit more of a hardcore, purpose-built vehicle than the rest of the Nissan SUV range. But it has also suffered from slowing sales, low fuel economy relative to the competition and general neglect, as Nissan has focused on other offerings in its range.
"There are plans to replace it, there are always plans, (but) I am not sure it will happen. I would say in the next six months to a year," Pierre Loing, vice president of product planning for Nissan Americas told Edmunds. Part of the problem, he added, was that the Xterra is a US-only vehicle, which makes it a hard sell in a world where automakers are increasingly depending on global cars.
Besides the economic forces working against the Xterra, it's just a vehicle that hasn't been a huge sales success of late. Customers are more conscious of fuel economy and a body-on-frame SUV that only nets 16 miles per gallon just isn't good enough; arguably why Nissan barely sold 17,000 units last year. We can hold out hope, as the Xterra remains a fun off-roader that we'd hate to see go, but unless Nissan finds a business case or some global partners, this is a vehicle that is on its last leg.

Watch Nissan's autonomous Leaf in action

Sun, 06 Oct 2013

Getting its semi-autonomous Leaf legalized in Japan was just the first step. Now, Nissan is giving demonstrations of what its fully autonomous car is capable of at this year's Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies (CEATEC) show - Japan's equivalent to America's Consumer Electronics Show. To show off the possibilities of its technologies, Nissan had an oval track set up at the show giving rides in an autonomous Leaf to the media. Even Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn and Toyota CEO Akio Toyodo caught a ride.
Nissan has since released a couple videos of its CEATEC demos, with one designed to look like a news report. In this video, you can watch the car go around the track and navigate intersections and road hazards. The second video shows Ghosn riding in the car, and he hints that Nissan's goal of having an autonomous vehicle in production by 2020 might be more of a worst-case scenario. Watch both videos and read through Nissan's official press release below.
