    Is the Pro 4x Worth it?

    I have a 2012 Pro4x with about 52K miles on it now. Had 33K when I purchased it for $20K. Fantastic vehicle. Drove my previous 1984 Land Cruiser 325K miles and it was a manual. Loved it, but have taken the X all over Moab, Grande Escalante, Death Valley, etc. It is twice the vehicle of the Land...

    A tale of 2 Xterra's

    I have a 2012 Pro4-x automatic that I purchased 1.5 years ago for $20K with 33K miles. It is an incredible car, not a squeek in it. I previously had a 1984 Land Cruiser that I drove 325K miles.

    2012 Xterra Pro 4X build "Tactical X"

    Curious whether you chose a MT or an Automatic. I'm looking at new Xterra's and am not sure which way to go. I owned a 1984 MT Landcruiser for 325K which was a MT. I have heard of some problems with the Xterra MT which is what I would prefer. I also pull a 1400lb. poptop trailer. Any input...

    Xterra Pro 4, Automatic vs. Manual Transmission versus older Land Cruiser 100 series.

    Hello: I am new member. Drove my 1984 Land Cruiser MT about 325K miles and finally donated it it to a non-profit about 10 years ago. Currently have a Subaru Outback which I take off road in Southwest, Death Valley, etc. Looking to purchase a new off road vehicle. Have come down to either a 100...
