[gallery link="file" ids="2185,2186,2187,2188"] Overview: This week I revisited the Nissan Xterra that I tested two years ago when it had just hit the market. Well back then the 3.3 liter V6 was a 170 hp engine and to make things worse I tested it in mile high Denver, Colorado and 8,000 foot...

[gallery link="file" ids="2197,2198,2199,2200"] Overview: This week I tested the Nissan Sentra Spec V. I have a friend who's in her second Toyota Corolla and she loves the 2000 model as much as she did the ten year old one she replaced. They are such basic cars and low cost to buy and...

[gallery link="file" ids="2191,2192,2193,2194"] Overview: This week I finally was able to drive the newly designed 2002 Nissan Altima. Now I have to tell you I have a soft spot in my heart for the company. In the early 1960's I was one of the brave souls to buy one of those new...

[gallery link="file" ids="2180,2181,2182"] Overview: This week I drove the 2001 Mid-year Nissan Pathfinder 4X4. I hadn't looked at this car since the 1997 model in August 1996. I've always loved to drive these but the fact that they suck up too much gas turns me off. If they can put a man...

[gallery link="file" ids="2175,2176,2177"] Overview: This week we're looking at Nissan's Frontier Supercharged Super Crew Cab 4X4 pickup truck. It's got a 5-speed on the floor like trucks of old. It even has a pull emergency brake that will take you back in time even more. And being supercharged is a nice addition...

[gallery link="file" ids="2171,2172"] Overview: This 2000 Maxima SE 4-door is Nissan's “Flagship”, as well it should be. Look out Louie, we're under full sail and the racing jib is out. This lubber may not have sea legs, but on land it's quite nimble and quick too, Jack. I haven't been in a Maxima...

[gallery link="file" ids="2164,2165,2166"] Overview: This Frontier Crew Cab has a short bed but lots of room for the crew. Isn't that what it's all about? You buy the model that best suits your need. I like this a lot. What was amazing is that young teens seem to take a shine to...

However, when you look at the competition below and you compare it with Jeep Cherokee Limited for example...
