Which Xterra is the Best?
We like virtually every 2015 Nissan Xterra model, but if your main interest is in a true off-roader, we recommend that you steer toward the Wrangler instead. If you want a distinctive, youthful and affordable SUV, we say, go for the Xterra's base X 4x4 model. We recommend bumping up to the S or PRO-4X in which the 6-speed manual is available. Manual transmissions are rare in American vehicles these days -- especially in SUVs. But we think the manual really brings the Xterra alive. Find a Nissan Xterra for sale
