Too bad they didn't arch the roof above the passenger compartment on the Pathfinder as they did on the Armada. Still, a nice looking truck.

Adequate, though I don't see either one making any significant inroads against both japanese and American offerings - thankfully.

They look OK, not great, but OK. I have to say, I have not been a fan of any of Nissans newly styled vehicles as of late. Armada, Quest, Maxima, etc. I don't care for any of them. Although the new Frontier is decent.

**confused** I thought the Xterra was the SUV version of the Frontier? :huh: Ah well- I don't really keep up with Nissan.

YA, but they are like 250+ HP where as GM's new trucks are 220. I also like the styling of the Frontier. I was surprised though about the move away from uni-body for the Pathfinder. But, I guess they have the Murano now. So where does that leave the Xterra?

The Frontier looks much better, IMHO, than the Titan, and the 250+ hp 4.0L is strong, hopefully enough motivation alongside a possible Hemi Dakota, to get that 3.5 T into the Colorado and Canyon sooner.

I have a feeling, though, that we'll have to wait an extra year after the H3. I think that Nissan't detuning strategy is better than GM's exclusive-launch/trickle-down strategy.
