I bought my SE new in '03 but for some odd reason haven't signed in to any Xterra forum. Forester forum? yes, Tundra forum? yes...I still haven't had any problems w/the Orange Thing (120K mi.) It's got dents from seagulls dropping oysters on it, oxidized trim, and it smells like wet dog, but it runs/sounds like new. It's turning-out to be the best car I've ever had. These forums don't reveal any recurrent/pervasive complaints, either...I guess we dun'good, huh?
