I'm driving my third Xterra. Stock Xterras are not going to bottom out on City potholes unless you have severely overloaded the Xterra or you have a major suspension problem.

Soooo u sleep with the door open?

A regear can solve that hill issue even on the highway and you can throw on bigger tires or even titan swap it.

How’s those door hinges

Great video, thanks 🙏

Hi Chris, what are you getting for MPG in Town? I have a 2010 Nissan Xterra off road, and the mpg is bad. Any input would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks for the review. Could you clarify why the vehicle has issues once going through potholes in the city? If it gets 9/10 for off road conditions, shouldn’t a pothole be a smooth ride for this? I know you said something about leaf springs but I’m not sure if this issue is for you only or if it is for every xterra model or if it is due to heavy stuff you carry around?

Do you ever overnight in places like Walmart or Cracker Barrel in your rooftop tent?

The frame of Xterra doesn't rust out like a Toyota's

Uh. Uhm. Uhm uh. Uh uh uhm and so uhm uh uhm Sheesh. Tiring

I sold my 2012 Xterra Pro-4X at 135,000 miles. I bought a 2021 ram rebel because I wanted a truck for hauling and home projects while keeping my off-road capabilities. While I really like my truck, I really miss my Xterra. I had zero issues with it. I put a cold air intake on it, which increased its power and gas mileage. I also had white knuckle rock sliders, which saved me some damage a few times. And I updated the headlights and fog lights to LED. It impressed everyone that with me snowboarding / adventuring/ camping. If I still had it, I would likely have upgraded the exhaust next for power and gas mileage. My only major complaint was sleeping in it as it was a little too short for me in the back .

The rear locker is only available when it's in 4lo but it does help when it is used.

I don't have an issue with my Xterra going up hills but mine is a 6 speed manual.

So you have not suffer the strawberry milk shake of dead yet?

Great video! Not many xterras for sale up here in Canada. Still holding out to find one and throw a RTT on it. Do you know how much your RTT weighs and it's just bolted to the stock Cross bars?

Take the kaleidoscope ladder into another realm.

Crazy total experience. Make a video summing up the entire year!

Um um um um um um um um um um um um um um um

Stop saying"um" so much I couldn't even get through your whole video so annoying -- nevermind me even subscribing I don't think so.

Thanks 🇨🇦

That fridge is huge, lol.

So nice😊

Great Review Man. Very Informative. Yes Sir, I LOVE M 2011 Xterra. Super Awesome. I

I love that vehicle so much...my dream is to get one....

I would like to know the interior height when opened, their website is lacking that info, thanks

I have a Subaru Forester, do you need a off road vehicle like a keep to get to the camp grounds?

How was the trail to get to the campsite. I live on Oahu and would love to know if it is difficult or not?

did u rent the jeep?

I just fitted a XL on my van. all i have to say is disappointing . how one person is expected to complete the task without a large step ladder and much gnashing of teeth is beyond me. I think the closing of the product is a big failure. Who wants to climb on the windscreen of a car. so a van at 6 feet is really tricky. I design methods of finishing plastic products. If I had left a task as tricky as closing the tent to my company I would be sacked. some ratchet straps would aid the process, removable once locked in. I will be modifying mine to make it work. If roof nest want to contact me for the solution, I will be happy to help........ lol

Do not buy the Adventure XL model. It leaks and Roofnest doesn't stand by their product. They also delete all of their negative reviews on their website and Facebook page. What a horrible company. At first they said they'd send me a new roof clam shell, then they said after they realized it was slightly used when I bought it, to put some jb weld on it and I was on my own even though it was less than a year old. . (I was upfront with their customer service from the start that I had bought it slightly used). I patched one leak, and a week later another spot started leaking. No damage to the outer shell, it's just a poor design that traps water in the roof rack rails.

Man, just now watching this. You probably walked right past my barber shop in Downtown Laurel. Wish I had caught this sooner. Been binging overlanding videos. I'd love to know where that site was at De Soto, thinking about heading out there this weekend. Also, Natchez is pronounced like matches. My wife and I love it out there. Glad I found this video, gonna watch some more. Thanks for sharing!

Good to see you still exploring. Keep us posted !

Ah, um, ah, um, um, ah, um.....

Loving the content. Also your Xterra seems like a fantastic overland rig. Thanks for sharing!

Good information, thanks!

Welcome back. Nice wheels! 👍👍

Hey I'm surprised u returned to make overlanding content! I was here for the xterra ideas... Now u have a jeep. Curious to know how much u sold the xterra for? With the used car market so high, I'm assuming u probably didn't lose much.

Just stopped by to wish you well. Best regards. Thanks again.

Badass dude! I put a 2 inch lift in mine and the extra clearance is perfect

Thanks for the video. Do you have a link for the backrest you use up-top in the tent? I have a 2006 xterra off road with the same roofness sparrow up top. Same color as well haha.

Thanks for the real word demo of the Sparrow RTT. Going to check out your channel to see if you cover how you've hooked up your solar panel. Also, your voice is not boring :-)

Awesome video!

It seems you could shorten that entire platform and give more head room. You have a lot of wasted space underneath.

Thank you for the excellent review! Concise and well-thought-out. I also appreciated you mentioning the issues you had along with how you may have contributed to them.

Ummmm

i have a 2006 with the 4.0, like the truck, but not the design of the engine. the 2nd gen came right out of the box with a radiator/trans fluid problem. the shop wanted $300 just for labor to change the plugs because the intake needs to be removed, same with the pcv valve, the knock sensor also is inside the top end and intake and plenum need to come off, and to top that off the water pump is internal, inside the timing cover, driving by the timing chain. this one has about 178000 on the clock and burns alot of oil, but gonna run it till it wont run no more and put a remanufactured engine in er and go some more

Would you recommend this for campers who are not overlanders, like who just camo state parks 4 times a year? ..also would you ever consider doing gear reviews?

Best deal from frontier/xterra pro4x is the rear diff' axle locker . The axle is also basically a Dana 44 (m226). Jeep Rubicons come with that set up which are alot more expensive. Just make sure to keep the breather vent on that axle from seizing shut because them wheel seals will blow and the dealer basically replaces the entire axle which is expensive. I know a shop that can replace just the seals but they made their own tool for doing that job.

there is no rack on the roofnest sparrow. How did you attach a solar pannel on it?
