I drove my 2005 Xterra Off-Road on the snow for the first time. It handled well on powder and ice too. I've had it for three weeks and so far there have been no problems.

Sorry about that. This should work now...

Looking good! Keep having fun with your truck and keep posting pics. Good to have an '05 on the board. :D

With that perspective it almost looks like the older models (not a bad thing).

Honestly I had no intention of it. I just heard the new models were out and thought I'd drop by to see what it looked like. I wasn't totally impressed with the looks, but after one drive... Plus the old truck was getting up there in miles and needed some work (new exhaust, rear brakes, etc.), and we're driving all the way to Martha's Vineyard in August, and then we're dragging a trailer all the way back to San Diego. Dragging a trailer over the Colorado mountains with the old engine is NOT a fun thing to do!
