Is Nissan giving in to traditional SUV marketing while still trying to maintain a tough guy image? Some of the changes are welcome, but that front end..... I am not so sure it NEEDS a facelift.

I would think that Nissan is going to do the same thing that they did with the Pathy (and there is evidence that it's going down that road already) -- they started out with a 'back to basics' SUV and now, only 2 years later, it is becoming more and more soccer-mom like. Wait till 2004, when the Xterra comes standard with leather seats and wood trim and blah blah blah ... :o
