I'm starting to gather options in replacing our aging Ford Explorer fleet and as much as I would like to replace them with new Explorers, the base price on the Fords have jumped significantly.
I'm beginning to look at the Nissan Xterra, and would like to hear opinions on those that have used them as a daily heavy duty service news vehicle. The good, the bad, etc.
I need something that will last at least 7 years of heavy service in a rugged coastal environment, in addition to having the cargo space that is similar to what we have now. The Explorers have been good for us, but I'm open to hear opinions of other vehicle platforms that have worked for you. We purchased a Subaru Forester last year to test it out as a possible replacement option, however I have not been satisfied with its overall performance, economy & rather crampt space.
Thanks as always!
