Nissan Xterra Or Toyota Highlander by Rusty09(m): 2:43pm On Jan 21, 2010 |
House Please, i need your opinions. Would you rather go for an Xterra or a Highlander? And pls put away ur bias for toyota brand and think in terms of performance, spare parts, fuel consumption and general maintenance, Thanks, ![]() |
Re: Nissan Xterra Or Toyota Highlander by Fhemmmy: 2:48pm On Jan 21, 2010 |
Without bias, cos i have no loyalty to any brand of car: I will chose Highlander for the following reasons: 1. It look good 2. It has good second value, so when u tired of it and wanna drive something else, you will be sure to sell it for good money 3. It is cheaper to maintain in Nigeria, cos it is a Toyota product and i think Nigerian mechanics are good at anything toyota 4. Parts are readily available and made it cheaper to fix. 5. Performance is not bat all. Just my 2 cents |

Rusty09: Both cars are similar yet different. Depending on what you will be using it for. The Xtrarra being design on a solid frame is much stronger and rugged than highlander but the ride is not as smooth in comparison. The highlander will think twice before embarking of very serious unforgiven terrains. Yet its very very smooth riding. Its just like a Camry you know. So decide on what you will need it for and pick one. Good luck |

@ Kunle-A . . . Thanks for your input bro, but u know that on naija roads, everyday is almost a new terrain. But on the flidside, i will be moving to Ajah soon and i work in ikoyi and i heard a jeep needed in that zone. Hence my dilemma. . . |
Re: Nissan Xterra Or Toyota Highlander by johnie: 6:37pm On Jan 21, 2010 |
Rusty, Considering the area (Ajah) you intend to move to, I would suggest you go for the Xterra. Like Kunle-A said, the Xterra has a strong frame that can withstand the terrain if you have to go off-road (I.e on the waterfront) to beat traffic. The most important I would give you in that respect, if you intend to go off-road, is that you MAKE SURE WHICHEVER YOU SETTLE FOR HAS AUXLLIARY GEAR!!! Many people assume that once a car is a 4x4 it can travel over such terrain. Many 4x4s sink in the sands along the waterfront, between Oniru Estate and Lekki Phase 1 (Ocean Side), and between Lekki Phase 1 (Ocean Side) and second round about. With a good 4x4 that has auxiliary gear you can conveniently drive through Oniru Estate, Phase 1 (Ocean Side), along Maiyegun Beach, through Alpha Beach, through Lafiaji-Okun Ajah to come out at Abraham Adesanya Estate along the main road. You must also have 'liver' sha o. This is because not many cars travel that route (but this may be its just because of the terrain). |
