Anyone here own an Xterra? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

SoCal-s130 · 07-16-2009, 02:15 PM

Looking into buying one of these bad boys here and my main concern was if it is capable of towing a car? It will most likely be an 03 or an 04 6 cylinder of course. I have heard that is capable of towing but then someone had told me their shit over heated towing some sea doos. Set me straight.

my uncle would tow 2 jet skis, and sometimes boats up north and never overheated. I personally don't own one but i woould get one, those things are bad ass

I think they have a built in first aid kit for extreme sporting.

*silviaguy240* · 07-16-2009, 04:28 PM

buddy has one, seems like he said for small light cars its ok, but for a regular sized car probably like our 240s it sucks balls. and he has a v6 5spd. i dont think hes had any overheating problems but he gets real shitty gas mileage when towing and regular isnt that great either.

I bought one new in '03 I didnt mind it at all, felt a little low on power. Otherwise I had zero problems with it.

Get the supercharged 5-spd if you do get one.
All the others are very underpowered.

Hey man your super!.

kyle i think there is a tow package, get that.

JoeC1982 · 07-16-2009, 11:50 PM

get a Pathfinder/QX4 with the VQ35 instead, the VG33 is underpowered and has more problems.

*punn303* · 07-17-2009, 01:02 AM

i got an 02 ka24de powered xterra. engine too small for the weight, gear ratio sucks. I have towed my 240 from LA to SD without any problems, just a slow ride.

HyperTek · 07-17-2009, 01:30 AM

wow some of those come with KA?

i might get a 97 blazer from my pops.. i know it aint much, but it will be a good daily beater, 4.3 v6 or somethin lol

*Ceepo* · 07-17-2009, 01:43 AM

my brother had a 2003 supercharged xterra, was pretty sweet, not the greatest power but im sure it "Could" tow a car...

240creep · 07-17-2009, 04:26 AM
