Saw some dirt, saw some mud, saw some sheep.

Only drove over 2 of those 3 things.


Baaaaaa

Just a humble dirt road around a man made reservoir, about a 20 minute drive from my house.

Finally, a proper sheeppost !

@jb-boin hey, I've been busy/sick. Cut a shepherd a break will ya? On the plus side, we're pretty sure it's not covid, at least in part because the test results haven't been returned yet.

Poor sheep

I am super into the idea of getting an Xterra, but it seems like some have major issues? Any ideas about what you'd put forward as a buyers guide?

@alfalfa I want to know where there is dirt 20 minutes away.

The big issue is the Strawberry Milkshake of Death. Faulty trans cooler/radiator leaks coolant into the transmission and kills it. You want to make sure it's already been taken care of with a new radiator or an external trans cooler, or get a manual model. Otherwise just be sure to check the fluids before you buy and make sure they look good, then keep an eye on it until you can do a preventative fix

20 minutes away fromme. I live up in Ogden now, this was at Willard Bay.

[HammerheadFistpunch]

@alfalfa I did not know you moved to Ogden. That makes a lot more sense.

@carsoffortlangley my next door neighbor has 2 Xterras now and at one point had 3. Like @Alfalfa said the main issue with them is the automatic transmissions. The one he no longer has is had an auto that was going out (he sold it to someone else it town that swapped in a junkyard trans and now I see it driving around). According to my neighbor they still have a really active community around them and are easy to find support for. Checking out one of the owner groups would probably be a good place to start.

I miss Utah so much.
