This. It's great when it works, but good Lord if it can fail, it has. The N52 engine is a sweetheart when it works, but I've had to replace nearly every sensor. The manual transmission makes it fun to drive, when it works. The transfer case is haunted, which defaults it to RWD-only (fun!) at the expense of ABS and SRS (not so fun!).
It is now thoroughly redundant with the E91 (fun) and 4Runner (utility), but it lingers because I can't bring myself to take the bath.
