I bought a 2010 FJ Auto fully loaded 7 months ago. Couldn't be happier. It is not a sports car. The blind spots are not that big of a deal. Hell my Diesel Silverado has more bind spots. Back seat access can be a pain and the gas milage isn't stellar. I do a lot of mountain driving in all kinds of weather and the FJ is the most sure footed vehicle I have owned and I have owned a lot of SUV's.

I drove the Xterra but did not like the cheap interior and and in general not a Nissan fan.

As for off road driving it is hard to beat.
