1997 Nissan Pickup XE review from North America
"Almost too reliable to be true"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check engine light came on at about 40,000 miles.
However there is nothing I can detect that is wrong with the engine.
General comments?
I have owned 9 cars before this one and this is by far the best and most reliable vehicle I've ever owned.
It has never been in the shop for any reason.
Nothing has ever gone wrong mechanically or electronically, except for the little "check engine" light.
The clutch still has close to minimum play.
There has never been a leak of any kind from this truck.
The ride and suspension seem, to me, to be just like when I first bought it.
I have always used Pennzoil 10w-30 and Purolator filters.
Great vehicle for $10,350 brand new.
