( http://www.TFLcar.com ) The 2012 Nissan Xterra is the last of the breed of the old school body on frame very off-road worthy SUV's. For 2012 it carries on mostly unchanged with a 4.0-liter V6 producing 261 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 281 pound-feet of torque at 4,000 rpm. We recently had the chance to drive and test the 2012 Xterra off-road and this is a Fast Lane Car off-road Fast Take review.
