17. Nissan Xterra
When everybody was buying pseudo-off-roaders and comfortable SUV models, Nissan was offering a true all-terrain model in the form of the Xterra. This rugged SUV debuted in the late ’90s and Nissan offered it until 2015.
The Xterra didn’t come with attractive looks or an especially long list of standard features. Still, it provided great off-road usability, as well as affordable and dependable transportation for those customers who liked to use their SUVs in the mud and snow.
