I just noticed that the new xterra (2002) have a supercharged v6 engine... I don't like suvs but would love to try out that engine...Is it in any other Nissans?

Supercharged XTera engine is weak. The supercharged aspect is more marketing hype then functionality. Stick with a naturally aspirated SUV - no need to worry about a supercharger.

Anything supercharged with less than 300 hp is pathetic. (The Frontier comes with a super powerful 210hp SC'ed engine)

I kinda laugh everytime I see those billboards or ads for the new 210HP supercharged Xterra.
I mean, come on how is 210HP V6 anything to brag about, and that is after being supercharged???

Something that I do think is cool is in the new MotorTrend there is a 400HP twin turbo Chevy Blazer.

Now, that is cool.
