And design the cushion so that it bridges snugly by fitting in place ala picture puzzle.Damn, I see a Nissan Design job offer in my future

Damn it! Everyone keeps mentioning pics of the cargo area where are these pics?
One question I have about the fold flat seats. Do you loose the foot well area? Or do the folding bottom cushions occupy that? I use that space when on trips to hide stuff from view like cameras and such.

Regaring the 2005 drive train configuration, the interior picture of the 2005 xterra in the nissanusa.com future vehical gallery seems to show some sort of (2WD,AUTO,4LO and 4HI) selector. Also, if you look at the push buttons on the right, it looks like there is a drive train related switch (possbily locker?) Anyway, the picture is not perfectly clear, but you can see it below. What do you folks think? Image link http://www.nissanusa.com/m/cma/v/fuv/fuv_xterra_gal_lg02.html

Damn, can't believe it hasn't been clarified yet... The rear seat cushions fold forward against the back of the front seats, then the seatbacks fold down FLAT behind them. I can't have been the only one to have seen that in a photo or video recently. As for snowstorm's question, we've already noticed that and speculated 2 pages back. Yes, there apparently was the possibility that the X would get the all-mode t-case at one point, and the 4WD selector in that picture does appear to have an extra position that looks just like the 05 Pathfinder w/ an "auto" mode: http://www.nissannews.com/multimedia/nissan2005/pathfinder/colour/10_2005_pathfinder.jpg Remember that there is a picture of the Xterra with a multi-link coil rear suspension in the preview brochure too, so I'm inclined to believe the one you're referring to is of an early prototype too. The all-mode t-case is out of the picture now, here's the current interior: http://www.nissannews.com/multimedia/nissan2005/xterra/colour/13_2005_xterra.jpg Yes, the other picture shows what appears to be a locker switch similar to the Frontier: http://www.nissannews.com/multimedia/nissan2005/frontier_kingcab/colour/08_2005_frontier.jpg Locker is still up in the air, but let's hope we made it clear we want to see it.

With them pushing the Xterra as an 'offroad vehicle,' they'd be crazy not to. I'm thinking it may either be a 'deluxe' option, or something inclusive with the "offroad" version. With the Frontier getting it, though, even if the X doesn't it's only a matter of time before someone tries to do a swap.

Believe it was in the video from the show floor where they interviewed a Japanese Nissan rep (by Edmunds I think). A half-decent (and huge) pic was posted by IraSel too: http://members.aol.com/vnhln/images/xrear.jpg Brent

Let's try pinning this and maybe the newbies will use it instead of starting new "breaking" news on the '05's

Everyone bitches about the removeable seat cushions on the current X, and now the flip-forward ones aren't OK either? What do you want?

They need to be magical, so that they disappear when not needed, and reappear when they are, and all the driver has to say is "MAGICAL SEAT CUSHION I SUMMON THEE"

Now the serious answer. I'm sure Nissan took into account the space between the front seats and the back seats when folded down. Remember too that the new Xterra has more legroom in the rear seat area, which means more room for the seats to fold too. Infact, I believe that's the reason the seats don't fold in the current model...there's nowhere for them to fold to! Oh yeah, there's more legroom up front too!

[/QB] Yeah, you could say that :rolleyes: I was getting more at the point that 3" is quite a bit of space and even with the fat cushions we have now, with 3" the kind of seat pictured in the '05 looks emminently feasable. That's all
