I have the service team doing a full service, 4 brand new tires, brake pads, rotors, spark plugs, drive belts, oil and filter and flushing any fluids as needed. The car will be ready tomorrow or Thursday, then I will inspect the car with a fine tooth comb myself.
Initial impressions are very good, it looked cared for and I noticed it has a practically brand new $300+ head unit installed with a backup camera(which works great!). It’s a Kenwood ddx6705s and I’ve been noticing a lot of users here have similar head units to this one, would be nice if the previous owner was a prior member here but that’s a long shot.
I think I’d be making a good purchase here but anyone else think so?

Sounds good but what's the price? My only hesitation if it's a good financial deal is 4x2. I drove a 2WD Xterra for 11 years and I decided I would get 4WD when I sold it and bought my 4R. But that experience taught me that if your vehicle gets you where you want to go and you don't need 4WD to get there, that's fine. Hope it works out for you.
