No, it makes 286. 14lbs less and its a much smaller and far more efficient engine.

agreed it is much smaller and efficient that is its purpose. are all xterra 4 wheel drive? if so there is going to be a lot of drivetrain loss. also, the 318 and 360 magnums are outdated and made when gas was cheap. but i can tell you for sure that a 318 will outpull that xterra no problem and thats what these trucks were made for really pullin.

Well no ****, not only is it not geared for towing, it has less powerful motor.

i agreed in post #39 that newer, smaller engines can make more power stock and in that you had a point. i have no idea where you are going with this. obviously you can't stand it when people disagree with you but what is odd is your still frustrated when they agree.

it just makes you seem frustrated when you reply to a large majority of posts with a curse word and try to talk down to whoever else is posting. just try to tone it down a bit that's all.

So when someone says "Well ****, its raining!" it's ok, but when someone says "no **** Sherlock" its not?

Aren't double standards great?

Go take a look at all the posts I've ever made. You'll find that the vast majority of them involve no swearing. Also, keep in mind that it is impossible to convey tone through the interwebs.

i do not have the time nor desire to look through 800 posts. and no, you cannot convey tone over internets unless u have a mic and i never said you did. but the way you write makes it come off that way. this is way off topic (partially my fault) so i am just going to stick with engine commentary now.
