Smooth and durable with a proven design.

Somewhere in the Nissan Pickup line is a truck for almost everyone. Without being the fastest, cheapest or flashiest trucks around, the Nissans are, without exception, well-suited to handle whatever chores you may assign to them. And they just may be the best looking, to boot.

The SE, which has the XE?s Value Package included in its basic specification, benefits most from two option groups - the Power Package (power windows and door locks) and the Sport Package (primarily alloy wheels and a sunroof, plus 31-in x 10-in. tires and a limited-slip differential on 4x4 versions). So equipped, the SE is an excellent choice for all-around use.

The reason for the emphasis on options is simple: Even the high-level Nissans, such as the SE, need at least a few extras to make them more efficient for work or more comfortable for play. Also, from years of experience, Nissan understands that a good many trucks wind up as all-around transportation.

Beyond practical considerations, there?s little to do except look at the various equipment levels, plus individual and package options. Some represent genuine good value: The XE Value Truck package, for example, includes air conditioning, a sound system, chrome trim and a tachometer. The Convenience package adds a tilt steering wheel, power outside rearview mirrors and a host of smaller features.

And even with 800 lb. of sandbags tucked down in its bed, our test truck hauled along cheerfully.

Other, more practical matters to consider when choosing a Nissan are construction details. Long Bed and 4WD models have additional reinforcement for their steel ladder-type chassis, a good feature to have in times of heavy loading or off-road stress. All Nissan Pickup beds are double-walled for strength, and the top-of-the-line SE V6 4x4s have standard plastic bedliners.

All-day trips in a compact pickup can be tiring, but we found our test truck relatively comfortable. In this regard, the Nissans come closer than most small trucks to being acceptable. They are, of course, equipment-sensitive: You will want the bucket seats if you?re required to spend much time inside. A good sound system - such as the AM/FM stereo with cassette player supplied with our test SE - helps, too.

On or off the highway, Nissan Pickups are pleasant to drive. The power steering combines low effort with good feel, the ride is firm but not unpleasant (better with a load in the bed than when empty, and somewhat bouncy off-road), and handling is typical for pickups. The wide turning circle of 4WD models does require some adjustment for drivers that are unfamiliar with that breed.

In all cases, calling for 4WD on the other form also brings along power steering and rear-wheel anti-lock brakes.

Manual hub engagement is a leftover from an earlier age in 4WD technology, and we expect to see it disappear entirely before long. If you want 4WD, do yourself a favor and get a setup that includes auto-locking hubs.

The larger engine is also best for use in 4-wheel-drive models. Nissan, like most rivals, uses an on-demand system that allows the driver to engage 4WD while the truck is moving - shift on the fly, as they say. The V6 versions are fitted with automatic locking front hubs, compared with 4-cylinder models that require the driver to get out and engage the front hubs manually before going off-road.

If trailer-towing is on the menu, the V6 is a must. Small trailers are within the 4-cylinder?s abilities, but performance with a load nearing the 3500-lb. maximum will be marginal. The V6 is better, but here, too, the ratings are optimistic. Nissan claims a 5000-lb. maximum trailer capacity (as well as a 2000-lb. payload rating) for the V6 5-speed Long Bed version, but progress with the truck so heavily laden will be slow indeed.

Long Bed Standard and SE King Cab versions get a 3.0-liter single overhead-cam V6, with a choice of 5-speed manual transmission (standard) or a 4-speed over-drive automatic. The V6 is essentially a passenger-car engine, and is recommended more for its refinement than for its extra power. It?s a quiet engine that never feels strained, one of the best in the business in terms of smoothness and all-around driveability.

   the utility combination, giving away some smoothness and power in return for reliability and low cost.

Actual rating will vary with options, driving conditions, habits and vehicle condition.  City MPG: 17
