MidWest_Surfer's 2002 Nissan Xterra

The Little Yellow Jacket
I hated the Solar Yellow color at first but i have to admit that it has grown on me over time. It's pretty quick for SUV standards. Compared to my old 4Runner the throttle response, power, and takeoff are incredible. Having a 4WD SUV is great and I don't know why but I really like this 4WD better than my last car's.
  • those little driving lights have been replaced with KC Daylighters but I don't have a good picture of as it stands right now

Testimony

Well, i have been a "Christian" since birth, but have only recently been seriously following Him. I grew up in a southern baptist home and family, and went to the old school "Piano-and-Pipe-Organ" sermons every Sunday. I grew up knowing that God loved me, Jesus died for me and all the requisite stories everyone hears in Sunday school. I was never conscious of God's presence in my life, i just went to church and lived a "good" secular life. In the sixth grade my dad (who really wanted me to "get it") helped start a church that has now become one of the fastest growing churches in my area. He told me that they had TV's with PS2's in the lobby for the kids to play before the service started and that immediately piqued my interest, so I decided to go. After going to this church and becoming heavily involved in the music, tech, and youth ministries, I thought I had really turned my life around from being someone who kind of kept God in a box to someone who had it pretty much figured out.
I turned 16 and got my first car, a tank green 1991 Toyota 4Runner V6 4WD, and started modding it with bigger tires, intake, the works, and became a car guy. November of last year was the first time I have ever literally felt God in my life. After coming back from an overnight youth trip on a sunday night my [then] girlfriend broke up with me over facebook because I was "too distant", I stayed up half that night angry and staring at a fire I had going in my back yard. The next morning I was really tired but I thought I'd be fine driving. I proved myself dead wrong when I fell asleep at the wheel going to school and hit the big scoop part a backhoe head on going about 45mph. The impact lifted the back end of my truck off the ground, broke nearly every window in the truck, knocked the engine through the firewall and partially into the cab, broke my dashboard, sliced my radiator literally in half, and actually dented the thick steel scoop on the backhoe. The driver of the backhoe, the cops that showed up, my dad, and the person who saw it happen all told me that I should have died. I should have hit my head on the steering wheel and broken my neck because my head was hanging down at the time of impact and the airbag didn't deploy, or i should have been crushed by the engine that broke through my firewall, or been stabbed by my broken dashboard that broke up at me. However, none of that stuff happened, I should have at least had cuts from the broken glass or had a bruise from the seat belt but I didn't. I was completely and totally unharmed, and at that moment, for the first time, I KNEW that God had a plan for me and was looking out for me. I totally dropped everything and re-thought everything in my life to make sure that it was what I thought God wanted. A few weeks later I got my second car, a solar yellow 2002 Nissan Xterra. I've been working on it for a while now and have actually gotten more mods on it than on my 4Runner, go figure. I have been told to never place a period where God has placed a comma because God is still working so I guess I'll end it like this, I can't wait to see what God has planned for me yet,
