I'm not sure about NEXUS, but the benefit over a passport is that if you're driving to Canada, you only need your driver's license. Which, since you're driving, you probably keep on you at all times anyway. Less chance of forgetting and one less thing to carry.

Also, having traveled to Canada quite a bit while growing up in the pre-9/11 days, I just have a visceral reaction against having to take my passport to travel there.
