2024 Toyota Tacoma VS 2024 Nissan Frontier! Which Truck Is Better?

[@meme-bj1pe]

It is a solid and reliable truck that doesn't have as much as the superfluous technology that will soon break in most new vehicles. I also really like the old school boxy look.

I’d take the frontier any day. In the long term the v6 is proven reliability and will last longer than even a Toyota turbo four. You can also find it far below sticker at some dealerships. I also prefer the fully physical layout of the frontiers controls while still having a large infotainment screen and the heavier more solid feeling hydraulic steering.

My '23 had a spray-in bedliner with all the aux plugs and adjustable tie down rails all from the factory.

[@nvpoolshooter]

Why use a Frontier that's more of a base model than a model more optioned out? For example. Truck beds. The Tacoma has a plastic bed. Yeah, plastic. The Frontier also comes with a spray on bed liner and Nissan's track system, which is excellent. Steering? Nissan stayed with the traditional hydraulic steering, which gives the driver a better, more realistic steering feel between the steering wheel and front wheels. The Tacoma uses electric steering which is very light. The driver doesn't have the same feel between the steering wheel and front wheels as with traditional hydraulic steering. Nothing show stopping for either system. For me personally, two show stoppers for the Tacoma. 1) the 4-banger on steroids (turbo) and the Tesla like interior with the 'iPad' sticking up out of the dash. No thanks. Nissan's truck is more traditional in many respects and will appeal more to the traditional truck buyer looking in the midsized segment.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

This video shows the Pro4X vs TRD Sport. Very comparable trims. The Pro4X is literally the top of the line for the Frontier and very on par in price to the TRD Sport. Also it's hard to be picky with which trucks to use. These were the only ones on the lots. The fact that I even had a chance to film a PRo4X with a new Tacoma is hard to even do. I do prefer the hydraulic steering, but it's just very heavy in slow speeds on the Nissan. Makes it a bit annoying off road. Both have good things to offer and the Nissan is more simple. Tacoma is more modern. So both will appeal to different buyers.

[@nvpoolshooter]

@@BrosFOURRSpeedI guess you can't be picky. Have to use what's available I guess. Your Pro 4X was not the fully optioned out model. The bed I mentioned and yours did not have the premium Fender audio system. Another thing missing on the new Tacoma is under the hood insulation. Cheap! That's not good for noise insulation or the hood paint. How long will the paint last taking all that heat?

[@Ksass23]

Yep, agreed. Bad comparison. Maybe the top of line trim but didn’t have the top packages😅😅

Nice video. Two weeks ago I test drove both of these vehicles and ended up buying the Pro 4X after the drives. Totally loaded with features and drives great. Comfortable and easy to enter and exit and sit as a person over 6' tall. Pro 4X was a better value and I actually had several to choose from on the lot at a good price. If you're on the fence, just test drive them both and see what you think (if you can find a 4th gen Tacoma locally).

Such as "I love the sound of the rescue chopper", means "I love the fact that the rescue chopper has arrived" more than it means they love the literal "sound". It should be assumed that those who "love the sound" of the V6 would also catagorize themselves as those who love the operative qualities of the V6.

I considered both and ended up buying the 2024 Frontier. The major issue was the motor as I want it to tow a small travel trailer from time to time and I wanted adequate power without a turbo. The V6 with 9 speed tranny is very smooth and delivers good power and I won't have to worry about potential turbo maintenance issue during the life of the vehicle. This was a tough choice, though, because I really wanted the Toyota. I tried every way possible to make it my choice but just couldn't get over the 4 cylinder turbo engine with a towing requirement. I suppose if I were just looking for a car with a bed, I would be driving the Tacoma but it wouldn't be because it was a better truck, it would be because I wanted a Toyota.

Well Toyota is number one in reliability, Nissan isn't in the top 5..

​@@BrosFOURRSpeedthe Frontier and Tacoma have been virtually tied in reliability over the last decade. It seems like you're generalizing Nissan vs Toyota.

Im a die hard Toyota since the 70's and happen to own a 2022 Taco SR5 2WD. I'm about to purchase a 4WD midsize truck, and it will be a NISSAN Pro 4X

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Oh wow! Is the V6 the reason?

[@rockkstah2550]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed it’s because it’s natural aspirated V6 just like my 2022 2WD Taco. When I purchased the Taco in 2022 the dealer lot ran out of 4WD and it was during the middle of the supply chain, at the same time I had just sold my 2003 4Runner and needed a vehicle. The dealership back then told me that the wait time was between 2 to 5 month for a 4WD. Catch 22 kind a situation.

[@j3dimindtrix168]

The Nissan drivers in the comments are trying too hard man... reliability it's the Tacoma and it's not even close... Resale is not even in the same universe. The only place the Nissan wins is price and that's because they lose all value once rolled off the lot. I'm taking a Colorado and maybe even a Ranger over the Nissan. I guess congratulations even being compared to a Tacoma but the Tacoma will always be king of the midsize unless Toyota decides to ruin their brand and stop making reliable vehicles for some odd reason. They won't.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Both are great options! But yeah, I can't wait for my tacoma!

[@corradettimotorsports360]

I drive a 2023 Tundra SR, in my experience (previously owned a 2019 Tacoma TRD Pro) Toyota's dependability and quality are long gone - From an off road POV The Nissan is more functional with the tow hook locations and proper skid plates, the new Tacoma (at least on the TRD Off Road) they seem to skimp out on armor and poor tow hook location and size. I do not like the interior on the new Tacoma, its not intuitive for the instrumentation and the center console looks cheap IMO, If you're sticking with Toyota, move up to the Tundra, you get a Twin Turbo V6, much more useful interior and better carrying capacity for not too much more (if any at all)

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

The Nissan also sits so much lower, so it's not ideal for offroading stock for stock with the Tacoma. But I would disagree that Toyota dependability and reliability are gone, far from it.. I have zero need for a fullsize, as there are a lot of others who wouldn't want a full size either, so that's a personal preference! I'll be getting the 4th gen and I'll make tons of content on it and see what it's like!
