Long time viewer, first time poster (I believe the first of your videos I saw was the one from the lava trails) and the reason why I was atracted to your channel at first WAS the subaru. I had just bought an SH Forester myself and I wanted to do some work on it and the stuff you did really appealed to me. Compared to everyone else on youtube who does overlanding with subarus yours was a really modest look, a small lift, off-road tires, a roof rack, and a bull bar. Contrast that with people who buy a forester and spend a small fortune turning it into an off road tank to the point it's almost unrecognizable, that really made you stand out from the pack. At least to me. The Forester will be missed for certain, but your channel will remain a steady watch for me. I've been impressed by the beauty of the places you manage to find and film for use, and with your resourcefulness with DIY projects on the cheap. Keep it up and I foresee many good things happening to that Frontier.

[@softroadingthewest]

Thanks for being a long-time viewer, much appreciated! The goal here will be for a similarly modest build, just enough to ensure I can safely get to where I want to go and get home again. :-)

[@johnsora2425]

Lifetime subaru driver and currently have offroad moded 09 Foz since new. On trip to Colorado rented a frontier pro-4x. Took it up TFL's Goldmine Hill and Cliffhanger 2.0 and then all over the jeep trails above Montezuma. It was the most fun I've had off road. First time truly needed a locker. On next business trip in Spokane ended up with a Frontier SV. Took it to OHV Park where Everyman Driver films his offroad segments. Even basic SV model with open diffs was great off road, but the pro-4x was a beast. Sorry subaru, but the new wilderness does not cut it. Holding out for next gen 4runner. PS if you want to rent a truck it is expensive, but they usually have a bunch. Rent a mid size and ask if they have any trucks you could swap to.

[@kylesaab]

I was a subie master tech. I bought a 2019 Frontier, I just love that it was a 5 speed transmission not a 9speed also not direct fuel injection. Just a basic truck. I love it. First time not driving a Subaru in 15 years.

[@cedarspaw4180]

A few months ago someone gave me a 2007 Forrester that has a bad head gasket (shocking, I know). I came across your channel when I was researching forresters on YT. This is the first time I heard the terms "overlanding" and "softroading", and I am ever so greatful. My wife is fighting stage 4 melanoma and overlanding is a great way to lift my kids' spirits and remind them that though there is suffering, there is still plenty of beauty to experience in the world. Now I'm looking for a new 4x4 rig and have also been looking at the frontier and xterra and pretty much any other 4x4 I can find for a few grand. Not sure what I will end up with, but I know you'll give me some great ideas for mods. Thanks for your channel and the other channels you've introduced me to. It means more than you know and I look forward to seeing what you do to the frontier.

Cannot tell you how excited I am about this. I have long felt the Frontier is vastly underrated and under appreciated. It’s the perfect rig for you. I truly thought you would go with a truck. The versatility is unmatched. Very few people are creating content about the frontier and it’s going to be refreshing seeing his new content for you. I cannot wait to see where it takes you!

Bottom line for me is that you are a great content creator and I love your channel for its story telling, filmmaking and images. You’re outdoor approach is great and you aren’t shelling over the top $100,000 rig suggestions. I like that you’re a diy kind of guy and make practical choices that are functional and simply help you get to your destination. For me- your channel has always been way more about you than the Forester.

[@alexanderweaver4838]

Don, I like your choice. I owned two Nissan Frontier pick ups, the first one in Hawaii and the second in Virginia. They were pretty awesome trucks. Neither truck was a 4X4 but I never experienced any difficulty traveling on logging or back roads. My second one was a crew cab and I loved the comfort it provided. The rear seats can be removed to store an enormous amount of gear and extra clothing. On camping trips I used a tent cot and stretched it across the bed just behind the rear window. I was off the ground and set up and take down was really easy and there was plenty of room left in the truck bed for a table and camp chair. I sometimes stretched a tarp from the roof rack over the bed and used extended tent poles to secure the other two corners. The only gear I set up outside of the truck was a privacy tent with a portable folding toilet; also doubled as a shower using a 5 gallon solar bag. I had a custom made tonneau cover made by a shop that specialized in them. Like you I haven't liked what the manufacturers have done to so many trucks. I loved utilitarian look of older trucks...pick up trucks should look like trucks. Have fun, Don, and I'm excited to see what you have in mind.

[@nickbailey7822]

Great to see you base your decision greatly on what the community needs. No need for more Tacomas lol. You’re similar to us when we chose our vehicle.

[@bryanclark3739]

As a Toyota Tundra owner, I think you made a good choice. I have a 2003 Tundra with 225,000 miles and I wouldn’t sell for what I paid for it in 2004. Nissan’s are very under rated and I think it will fit your overlanding to a tee. Don’t worry about losing any viewers due to changing vehicles. My camping style is quite a bit different than yours, but I’ve been watching your videos since this pandemic started. I have a travel trailer and will park it for a couple of days in one spot and explore the area. I carry enough camping (overlanding) gear for a night or two in case I want to spend the night somewhere. I plan on a trip to eastern Oregon this fall, maybe we’ll cross trails. Keep up the great videos.

[@davidfessel3824]

Donald, I’m a huge fan of your ideology, go with what you have! After a retired from the navy, I became a RVIA certified RV technician. One of the things the fully painted class A’s would do is apply a clear protective film made by 3M on the front. This film would take rock hits and everything else that you can imagine on the highway with little to no damage to the paint. And in most cases the film was invisible because the installer had ended the edge on a crease or seam. I know some wear scratches like a badge but when you’ve installed guard’s everywhere else, why not try to protect the paint as well.

I'm likely going to get out tent camping for my wife and I and into a teardrop camper. That's one of the many ways you can go and it's all ultimately about getting out there and into the woods.

You got a Nav!!! Nissan Navara here in Australia. Good choice. My eldest is looking at Subaru now many thanks to you. Finally convinced him he doesn't need a big rig (usually means much more dollary doos) to get out there. I get around in a 2004 7 str Grand Vitara (Geo Tracker). He has the 2dr soft top. We are often told 'Ya need real 4WD. Get a Prado!' Argh eye roll. We get on top of mountains, cross rivers, done some awful tracks where everything shook loose and hit the beaches in our vehicles. It's about getting out there!!! Tyre upgrade went a long way though. Great to see you back and super looking forward to seeing what you do!! Thanks for the inspiration!!

Went with the frontier over the Tacoma... always the hipster 😉

[@Softroader]

One of the reasons I follow you was not the fact that your rides were done with a Forester but that they were done with an "Softroader" SUV. But, that was just another attractive detail. The beauty of the landscapes, the little tips, the fact that you don't look for difficulty in your rides, exceed in my eyes very largely the choice of the vehicle. I have to be honest; I like off-roading but I like it with vehicles that are relatively close to the production vehicles and that is what initially attracted me. The Frontier (Navara in France and with diesel engines) has a good reputation in my country. No need for big transformations to have fun on the rides. I wish you many good rides and beautiful videos in the near future. Take care of yourself and your family.

Love it, looking forward to seeing another build and I'm glad it's a different truck than you see everywhere. If you took a moped into the back woods I would still watch.

You’ve got the right rig. Don’t let these crawlers get you down. I’ve got an 05 Xterra. Awesome engine. It will go forever!

I went from my Subaru to the SUV version of what you chose! I had grand dreams of huge lifts and 29-30" tires on my Soobie, then skid plates, then a low range swap, then that fancy rear diff lock, then... But instead, I hit the easy button. This came locked, plated and lifted from the factory on 32s with 33s being a total bolt on. Plus a million options to push beyond stock if you ever want. I think you made a great choice! 👍

It's all about the adventure of the outdoors, no matter what vehicle you got. Congratulations and can't wait to see more of your adventures. 😎👍
