My other truck was pretty cool as well and was a Nissan Hardbody truck that I also paid around $6K for. It was so basic that there wasn't anything to go wrong. I did end up adding AC for $800 and drove it until '91 with great gas mileage and no issues. These are the types of trucks we need today for no more than $20k. No bells or whistles, just basic and reliable.

[@paulanger2048]

It might not sell very well though. A lot of people that would buy one still have an old Hard body, or a Ranger or something.

The bed to cab distance on mine was 1/2" off and I didn't notice it for about a month. When I put a tool box on it, I noticed it. Athens Nissan tried to fix it and couldn't adjust it enough. They sent it to Athens Paint and Body, and they couldn't fix it either. They wouldn't buy it back and wouldn't fix it. I sold it for a loss and moved on, but I was highly disappointed in Nissan's customer service. As far as I'm concerned, I'll never buy another one. Go with another company.

@@richardmartink679 -- If we did away with dealerships, the process would only change a little. You would still go to a showroom, talk with a commissioned salesperson, and take delivery at that location. There would be a service bay somewhere on site or nearby. The prices would be roughly the same. What would be different is the fact that the sales office would only deal with one company's brands. They would be more knowledgeable about their brands, etc. Warranty work would be simplified because you would only have to convince one bureaucracy that there is a problem. Trade-ins would probably all be sent to auction, and buying a used car would likely not happen at major-brand showrooms. You would probably get more for trade-ins of the same brand, since they would have an interest in convincing you that their brand retains value better then their competitors' brands.

You can get a lower trim for under $40k msrp. Plus most people report that Nissan will negotiate the price under MSRP. I suspect $35-38k is very doable for a crew cab 4x4.

There’s a white Nissan Frontier pickup in the background at the 16:12 point in this video. It has an unfamiliar badge just in front of the A-Pillar and the driver’s side rear view mirror. It looks much like the Chevrolet Silverado High Country badge. Please identify it for me.

That's just the brand badge for that dealers in house modifications/up fit.

The only things I think you should have mentioned were the towing capacity of the Nissan and how it rides down the highway with a load. I’m trying to find the best mid size for towing a small travel trailer.

I’m sure there has to be videos with towing on YT. Try searching, Frontier towing.

frontier, rangers and colorados have the highest tow capacity of all mid sized trucks. The frontier is 6.1k; the colorado is 7.1k; ranger is 7.5k Max
