To each his own, but the ~2010 Toyota trucks looked great. Now they look hideous to me, and are far too expensive for a mid sized 6 cylinder. My new Pro 4X came with every option for several thousand $$$ less. No giant stack, grill, or non functional scoop though. I guess I could score those out of a JC Whitney catalog later.

I bought a 2016 king cab SV V6 4x4 brand new. So far it has been fantastic. These are very rugged little trucks. Only complaint I have is gas mileage and turning radius. I can live with that. Im not getting 20mpg all day long like you. These Frontiers are a good deal. They are nothing fancy, but thats what I like about them. Simple and tuff. I am 53 years old and have no interest in a bunch of bullshit electronic gizmos. Affordable and reliable is what I am interested in. Thats what this truck is from my experience. Is it perfect? Hell no. But in my opinion this is a great little truck for the money and I highly recommend it to anybody who wants a reliable, tuff, and affordable small truck. I have not had a single problem of any kind with mine so far.

People, please for the love of god, stop making videos comparing Nissan Frontiers to trucks like the Tacoma. They aren't the same thing. The Tacoma doesn't have a fully boxed ladder frame. It doesn't have 4 wheel disc brakes. It has a plastic truck bed you cannot put anything into without voiding your warranty. It is nothing but a glorified grocery getter / bro-dozer. The ONLY advantage you have in a Tacoma over a Frontier is the fact that you can resell it for higher. That of course is offset by the fact that you quite clearly PAID more for it up front. The Frontier is the last true midsize truck made for truck owners. STILL the most rigid fully ladder boxed frame on the market of all midsizes. The best reliability (JD power most reliable truck for sale in the USA, both midsize AND full size for both 2016 and 2017, whereas the Tacoma is the highest failure rated truck in the USA and Toyota as a brand has the most recalls of any import there is.) You buy a Nissan Frontier to do work, because it is reliable, because engineering to you is more important than having an extra 16 USB charging ports added to the rear passenger doors. The ONLY downside I've found to my 2016 manual pro-4x so far is the fuel economy and the fact that they won't sell it with a moonroof/sunroof when you choose a manual transmission. The fuel economy I expect. It's a heavily built chassis and body that doesn't flex and the engine, while dated, was designed for high torque and longevity. So while the neighbor with the Taco is wondering why his truck shuts off on the highway due to electrical glitches or has his passenger side door fall off of the truck when it's less than 30 days old while at 60mph, both of which have happened to coworkers of mine in the past 3 years, you can rest assured that your Frontier will mechanically and structurally stand the test of time. Toyota just lost in 2017 the largest automotive class action lawsuit in US history when the USA proved that Toyota trucks and SUVs have significant rust damage coming off of the assembly line. Before they even hit the dealer lots as new vehicles they are rusting away underneath and that's what they're selling to customers. The USA wasn't having any of that and that settlement is over 5 billion $ now and counting. The government even forced Toyota to cease sales of the FJ Cruiser in this country because they WERE BREAKING IN HALF AT THE FRAME and Toyota could not rectify the issue. Go try and buy a 2018 FJ Cruiser, I dare you. Just sold my 22 year old Nissan frontier which was parked next to the ocean most of my naval career and the salt air did literally nothing to it body or frame. Please stop comparing the current Nissan Frontiers with some of these newer midsize trucks which are trying to drive more like cars than trucks and give you CAR interiors and such rather than TRUCK interiors. They are not the same thing.
@DoubleTap7026 жыл бұрын
jkutyna they both fall into the midsize truck category which Toyota dominates in sales. Of course people are going to compare the two.
@jkutyna6 жыл бұрын
True, but the Honda ridgeline beats ALL midsize trucks out with regards to the JOURNALISTS' REVIEWS. That truck is currently winning all of the rewards because it's giving the tech addicts who review the vehicles exactly what they want. That thing is a unibody chassis. By my definition, it's not even a truck for that reason alone. Take everything with a grain of salt. There are things people are all looking for, some vehicles stand out in some respects more than others. Unfortunately for Nissan's sales, it's strengths with the Frontier is not where the mainstream public has placed it's priorities in the past decade or so. They want a CAR like ride and good MPG. That clearly doesn't suit the Frontier in anyway. The aged Frontier here is exactly what some of us others exactly are looking for, a no frills rock solid platform with the best reliability there is, at the lowest cost. If I can't expect to get 20 years out of a truck, I won't even consider it. If it doesn't come with a manual, I won't even consider it so that wipes out all the full size trucks for me and really limits my choices to Tacoma, Frontier, Colorado/Canyon, but not really as the GM branded trucks SAY they offer a manual but they only do so on the barely produced 4 cylinder versions.
@jkutyna6 жыл бұрын
While you are correct that yes people will keep comparing the 2, it's not really a fair comparison as people are selecting their vehicles based on criteria that is important to them and the Tacoma is built for ultra light duty, if that, more MPG and looking good in the surburban streets than anything. That is appealing to people lately so it sells. That and the higher resale value. I do not deny that. You won't get someone who wants to buy a truck and sell it within 3 years to get a new one and will NEVER take it off of pavement, to buy into the merits of owning a Nissan Frontier. It just will not come close in their decision based on what else is out there.

This has been the most reliable vehicle I have purchased and would not hesitate to buy another one with high miles. This is the first vehicle I have kept and run over 100K miles, since I had it beat into my head that all vehicles over 100K miles go to hell, I was worried.

@@jacknabstedt3222 NEITHER the silverado NOR the F series NOR the Ram are midsize or compact trucks. Believe it or not, but there are people who absolutely DO NOT WANT SOMETHING THE SIZE OF THE TITANIC when driving a truck down the road. It's bad enough just how big the mid size trucks have gotten. Most of the bad reviews by the hard core Ford folks about the new Ranger is that it's nearly the size of a full size F series AS well as almost the same cost. STOP COMPARING FULL SIZE TRUCKS TO MID SIZE. If I need to tow some heavy weight over 10,000 pounds, then I would be looking at a full size truck, but I and the vast majority of people on the road today do not have anything that masses that much that they need to tow.

Granted it may not have apple play or other things that other people find more appealing than a proven v6 engine. I knew the design was still the same as it was in 05.

I had a 2010 4x4 Crew Cab V6 with the full size bed not the short bed like this guys plus a lot of bells and whistles. I can’t remember the mileage but I bought it in 2014 so it wasn’t too high. I got it for $14K at a 3.9% interest rate, payments were $302 a month with $1.2k down and a trade in that was a 2001 Chevy Cavalier with tons of miles. I really liked the truck. It was a one owner vehicle before I got it and that happened to be a little old lady who keep it in a garage and never drove it in the rain. The truck was a find...so I thought. 3 months in it started running hot then it wouldn’t then it would. So one hot as fuck Alabama summer it runs hot so I pull over to add coolant and hope it rights itself. I open the radiator and I see something strange. It appears to be opaque orange jello chunks in the coolant. This truck runs orange coolant. It also has the trans cooler located inside the main radiator. Come to find out this trans coolers fins are plastic and the glue that hold them together does like the orange coolant so I get hydraulic fluid in the orange coolant which just so happens to create opaque orange jello. That jello had made its way into the transmission and by the time I realized that it was too late. It was going to cost multiple thousands to replace the transmission. I went to the dealership and basically got told too fucking bad so I basically told them to suck dog cock then I went to the bank who was financing it in hopes of refinancing and getting it fixed and they were anything but helpful, courteous or professional so i also told them what they could suck And I stopped making the payments. They reposed and my amazing 780 credit score was destroyed and ended up a 540. That truck was my gift to myself for not dying in Afghanistan. I should’ve bought the Chevy that had the big V8 leather seats was lowered and cost $8k more lol. I just recently bought a 2001 4x4 king cab Frontier with a V6 and I’m loving it. It’s a phenomenal truck.

Thanks for your military service in Afghanistan! Yes, it could be quite perilous there!! You may want to check out this: "The giant of Kandahar 2012". My rule for a truck is no automatic transmissions! Only truck I've ever bought new, that had an automatic, was a Nissan Titan. I wore it out after 250k, but the transmission crapped out right at 170,000 miles. The thing I loathed about it was, you guessed it, the automatic transmission. That is why I would not consider another one. I'm with you, I'll take an older Nissan with the 6 cylinder, but manual transmission only! Someone told me about 900,000 miles ago, that I'd get tired of the manual transmission, not so!! I had a Toyota SR5 that I bought new, that had the axle housing crack at 26,000 miles. I had a very similar experience to yours, with the dealership. I found out, on the next year toyota truck, that they changed the design of the rear axle housing!! Haven't had a toyota truck since then!!
@erictheboringone52925 жыл бұрын
Carlos Carpinteyro Unless I plan on towing, spending tons of time on the trails or a few other scenarios I don’t mind an automatic as long as it’s geared right for what I’ll be doing and it doesn’t have any hard shifts for any reason. So far the Frontiers auto trans has been more than satisfactory. That being said my pet peeve is actually along the same line as yours. I won’t have a truck that isn’t a 4x4 and it can’t have the push button system for going into and out of 4Hi and 4Lo. Gotta have an actual shift lever. I also prefer manual hubs but auto locking hubs are so well made and reliable these days that I let it slide. Btw I appreciate you saying thanks for my service. It means a lot to me when folks recognize the sacrifice.

Your window switch panel gap is related to a hook the slides under the other panel. You can remove the switch panel and place a shim in there in less than 20 minutes easy. Or glue the shim to the door panel so the hook has to slide over it. It's super easy to remove the door panels on a frontier. I've done mine probably 10 times over nearly 20 years. It's 3 screws, 1 press pull tab 1 or 2 clips including door lever cover (Depends on options) and then pull the clips that border the panel holding your door panel on. Seriously it's really easy and the clips are better made than most so you have a lower risk of damaging them.

Another thing I noticed with these frontiers is the tailgate cover. It’s plastic, which is no big deal... but with the tailgate down, the plastic lip is sticking up, so if you drag something out of the truck with the tailgate down, it can easily snag that plastic lip and the whole plastic cover rips off. I did this to my bosses truck with a big plastic pipe. Ripped the whole thing right off. And our other frontier has the plastic cover zip tied on because someone else did the same thing. Just something Nissan should of thought about more. Don’t get me wrong, I love Nissan hardbodies, great little work trucks. First gen frontiers were alright. The four doors were almost useless . You can fit small children in the back somewhat comfortably. And it felt a little cheap but not a bad truck. I really want Nissan to make a new generation already, it’s been too long. I hope they go more Tacoma route than ridgeline. But come on Nissan, keep manual transmissions and give us something to brag about rather than defend.

I bought a low mileage used 2017 SV 4X4 Frontier with V6 and auto in June of 2017. I was initially looking for an SUV with decent off-road capability with low range a requirement. Aside from Jeep wrangler, they just don't exist any more. A few Jeep models have low range but other than Wrangler not enough clearance for good off-roading. I ended up buying the Frontier. So far I'm quite happy with it, no repairs needed so far. It's a beast off-road stock, and would be damn near unstoppable with a lift and lockers. It drives like a truck, but a very civilized truck. Ride is a bit rough, but handling is very good for a truck (not bad for a car, actually). The engine has all the power I need. Complaints: Turning radius, gas mileage: I'm gettin about 17 on mostly (mountain) highway driving. Power outlets turn off when ignition is off, so I can't charge a phone when it's shut off. I can live with these (the power outlet thing is the worst for me). I've only driven it in snow once so far, but it was better in two wheel drive than I expected, even with no weight in the bed, and of course very good in 4 wheel. If you're looking for all the latest bells and whistles and a car-like ride, you won't like it, but if you want a solid, tough truck at a reasonable price, it's great.

Early 2000,s had issues with timing belts going out and destroying the engine my 2006 did, I got a reconditioned engine with 15k on it fingers crossed, I’m also on the 2 set of California Cats $$$ , have replaced the fuel sensor, 2 ignition coils, and a passenger side window regulator, like the truck and hope for no more issues..

Nice. I just purchased an 06 from an older uncle with only 37k miles on it. He's to old to drive and doesn't even have more than 3,000 miles on his 2016 Nissan. Sentra 🤷🏻♂️ He said it "Frontier" was to big for him, So I made him an offer and he took, it just needs new tires, since they are the original BFG's and are Dry cracked everywhere 🤦🏼♂️ He left it sitting for a few years and would only turn it on once or twice a week and sometimes my aunt would drive it on his property should he ask her to. I've checked for SMOD all good. Did bypass of Transmission Coolant and only run it through the OEM Trans Coolant and not radiator, now I plan on doing the Rear Differential Mod, just to be safe. If anyone else knows of any more mods Needed, please let me know. I plan to keep it as a Classic after it's 20 years old and all these Electric cars are coming out 🤷🏻♂️

I have a '17 Frontier SV, six cylinder, 4WD. Drives great, great power for a six, and it has been reliable. The only thing that has gone wrong was I busted out a fog lamp and changing it is not pleasant. The only gripe I have is the dashboard - whatever that material is, it collects dust and resists all attempts to wipe it off. Other than that, great truck.

I have a 2017 Nissan Frontier it’s a great truck and I am very happy that I made this choice on buying one. My truck is an SV but it came with a lot of extras I made research between many trucks and found out Japanese foreign trucks really don’t loose much value. I have found 2008 frontiers that are worth more than bigger America trucks and keep their value. Good trucks

The frontier is a modern truck, it was way ahead of its time when it came out in 05, rated to tow 6000 pounds, and now thats standard for midsize trucks, im glad its kinds the ranger in a sense. The over seas model "navara" has a new model but dont think ittl be imported.

Bought a 2000 Tacoma v6 auto new,put 269,000 on it with the only repair an inner tie-rod end $260.traded in on a new 2011 frontier4 cylinder 5 speed stick 7.5 years 129,000 Feels like I'm riding a scare board $1300- fuel pump $400 -fuse box $800-shock and struts $1500-replacement exhaust pipe with oxy sensor(flange just fell off pipe at header) $70 auto tensioner $250- water pump Now power steering pump is squealing That's $4500 repairs for nissan,$250 for the Toyota. You decide! I know Toyota fixed their transmission problems but with the prices I'm afraid to buy any new truck from anybody!

You bought a used truck that could have been well and truly trashed with that many miles. I don't care who makes the vehicle, with 130k miles, you're basically buying into faith in the previous owner's driving and maintenance habits. Why are you failing to point out that your 2000 Tacoma also rusted in half as that is one of the years that Toyota was forced to cover for a new frame when it lost the WORLD'S LARGEST CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT to the US government about it's rusty truck and suv frames?

I don’t know if it was mentioned, the back window is like that because it wouldn’t roll down all the way if they didn’t divide it. Very common on rear doors for trucks, sedans, and SUV’s.

I got a 2013 pro 4x4 Frontier crew cab love it too, just wish it had more towing capability. The reason why Nissan devided the read seat windows is so it would be able to go all the way down when you lower it, if you had a full undevided window then when you lower it it would not go down all the way because the air bags placement and such are in the way. Also I really hate that Nissan Frontier its been almost the same thing since 2005, i mean hello Nissan We are in 2018!!!!!!!!!!!! Been paying the same money for the same looks and the same engine design that gives 15-16 mpg in the city while you got chevy silverado 5.3 v8 doing 16 mpg in the city!!!!! Totally hate Nissan for that.

Right, but you would have to pay a lot more for a Frontier with a newly designed engine that gets better mpg. The Frontier is old tech. I get 20 in my SV 4x4 V6. I don't think that's too bad. My 93 Toyota with a 2.4l 4-cylinder got 18.

do the 2017's have the same radiator that develops a crack in trans cooler which dumps coolant into trans..$5k mess..? this is not the same as a 2004 and earlier frontier. The 2.4 engine was the best.

Nice looking truck! The white really pops. I've had a 2006 Mitsubishi Raider and a 2007 Dodge Dakota Lariat, but I've had a 2016 Frontier for about 10 months now and I really love the thing. (I've also had an '81 Chevy Luv and a Mitsubishi Mighty Max, heh). I've taken my Frontier hunting off road in the Pacific Northwest mountains and it never had the slightest issue. I mostly drive in the city though, so my gas mileage hasn't been great, currently sitting at 12.8 mpg, but I don't have much of a commute so it doesn't matter. I actually just had a friend review mine here if you want to check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWbOgXaXnNV_htE A friend of mine just got a '18 Toyota Tacoma that has a more advanced looking interior, but there's just something about the Frontier. In a word, it's badass. One question though: I'm thinking about getting it lifted, but have never done that before and don't know where to start. How much does something like that cost, and where do I even begin looking? Thanks, and congrats on joining the Frontier family. I even wave at other Frontier drivers on the road when I see them because only they know what it's like!

I had a 2004 tacoma but i wanted 4 doors so the guy at my cr union got this for me. 2017 frontier ashole never told me it was a 4.0 6 cyinder. Notice the kick diff than my 4 cylinder taco so i called him and said i had a 6 cylinder 4.0. i checked the truck but failed to ck the rest of it. I mean this baby runs good and not many people leave me behind although i do not speed i love it. Thing is, uses way too much gas than my 4 cyl which i understand. How can i drive it to use less fuel. ?? help
