A lot of people like the bells and whistles. I think a lot of people appreciate a simpler truck that may take a little bit more finesse and driver ability to do the same things. Plus it feels good when you save a couple bucks, build your own rig, then make it through the same (maybe even more) obstacles as one of those bought rigs with the fancy bells and such. I love my Nissan just as a light duty truck. I bought it to fit light duty struck stuff and it's never let me down so far and it's been 60k miles between FL and now mainly PA.

[@TheMeanmarine13]

I'm a Ford guy but man I'm impressed by that frontier. I might actually consider it for the price. Never thought this would happen to me. I would say the Ford probably has more reliable tranny than a Nissan product but we've been having so many issues lately across the board, I can't even say that now. Edit: I've never owned a frontier but have had Pathfinders with so many problems. Mostly transmission so I was jaded but the frontier is changing my mind

[@D41Michigan]

No worries for the trans. It's ain't a CVT like those pathfinder you had. Nissan acutally went away from the CVT for the 22 and up pathfinder. The 9speed in the Frontier is based off the Mercedes 9g Tronic.

[@donleamon8653]

Well, depending on the year Pathfinder he is talking about, it could be the older ones that had issues with the heat exchanger in the radiator as I recall, that could develop pinhole leaks, which lead to coolant/trans fluid suicide fruit smoothie. I’d go Frontier over Ranger any day if I were keeping it 5+ years.

[@D41Michigan]

@@donleamon8653 yeah them older ones had the SMOD problem....thats the R51 pathfinder which was basically a slightly bigger Xterra but could get the V8. When they switched to the FWD pathfinder they had a CVT

[@jdfleetguy28]

Awesome video guys ! Love seeing the Ranger Raptor in action. I took the steps off mine shortly after buying it. It’s not all that tall to even need steps to get in and out of it. I did add PPF to protect the belly and rear fenders since the steps do help protect from rock chips. I just hated how high they were making me step way up then crouch way down to get in and out. Without the steps at 6ft tall, I just step right in now without the steps.

[@matthewsmith1461]

Not sure if that was the 2025 Frontier. The 2025 has the option to add one of two wheel packages that come with either BF Goodrich KO2 or MAXXIS Razr MT tires. You can also get the factory 2” lift kit with upgraded remote reservoir rear shocks. This would have been a big help for clearance and traction.
