    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Personally I like Nissans and some of the most reliable vehicles I have owned have been Nissans (3 Maximas). The 3.5L VQ35 engine is great and the Frontier interiors comforts are decent. Honestly the only things that puts me off about it are the lack of after market support and customization.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Nissan never did me wrong. 300k on an '84 KC 2wd gas then 93 Hardbody. I'd buy it just to get all these purse swingers riled up.

    Good enough as a battering ram in the next James Bond movie!

    True enough, but all the guys that have played James Bond since Sean Connery have been sissys by comparison. Make the connection: See the truck, think sissy.

    i thought pretty much all of them were good. Moore, brosnan. Craig isn't bad either. Craig and rachel weizs were in my town last summer. They walked right into a diner past my coworker.

    Yea, skiergd011013, I agree with you. But in comparison, there is no comparison. Very similar to a Frontier compared to a Tacoma. "See whut I be sayin'"?

    My Nissan V6 has 131K miles on it and still pulls hard as the day I bought it. Damn if those Frontiers don't look ugly and dated.

    I would say get a 2015 new Taco for a steal or go 16 Taco

    :notsure:

    Even Connery is on tape saying he likes Craig over his portrayal of Bond. Some have been terrible, but I think Daniel Craig has been by far the best bond from this generation. He definitely rivals Connery, though Connery's role was more campy than the current hard edged Bond. It all depends what you think of when you think of Bond.

    I don't have to, Tunngavik. All I have to do is look at your avatar. And many thanks, by the way. :thumbsup:

    They are OK. Really they were built with cost savings in mind so they share a pile of parts with the Titan. Since the Titan is much heavier, the Frontier is much heavier, and it feels like it. Not to mention the way the truck is setup stock limits it's versatility offroad.

    with my age, i first got introduced to bond as brosnan. It was brosnan in the movies, and videogames. So he was the "face" of bond to me. But watching the older movies, they were damn good as well.

    Same here. It only took Casino Royale for me to forget Brosnan. He was great in Golden Eye, but pretty lame after that. It wasn't all his fault since every move after Goldeneye seemed to be more and more focused on James Bonds tools of the trade rather than any sort of story structure.

    The old movies are great. I for one though feel that just because something was great in the past doesn't mean the future version, with it's own unique qualities, can't be great in it's own right. Wait, that sounds a lot like my motto in the entire 3rd gen forum :D.
