Any 3rd gen owners come from or now behind the wheel of a Frontier?

Shower thoughts

I'm starting to think the extended cab SV 4WD is an awesome value for the money. I'm not going to lie, but sometimes I think about selling my TRD OR and moving down in truck. I'm sure the depreciation is a little steeper with the Nissan, but I could sell mine and pocket a few bucks. My 18 is paid off.

 

That's the same math that landed me in a frontier in 2008. Zero regrets.

 

Or you could take it down a notch even further ...

 

My Tacoma is just too fancy and I feel like a imposter driving it

 

I had a rental Fortnier for a bit, not a bad truck, they are reliable but a little dated as well

 

Dont buy a new one, buy a used one, put a deck in it and enjoy.

They aren't great on gas but torquey and more enjoyable on the highway.

I have an xterra, and the radio made the truck feel way more modern.

 

While I do love my Taco, I originally wanted the frontier because of the value and I enjoyed the test drive. The wife on the other hand enjoyed the creature comforts and looks of the Taco better though and convinced me to it. No regrets but I think the frontier is a great truck and value

 

I definitely like them, I just can't spend my money with Nissan, burn me once

 

Had a 08 NF. Great truck, steering radius sometimes an issue. Great torque, good highway manners. Handled everything off-road.

 

Had a Frontier as a rental before my Tacoma and it just felt cheap and more like an SUV than a truck.

 

I came from an 02 Frontier to my 18 Taco. The Nissan was a great truck, really close to 300K lifted miles and no major repairs other than front end bushings every 3-4 years because of the lift and some offroad abuse.

 

Forget about u turns in the Frontier...

 

One of the biggest reasons why I went Tacoma instead of Frontier. Plus, no extended cab on the Pro-4x. Not sure why they can't make them able to turn!

 

Idk man, If the taco is paid off. I would never get rid of it

 

Put 300k on an 84 720 KC then bought a 93 Hardbody for $400. Drove it for 4 years and sold it to a girl that honked at me on the street and said she “had to” buy my truck. I asked her what she wanted to pay, she said “$1,600?” I said “follow me home“. We did the paper work, I followed her back to her house then she drove me back home. I fn love NIssan trucks but in 2010 the Nissan salesman was an ass so I walked across the street and bought the only new Taco on the lot. The Taco has been fantastic, as well

 

Frontiers are great trucks. It was neck and neck between a Pro4x and the Taco when I was in the market. I had an 01 Xterra years ago that I loved. Super simple, solid ride, very dependable, terrible fit and finish but who cares. Never had a single problem with it.

Nissan trucks are underrated IMO.

That said, still love my Taco and am glad I got it.

 

Yeah if anything go down to a 2nd gen. Sell that 18, if you own it outright, and pocket 10k give or take.

 

I couldn't handle the interior. Good value though if you don't mind. Redesign coming next MY or one after I believe.

 

I was seriously looking at buying a 17 Frontier but went with the Tacoma after reading Nissan was having transmission problems and trying to get out fixing them in 2017. I liked the look of the truck and the price was considerably lower than Tacoma's. I just read a article the other day saying to avoid the Frontiers because they are still having transmission problems. Looks like I made the right choice.

 

Manual or auto?
