    Redid the screencap as I discovered Irfanview was automatically resizing pics on paste operation:

    R4hbZWjSN6On3o5fh7XRGENKfYc0omUESMDgxBwy_9bab0edec76ebf326fe331ee913b3f1b6b564127.jpg

    Looks like the Frontier's wheelbase is about an inch longer than the Navara's. Front overhang plastic is also an inch longer. Cab is the same length. Inside bed length is the same, but the Frontier's bedside sheetmetal is about two inches longer. The comparison is important because the Navara was a clean-sheet redesign only 5 years ago, so it's expected to get a facelift but keep the same platform. Note the Navara in the video is RHD, with wipers in the opposite direction.

    My first thought it is the shape and styling definitely match the leaked Nismo concept photo. Nice size comparison next to the Armada in the closing scenes. On a side note, that new Z car looks incredible.

    My Nissans:

    • 2011 Altima: crap
    • 2014 Altima: crap
    • 2018 Altima: semi-crap
    Appalling 1970s build quality. 1985 Hyundai Excel interiors. Weird gremlins throughout. And what's with that orange interior lighting. CVT = expensive time bomb.

    I hope my 2021 Altima is better but the odds aren't good.

    Yes.. they are. If I had been paying for them I'd have quit after the first one. ;)

    Wife wants another Subaru but I'm really not keen on a CVT. I found out the Outlander GT comes with a 3.0L V6, 6spd auto, SH-AWD and 3500lb tow capacity.

    Much rather spend money on that. I doubt I'd even keep my truck as I'm picking up a new dual sport bike this fall. Funny how we change, I used to think these were ultra lame.
