    Yep. It looks like they've taken 3 popular models and allowed 3D software to perform a blend.

    I feel Hyundai does this to their sedans with the Accord and Camry.

    Seems like a fairly safe bet for manufacturers trailing the lead. ;)

    Honestly it looks decent. I have a 2002 Xterra that starts, runs and kicks up mud after 19 years of use and abuse (~170k.) All that and it'll now sit for months between starts.

    I like those things too, but that doesn't change my opinion of how it looks. I'm not saying it needs an ugly ass tablet screen like RAM has. I'm just saying it looks like it is already outdated.

    If we’re going based on looks, I’ll take the Bronco with 35’s, beyond that I’ll stick with the reliability & looks of my Tacoma.

    The Nissan 370Z placed the clutch slave cylinder inside the transmission bell housing for a smooth clean look. Guess who has issues with slave cylinders.

    It's a really nice looking truck. I'd have been interested if it was out when I was shopping for the Tacoma.

    The roof and tailgate appear similar.

    Where've I heard that before?

    People should learn to like the looks of the new Frontier, you're going to be seeing it on the 2035 Frontier as well.

    The interior looks fine, it's definitely has more features than the tacoma. Not everything has to be covered in leather or Alcantara.

    We don't even get basic rear seat flip down cup holders or ac plugs in the Taco and Toyota has had time to do that.

    I like that Nissan applied a cement gray shade on their truck, one of the most popular colors for the 3rd gen. The red and black TRD colors are also a nice touch.

    You might be correct as l am very prejudicial against Dakota's, can barely stand to even look at one. My ex gf's son was looking to buy one and l literally begged him not too, he didnt listen and of course it is constantly broke down.

    They could do a new wheel design instead of OR rippoff

    I mean 8 year old boys design wheels in classroom all the time on their art drawings

    What's with those red handles on the console?

    I prefer that are to be as less restrictive as possible. It makes it easier to climb over if you have to get in from the passenger side.

    Lol, oh don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of them either. I don't trust FCA products at all for reliability.

    Looks great. Color is good, the tailgate indents good, the new badges good. Interior super nice...
    I think it might look like a cement gray tacoma cuz of the color they picked to release b/c its super popular and the indents on the tailgate.
    All around knock out.

    I dig it, IMO it looks much "cooler" than the Jeep truck, Ranger and Canyon/Colorado. Maybe I'll snag one in 2035 before they do the next refresh!
