    Chose a 2005 Nissan Frontier over a Tacoma at the time, owned it for 9 years. Nissan was terrible to deal with. Now a proud owner of a '17 TRD sport upgrade, and I love it! Peace out Nissan!

    Like, so many.
    Me too. The Fronty was what I could afford at the time, but wow is the Taco an upgrade. I actually like the Pro4X though. I think it's a really proven design.

    I enjoyed my Fronty, but 2005-2010 auto trans 4x4 have seriously flawed transmission line/coolant line assemblies that wreck the whole transmission and Nissan is leaving thousands of people in the lurch because they seemingly don't want to be accountable. So goodbye fronty, we had some good times, but the taco hasn't had anyone but me yet
