2021 Redesigned Nissan discussion mega merged thread on a Tacoma site

Me too. As a prior Nissan Pathfinder owner 1st gen, I'd buy one

 

LOL nothing like " what's your set up? Hey nice rig you got a link for that lift, light, sticker, bumper .....just 25 more mods and I ll have a rig just like that

 

I think it looks like a mini Nissan Titan. I kinda like it.

 

“As for the Tacoma comparisons, apart from fenders and OR wheels... I see nothing similar.”
...

 

I like it too, especially the 9 speed transmission, Toyota needs to take note.

 

A Datsun?! Think there’s been a few upgrades since then

 

It looks badass, but it looks the same and not progressed or futuristic. Nissan seems to be way behind the last twenty years. They used to have some exciting vehicles 20-40 years ago.

 

2021 Ram Dakota.

 

I like it. Would probably buy one if I decided to get out of my 4Runner and go back to having a truck bed.

 

Yep.
My brother in law is already in line.

 

Since it's still the F-Alpha chassis I can't wait to see one "Titan swapped". 10.5+" travel up front with a 6" wider track width, people have been doing it to 2nd gens for years.

 

I actually love the truck. looks like it has front recovery points, real skid plates, and good AT tires.

now, if only it was not Direct Injection only.... Have fun blasting those valves at 80K miles.

 

One cool thing about the Dakota was the option of a V8 in a midsize truck. A friend had a Dakota RT, and that thing was fun! I wonder if they're going to continue offering a V8?

 

can of seafoam through the intake every 20k miles should keep those valves clean

 

Kirkland Signature Truckoma

I do like that they ditched the stupid half window on the rear doors.

 

Looks fine to me. The way the fenders are flared like that will make some 33s look real good.

 

What do you mean by better drivability? Hard to make any comments about its drivability until you can get first hand experience.

 

"If" acceleration, transmission shifting.

 

I used to believe in Seafoam. I use it in my motorcycle sometimes to clean the injectors. Even if it does clean the back of the valves, which I don't believe it will, it may cause premature catalytic converter failure; another $2K fix (OEM parts).

There's a reason why Toyota/Lexus went the route of dual injection at the expense of increased complexity and cost.

EDIT: Dual injection was one of the major reasons why I purchased a Tacoma. Otherwise I would have purchased a port injected car/truck. DI is better for a lot of things, but long term use without valve cleaning is its downfall.
