Do any of you secretly wish

Link?

NVM found it lol

here it is if anyone is curious

They honestly think the frontier looks better?

 

So briefly after goingto the link.... , THANK YOU mods for not dropping ads in the thread, and 2 i guess manual tacomas are as hard to find as jackalopes....er ...ok. I think theres more tacomas with manuals than you can shake a stick (LOL) at.

 

Love my bed and so does the wife. Hint, hint, nudge, nudge, wink, wink

 

And did you realize that our Tacomas require premium fuel?

 

Proof of the lesser mind generating false statements to justify dislike.
Hmm , maybe 87 octane is premium , does theirs run on piss?

 

That was hilarious reading. I didnt know Frontier owners call their cars "Fronty's". That nickname sounds like a piece of lingerie or something. A lot of responses in that forum for not buying the Tacoma seems to be an issue of $4500.

 

My 1st Gen was starting to rust under the spray-on liner. No issues here with the plastic -- as long as you have a bed mat.

 

Hell, after looking at that Club Frontier (sound like a gay club to anyone else?) thread I'm glad I bought a Tacoma just for TW. Those guys seem like morons.

 

I started reading and couldn't stand it anymore after 3 pages. The term Fronty started to piss me off.

 

I bet they all have I-pads,Starbucks and turtlenecks on too.
Keep in mind many of them did ......research , thus they are educated scholars?
Naw , think we all did research as early as 2nd grade. Too funny though, buy what ya like, but dont hide behind lies or misconceptions to justify it.

I didnt know there was a "rivalry",sounded more like haters hatin over there to me.After what i saw from the flauntys er frontys , TW is ran better , and better members.

 

hahaha, I started that thread over there. Didn' realize you all would find it too!
Apparently that topic comes up often over there...LOL
I just picked up a POS frontier (work truck) and am wondering what to do with it. And I had a few Nissans in the past too...

And the reason I started this thread (about the plastic bed) was to see if you all liked yours...I of course like mine.

 

the hardbody was the last of the good nissans

 

I wish I had a metal bed...Oh, wait a sec...

 

Thanks for linking, I was about to and ya beat me to it

 

Throw some firewood into that bare metal bed and it will dent..like my Titan did. That titan bed was sooooooo dented up from Firewood it was just terrible, but that's why I bought the truck - firewood hauling etc...the fonty has to be just as bad with denting. The taco's plastic bed takes all the abuse and more..and won't rust and weighs less.. double WIN!!

 

I thought about that too. $5000 isnt trivial, but compared to a truck holding resale, or staying on the road long term, $5000 seemed a small price in the end,and, at the price i payed it wasnt $5000 more, more like $2000.
I dont see a lot of Nissan trucks over 8 years old around here for some reason. On the other hand , you can't find a 2wd toyota 97-04 gen1 or 2 under $5000 here.One can easily scoff "overpriced" , but truthfully they just hold up better from the few I've seen.

 

ill probably just remove the rear D-rings and put them in thr front. i never use the rear D-rings anyways.

 

My wish was to get the fully loaded tacoma... got it

no major issue with the bed. You must remember to not hit it hard with heavy sharp objects though, as it might break through instead of making a dent like a metal bed. But that is just logic.

You will get scratches, sure, but the scratches won't rust like your metal bed. And you can later seal them with epoxy or whatever you like. Also, it stains more than a metal bed, so washing dirt takes longer.

 

what about the fact that it can be unbolted and replaced much more easily. Just hoist it out and put a new one in.

composite is much more durable and stronger that the metal beds. Its just that metal bends under high impact and our composite might just crack

 

less weight easier burnies
