2000 Nissan Frontier consumer reviews

2000 model purchased new 11/2000 with 4cyl, 2WD, 5 speed, loaded. Currently has over 255,000 miles, only repair other than two sets of front brakes, one battery, third set of tires, has been an oxygen sensor ($180). Total exhaust system, rear brakes original, but will replace brakes shortly. Have attained over 30mpg on interstate at 65-70mph many times, but normally avg 26-28.5 mpg. Truck is a daily commute vehicle, 90 miles round trip, always starts on cold KS mornings, excellent A/C, good ride on highway. Could use more horsepower, but overall, very satisfied with vehicle. Paint (red) is still excellent shape, no fading, no rust, but do keep it clean and I wax vehicle 4-6 times a years. Not the best looker if style is important, but the dependability and quality shines well beyond many of those 'lookers'.

I would recommend this vehicle to anyone. These trucks are reliable and powerful and a great buy for your money.

I have driven this truck across the country to Nashville, TN and all over the Cascade Mountains in Washington and Oregon. On the mid winter trip to Nashville, I encountered rain, snow, ice, freezing rain, open road, mountain passes, city traffic. The 5 speed manual transmission and cruise control worked great. One 4WD hub went out the first month we had this truck but it was replaced under warrantee. No problems since then. We have hauled snowmobiles and ATV's on the flat bed with ease. You can load from the side as well as from the rear. Works well for hauling riding mowers and other lawn equipment as well. The ladder rack will hold more weight than you want to put that high and is removable when not in use. Their is also an attachement that slides into a front receiver on the front bumper that will help support long pipes or boards that you may wish to carry on the ladder rack. This is a great work truck and fun truck for fishing, camping, off roading anywhere. I would not hesitate to recomend it to friends, family or anyone. RKC
