Worse vehicle I ever had

I bought this frontier because I had two nissan harbodys before which were very reliable but on this frontier started to have problems when I only had six years of ownership of this vehicle that I bought brand new. the first problems I had was with the catalytic converter failing and I mean both of them passenger and driver side. luckyly at that time the vehicle was not eight years old and had not reach the eighty thousand miles and the dealer had to replace those catalytic converter. but after that they fail again incurring in twenty five hundred dollar repair because on the second time the catalytic converters were no longer under warranty so I had to pay that out my pocket . not to mention AC problems having to replace the AC compressor and ac lines that fail out nothing and just to mention I didn't know cars had knock sensor I learn that with this truck at a very expensive cost. and I could continue listing all the problems I've had with this truck but it would take me all night to do it and it would make this comment to long like for example an AC line that fail twice how is that possible even when you buy OEM parts. Any way to end this comment it is the worse pickup truck I've ever had I could continue on and on but I think you get the idea.

Favorite ride ive ever owned

Ive got a 2004 supercharged king cab with the manual transmission, (so the funnest one) and I absolutely love it. Dumping the clutch at 4500 rpms will leave you burning some rubber for sure. Keep in mind, its not the fastest ride, but it sure as hell is fun to drive. 🤙🤙
