THE BEST!!!

I am so glad I bought this truck in '06. I love everything about it except one small thing (small to me), the turning radius isn't as good as my '92 Pathfinder.

I luv this truck!

I bought my Frontier in the middle of 06 brand new. Today, it still rides and looks new. I have had no problems with it at all. Everything is still in running order. Good Job Nissan!!

Would not trade my truck for anything

I've had my Frontier since xmas day 2006, a present to myself :). I love it so much and wouldn't trade it for anything! The one item I would like to have had in it is port for an MP3 player. Can't beat a 4WD truck that gets right under 400 miles to a 20 gallon tank!

Best truck i've owned

I was in the market for a 4x4 truck after I had purchased a fourwheeler and never gave Nissan even a thought until my friend asked me to come down and look at some of the trucks on the lot he worked for, i'll tell you what from the first drive I was very impressed overall, after a few days of thinking about it I bought one and the only regrets I have is that they didn't have (or couldn't find any) manual transmission versions, and that the back seats are too small for adults, but then again it is only a king cab. Way to go Nissan I will definitely be purchasing another one when this one dies

A Blast to Drive

I got the Crew Cab LE about 3 months ago and I love it. I had a Mustang GT before and I was worried about loosing so much power, but this truck has not disappointed me at all. It has enough power to get you up and out of the way when you need it. There is more than enough space in both the front and back seats, I have friends who top out at 6'6 who climb in the back and can fit in there comfortably. This truck is a lot of fun to drive and has plenty of the perks you expect with some of the new cars coming out today. Go test-drive one, you wont regret it.

I Love this truck.

I had a Dodge RAM 1500 and a Chevy Cavlier. I owned both because I needed good gas milage, but needed a truck. I traded both in for a 2006 Crew Cab and I love it. It has more horse power than the dodge and the gas milage is better. It serves the purpose of a family car or SUV, but I still get to have an great truck. I've owned a few trucks in my lifetime and this is the best I've ever had. Go get one now and you will love it.

best midsize truck made

the best feature if my frontier is the power. i have driven all other small trucks and they don't even compare to the frontier. the interior is comfortable and quite.

satisfied buyer

Almost everything about the '06 Frontier is excellent. I have no buyer's remorse with the choice I made. Significantly larger vehicle in contrast to Nissan's previous pickup models. Also very quiet interior when on the road. The only critique I have is the Frontier's wide turning radius. Can be slightly difficult to maneuver in tight urban parking conditions.

The best vehicle I've ever owned

Purchased about three weeks ago and have made a 1400 mile trip. Very nice riding with lots of features. Have added a cold air intake system which has increase my mileage about 2 - 3 MPG.
