Awsome Truck... LE Crew Cab 4x4 Short Bed

Overall I'm extremely happy with my purchase. Pretty much decked out with every option. Love the Bluetooth. Upgraded Radio is one of the best sounding systems I've owned. I've read the standard radio was unimpressive. Back seat has adequate legroom for average folks despite what some reviews claim. Rear seatbacks are quite vertical, although there is only so much room in a midsized crew cab. You have to make some sacifices somewhere. Most people would still find it comfortable for all but the longest of trips. Front bucket seats are very comfortable although the center arm rest is a little short for me. They should have taken out one of the two large cup holders to make it longer. V6 has good power and handles well for a truck. Ride is very quiet and smooth on flat services. Over bumps it is a little stiff but it is a truck don't forget! I was a little surprised at the large turning radius required but you get use to it. Tie down features of the bed are excellent. I would have liked to have a little longer of a bed but I couldn't find a loaded LE with the long bed option anywhere in the Washington DC area. I guess I could have ordered it if I had the patience. Looked at the Tacoma and Dakota but I love the rugged & brawny styling of this truck and that is what steered me to it. Couldn't be happier!

Love my new truck

I previously owned a Ford Ranger XLT and there is no comparison in quality between the Frontier and Ranger - I looked first at the new Ranger and then the Frontier and was amazed how much nicer the Frontier is and even performance - Love my new truck

Best truck I've owned

I took the truck out for a 100 mile ride. I had no fatigue, or sleeping legs. The seat enveloped me and truly supported my back. The steering is a little tight, but, I like tight steering. I had it on the highway and city streets and it performed great. Excellent value for the money.

2010 Frontier

An easy, dependable pickup to drive. Good gas mileage, good on bad roads. It is dependable vehicle for use on the farm and ranch. It easy to handle off road when checking cattle of fixing fence. It handles well in Omaha in heavy traffic as well. Good for long haul driving whether on the Interstate or local gravel roads. You do have to make sure the rear doors are closed or the dome light stays on and drains the battery.

Horrible Truck

Do not buy. The Frontier front suspension is horrible. The truck will not track straight on the road, has sever bump steer, the shocks a lousy even after replacing them with $300 Bilsteins the truck shutters when I encounter a manhole cover. The auto transmission bogs during the upshift between 1st & 2nd gears, in lieu of accelerating. The brake feel is unsubstaintial. You think that you're going to be stopping but the pedal feel is fooling you. Where in fact you haven't slowed much, now you better been hitting the brakes harder before it's too late.
