So Glad I Bought Mine

I was a little nervous jumping from a small car to a truck but I needed a different vehicle for ALL the time and to be able to tow. I am so pleased with the space, even for passengers in back! There is plenty of room in the cab all the way around. Mine was owned prior to me, but it is still gorgeous. Easy to maneuver, ample bed, and tow weight is fantastic for a mid-size. & I am getting BETTER than stated gas mileage . . . always a plus!!!! So glad I Bought Mine! Thank you, Nissan!

Just what I was looking for.

Met all of my needs. Good gas mileage, comfortable interior, great stereo, love the 4.0 liter V6 for pulling trailers, etc., good size bed for hauling

Very Nice Truck!

Great truck! The 4 WD worked great this winter. It has a couple of cold weather issues. One is due to styling, I found that melted snow refreezes at the bottom front of the bed, makes an annoying thumping noise. The other is with the back up camera. Camera works fine, but the alarm sounds even when you aren't close to anything. Other than these two issues, this has been a really great truck

Good working truck SV 4.0

Biggest complaint is mpg. A V8 gets better gas milage. You can pretty much watch the fuel gauge go down as you drive. Some interior items are rather cheap such as the USB port in the console pushed in so far that it can't be used now. The 2 exterior plug in covers broke off rather easy due to the cheap plastic. Having said that I'm extremly happy with the truck. Plenty of power with it's 4.0 engine. Its a beast in 4 wheel drive when driving in snow and mud. Maintenance is user friendly allowing the owner to perform many of routine jobs themselves rather then paying a garage for simple task such as oil changes, transmission changes, differential fluides, etc etc. Many will complain that the trucks not changed much in several years but I would argue its proven design makes it the Glock if mid size trucks so why change it.

Good bang for the buck

I was surprised the NissanConnect app didn't include tripadviser or google maps on a 2016 model. Pandora and Iradio work fine though. The overall appearance and ride are good.

Best vehicle I've ever owned

Nice ride, great looks, all the great options at a great price, and economical. And may I add that this truck is the most comfortable ride I have ever had in a vehicle. I would recommend this truck to anybody out there! What really set it off was the bed cover, splash guards, and side rails. Get lots of compliments all the time! Go out there and drive one--You will not be disappointed!
