Great looking and well-designed

This is my second Frontier. It?s a reliable workhorse of a truck. Instrument layout is simple and intuitive. Reasonably comfortable. And it fits nicely in my standard-size garage.

Quality Truck/Reasonable Price

I've owned approximately 15 trucks in my life and my Nissan has been my favorite. I recently traded in a 2008 Frontier with 130,000 miles with which I had zero problems. The only thing I replaced in that period was two sets of tires and one battery. The only reason I traded the truck in was to go from a 2 wheel drive to a 4 wheel drive.

Old Datsun B210!

Nissan is a reliable auto manufacturer!I wanted a car or a truck so I decided on the crew cab Frontier!It performs like a car and serves as a pickup when I need one! The best of both world is what the Frontier gives me!

Best car buying experience ever

I absolutely love this truck! I didn?t feel pressured at any point in the purchasing of this vehicle. The salesman was extremely helpful and the finance manager was awesome!

Much Better than the new Tacoma

I got rid of my 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport because of all the issues with it. The transmission never knew what gear it wanted to be in, it was uncomfortable and even with the v6 it was slow. I was hesitant to try the Frontier but after I test drove it I was certain it was better than the Tacoma. It is quick, comfortable and the Desert Runner I purchased has a lot of nice features. The only thing I miss is a back up camera but the truck is much better than the new Tacoma. Maybe Toyota will learn their lesson and fix all the issues with the new Tacoma. I love my Frontier.

Love My New Truck

The truck handles beautifully, it sounds beefy and yet due to being double insulated doesn't interfere with interior conversations or listening to music. Not so big I have to jump into it but just the right size for someone 5 foot 4. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a truck!

Basic truck, will add as we go.

Big enough for us and still small enough for us to enjoy driving . Wish it had a back up camera. Dogs like to ride in the back seat.
