Overview & Reviews

Nissan's compact pickup rolls into 2003 with many new enhancements. Most interesting is a power-operated retractable top. The "Open Sky" top -- essentially a giant sunroof -- is optional on Crew Cab models. For safety, Nissan has added standard dual-stage front airbags for Crew Cabs, standard LATCH child seat anchors on King Cabs and Crew cabs, an optional stability control system and an optional tire pressure monitoring system. Other changes for 2003 include 10 more horsepower for normally aspirated V6 models, a driver seat-height adjuster and standard Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD). King Cabs now have standard ABS, a new storage bin and a new first aid kit (V6 only).

• Wide variety of body configurations and trim levels, many safety and convenience features.

• No third door on King Cabs, cramped rear seats for Crew Cabs.

  2003 Nissan Frontier SE V6 Long Bed - 2003 Nissan Frontier

  Not enough power out of the 3.3 V6. Horrible fuel mileage. Cheap look to the interior.

  Nice but could be even better - 2003 Nissan Frontier
  By EarlR - December 18 - 1:20 pm

  I bought my Frontier as a dual-purpose vehicle; a tow rig for my 240SX race car, and off-road toy for mountian trips. As a tow rig the truck is just adequate; the long wheel base (CC/LB) makes it very stable, but the engine is a little underpowered. If I had known they were coming out with a 4L 265-HP version I might have waited to buy my truck. As noted, the gas mileage is pretty poor, but part of that surely stems from the low gearing (4.63:1 rear) needed to compensate for the underpowered engine. OTOH, as an off-road truck it shines. With just a change of tires (M/Ts) the truck turns into a 4-wheeling beast; I can go everywhere my buddys Jeep Rubicon goes-until the beds starts to drag :)

  XE V6 crew cab - 2003 Nissan Frontier
  By jefpay - October 2 - 10:00 am

  My 2003 Crew Cab, XEV6 is my 6th Nissan truck since 1986. I have owned virtually all the body style and both the 4 cyl and 6 cyl engine..The mechanical reliabilty is unmatched. The only problems I have encounters are water pumps and AC failures. While it is underpowered it still remains at the top of my list!!!

  What a fun truck! - 2003 Nissan Frontier
  By Nancy Ellis - September 15 - 10:00 am

  I always wanted a truck, but had never driven one and knew nothing about them. I test drove them all, and settled on the Frontier for reasons of price, 4 doors, and appearance. I was lucky to find a 2003 used, low-mileage SE Crew Cab in solar yellow with all the options I wanted. It is SOOOO fun and I enjoy the attention it generates, (although I am a middle- aged lady with a kid in college!) I am sure glad I traded in that "soccer mom" beige minivan!

  One Tough Truck - 2003 Nissan Frontier
  By datsun72 - August 25 - 4:16 am

  Bought mine new. I now have over 140,000 on it. All Ive ever had to do is change oil. Ive only had to replace the brake pads once. The tires average over 60,000 before I replace them. Its never even had to be aligned. Toughest vehicle Ive ever owned. It still looks brand new. Its worked hard and now my son drives it. Liked it so well I bought a 2008 Frontier to keep it company. Nissan builds the most reliable truck out there.

  Really enjoy this truck. Rides and drives well and yet feels like a truck. Much better value in my opinion than Prerunner.

  AWSOME TRUCK - 2003 Nissan Frontier
  By Harvey Anthony - August 14 - 10:00 am

  This truck is all and more than I hoped it would be. Its fast when I want, has awsome 4wd capability, and drives like a 2wd.I drove a long way to get it [ 4wd sc not available in my area] and have been happy that I did. Only flaws, kind of flashy for my taste, and I only wonder what the guy was thinking when he made the instrument panel the way he did...awful,but I can live with it!

  03 Frontier Crew Cab 4WD SB - 2003 Nissan Frontier
  By henrysc - August 8 - 2:00 am

  This truck is a solid performer on and off road. Have not towed with it yet, but expect it will do fine. Will probably add 3" lift kit and performance exhaust.

  Great truck to have fun in!! - 2003 Nissan Frontier
  By Steven - April 29 - 9:06 pm

  I bought this truck brand new while stationed at FT. Sill, OK. I used this truck to pull the biggest U-Haul trailer (I think its a 6x12) from there to Kansas City, MO. Thats about 455 miles. It was stuffed to the roof with belongings, including the interior of the truck, and the bed. It pulled it wonderfully at about 70 MPH the whole way. Only got about 7 miles to the gallon, but I was pulling roughly 3,000 lbs. I bought a reciever hitch to pull the trailer. I havent had a single problem with it, 4WD works great in snow and having fun in the muck.
