  • Great truck, but as always a few complaints - 2011 Nissan Frontier
    By -

    Overall I am mostly satisfied with this truck. Ive driven this one for just over 8,000 miles. I like the exterior styling except for the excessive amounts of "chrome" or bright shiny metal/plastic. Im fine with the bumpers being shiny, but the front bumper along with the bright grille is simply to much in my opinion. Not a big deal, Im paint the grille and that problem is solved.They also attempted to solve this in the 2012 model with the sports package. Im nearly satisfied with the interior. The materials could have been a bit better, but arent bad overall. It just seems as if the plastics scuff up pretty easily. Lastly the automatic transmission is a bit of a gear hunter.

  • Better than a Tacoma - 2011 Nissan Frontier
    By -

    I owned an 04 Tacoma Crew Cab that I was never going to get rid of. Very reliable and functional. Then I moved to the Eastern Sierras and needed 4WD. I quickly narrowed it down to a Tacoma and Frontier. Chose the Frontier because of better pricing an appearance. Ive had it for10 months and nearly 13,000 miles. There has not been a problem. 4WD works great in the snow and I just got back from a hunting trip in Wyoming where I was off road for a couple of hundred miles. Even needed 4WD low and it went everywhere I needed to go. Im very satisfied with the Frontier. Its my first Nissan truck (I used to own an Infiniti). I owned an 88 and 04 Toyotas and this is better than either.

  • Yes you should get one! - 2011 Nissan Frontier
    By -

    Awesome truck, wish I purchased thr PRO-4X instead. This is the 3rd time Ive own a pickup truck and the best time. This truck is bullet proof. Ive put it through the wringer. Awesome in snow and mud. Very stable and at times almost drives like a car. No problem yet in the last 5 years just regular maintenance. The answer is yes a Nissan truck is a better buy. Glad I didnt choose the other brand that starts with a T and ends with an A!

  • Frontier is a great truck in the city! - 2011 Nissan Frontier

    IMO, full-size trucks have gotten too big. Lanes and parking spaces certainly arent getting any bigger and the Frontier Crew Cab is the perfect size for getting around. Pile in 3 or 4 buddies in the cab and throw the gear in the back and youre in a highly capable truck. Tow ably and tear it up off-road while still being able to squeeze through parking garages and fit into small parking spaces. It really is the best of both worlds in many ways. And its more fun to drive and even more burly sounding than the more expensive Tacoma. Now if only the Frontier could get significantly better gas mileage than the full-size pickups...
