05 Nissan Frontier

I sorta like this truck. It has 265 hp/ 284 lb-ft of torque. And this is from a 4.0 VQ40 V6 engine with DOHC. I know this is a Ford truck site. But for you un-biased people out there, I know there's bound to be a couple of you out there somewhere. What do you think of this truck? Please, no flames.

I haven't seen it yet, but will look for it.

Although...un-biased? here? and no flames? I think you've started digging yourself a hole here...want me to take that shovel?

If I wanted an ugly truck, I'd buy a Colorado.

Some of the olders ones....not too old....look good. The newer models seem to be going for that Titan look, which is not a good sign. Some of the ones I've seen are supercharged too.

I think the Colorado looks a Lot better than that Mini-titan. I see why Nissan's having a hard time selling these things..

The latest supercharged v6 in the current Frontier can't even compare powerwise to the 05's N/A 4.0L v6. And it offers a 6-speed tranny, and an active brake limited-slip diff. I think a King Cab 05' 4x4 Frontier with the NISMO Off Road package, 4.0L v6, 6-speed, with limited slip, all the standard features, and floormats, etc., is priced around $24,500. Nissan says this truck is way bigger than the last Frontier. It's got my attention.

How could they be selling them this early? The new Frontier doesn't even hit the dealer's lots until December! LOL. Gotcha!
