Just MY opinions on why I think the Frontier is better than the Tacoma. Again, some of this is subjective so don’t take it personal. Both trucks are awesome and they both have their pros and cons, but this is just explaining why I chose the Frontier over the Tacoma.

    Incoming hate comments from Tacoma bois… But seriously I love the Tacoma so chill, just watch the entire video before you comment

    Nissan hit it out of the park with these given the times. Kept the NA V6, hydraulic steering, no turbos and truck simplicity. These things also feel tanky and tough.

    I’m a Toyota guy myself. 4 MR2, Supra, and LX470 that I wheeled the hell out of. I’m about 6 months in on my Pro4x and it’s been a dream.
  • As a Toyota tech. I will 100% take the new updated titan and frontier over the Tacoma and tundra. Nissan gets a bad rep because of their passenger cars. Their sports cars and trucks are amazing. You can find 2023 titan Pro4x with 5K miles rn for 45k in Alabama and a few other places I saw similar listing. The frontier is the perfect balance between new tech and old school rugged traditional style trucks. The VQ engine has been around since 2002 in the pathfinder, very refined engine. I will be looking to grab a black Pro4x with leather interior for 35k with under 50k miles soon. Toyota messed up really bad and this is Nissan’s opportunity to pounce, if I was Nissan I would put an updated back up camera in the frontier, add a halo type trim(maybe make the frontier warrior concept they released a few years back. I mean hell bring back the manual trans.

    Price, ease of financing, and lots of unwanted ones sitting on lots. The end, saved everyone some time
  • @burner929
    Dude you might have saved me from a 10k mistake. The SR5 Tacoma is 45k in my area, that beautiful Frontier is 47 fully loaded. I think I’m going to be saving $10,000 and getting a frontier. update I bought the Frontier.

    2022 Frontier owner here. My 4x4 crew cab has 43,000 trouble free miles on it. I love the traditional v6 power, smooth 9 speed, superior on road drivability as well. Most of all though, it's a traditional truck. Love the truck feel it has. It's everything I want and need in a truck. congratulations on your Frontier.
  • @PrepperDawg
    Still driving a 2004 Tacoma TRD Off-Road here. 255,000 miles and still runs good. Good video, if buying a brand new, I would take a hard look and test drive that Frontier. I like that it still has naturally aspirated V6.

    I wish Nissan would bring the XTerra back on the Frontier platform I’ve had 2. 2002 base model 2015 Pro 4X These trucks are solid. Would buy a third in a heartbeat. Reliable Who wants space shuttle technology in a truck🤢
  • @meme-bj1pe
    Watch out, those taco guys are gonna spit out their fruit flavored beer over this. Be careful out there.
  • @josephflynn9922
    Thanks for the video. As a former Xterra Pro4x owner myself, and now in a 2022 Frontier Pro4x (and also in Texas), it's great to see others having good experiences with the truck. So far, 20K miles on mine and no issues. Looking forward to getting back out to Big Bend myself.
  • @heberlara6079
    Beautiful truck man, I also loved the look on your previous video!
  • @leedavis03
    You’re on the money brotha! Also a longtime Toyota guy. Keep up the good work!
  • @SortaDopeIGuess
    Toyota and Lexus are chasing the computerized hybrid and turbo 4 cylinders bc of newer sr mgmt and it’s a cyclical profit cycle. If Nissan stays with the V6 and just refines - they could be the new Toyota Tacoma for newer buyers who just want reliability and best bang for the buck.
  • I have a 2024 Nissan Frontier Pro4x and it looks exactly like yours and I’m in love with it. It’s my first Nissan idk why I never gave them a chance along time ago. The seats are so comfortable, the interior and exterior looks great. The steering wheel doesn’t bother me at all it gives me the feel of a real truck. I’m adding stickers and decals on it to give it a retro vibe. It looks great and I’ve had people come up to me and compliment my Frontier because you hardly see the new models on the road. My already has 7,500 miles on it and I’ve haven’t had any issues with it runs like a gem. (: I’m very satisfied with it and I also choose the Frontier over the 2024 Tacoma.
  • @jtac8141
    Great review! Been a Frontier fan for years even though I’ve never owned one…had several friends in Utah that would run circles around us in theirs. Those things were indestructible and could go anywhere
  • @Mason-fv1zl
    My very first truck was a 2014 Nissan frontier I had about 131,000 miles on that truck. It had zero problems and I’ve owned it for five years, and I just wanted something a little different so I got a Tacoma, because of the modifications that you could do to It there’s definitely a good amount of modifications that you could do to the frontier which I did. both trucks are my favorite but honestly the Nissan frontier was a really solid truck and people don’t want to believe it sucks for them. 😂
  • I like these frontiers too. I got to do production for the Nissan booth at the Texas state fair last year and I got to drive the same frontiers. Not far but still liked it very much. We've also come from a Toyota background. We have had the Tacoma with crawl control and 4x4 4runner.
