What Owners are Saying About the 2005 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab

"First pickup truck: couldn't be happier."

"I bought one of the first 2020 Frontiers in NM. I got the Crew Cab SV 4X4 Value Package Special Edition. I traded my Subaru Forester in because I wanted more off-road torque. There was a lot to read about the "old truck" with a new engine and tranny. I don't like driver aids or touch screens. I teach motorcycle riding and am very aware that most drivers use those big screens too much and ignore the nanny aides and are just poor drivers. I wanted a vehicle with LESS electronic stuff to break. The truck drives just fine for a truck. Everything is easy to use and see. My mileage is about 21mpg. I think that the professional reviews I read before buying were spot on. I got what I expected and am very happy. I use my Harley as my primary vehicle and the truck for groceries and the joy of off-roading. I expect this truck to last 20 years."

"have owned seven pickups,this is the best ever"

"Value wise, can't be beat.After two and a half years is still vaued at what I paid for it. I could sell it easily in one day, if I wished."

"Great Truck should have got the 6 ft bed however"

"Only have one suggestion regarding this truck. In my 54 years of driving I never had this problem before. Twice my right foot hit the brake and gas pedal at the same time causing the vehicle to go forward. Think the pedals need to off set and a little farther apart. Other than that it is a great truck, just wish I had purchased the 6 ft bed, because I like to sleep in the back when camping. Currently I only have 1000 miles on the truck because of Covid 19, but looking forward to many more."
