Frontier XE

2007 Nissan Frontier XE 4dr King Cab 6.1 ft. SB (2.5L 4cyl 5M)

Review

I have owned an 03',an 05' and an 07'. All 3 were XE's. My 07' is a 4 cyl, 5 speed manual. This truck is by far the best ever. Rides like a real truck (full frame), pulls hills just fine.The 5 speed manual is perfect for this. anyone who has taken a trip with me complements the ride. Nissan has raised the bar. A 23mph average truck that can haul 1500 lbs up hills. You will not go wrong purchasing the truck.

Favorite Features

The manual tranny, and how quiet the ride.

Suggested Improvements

better seats. Each one I have owned has had the same problem. The seats are a little to narrow; like they were built for people under 5'10"

NISSAN NISMO ROCKS THE ROAD

Review

If you plan to drive your Nissan Nismo off road as it is intended as it is a 4x4 and Nismo is the off road version of the Frontier then before you go off road make sure you go to a 4x4 shop and have thick plastic cut out and put in the area by the back wheel well that sticks out!they have clear plastic there already for that purpose but it is not thick enough nor is it big enough! My Nismo has the rear locker and in 2 years I have never been stuck with the truck yet and this last winter just about wore my 3"x30'tow rope out by pulling everone else out from the record snow that we received! bought new tires and went with the General Grabber AT2 which will get you way more traction!

Favorite Features

4.0 has 265 hp general grabber at2 tires limited slip Dana rear end full locking Dana rear end spray in bedliner movable tie down system in the bed Amsoil in engine since new best tank of gas 22.3 m.p.g. at 65 m.p.g

Suggested Improvements

something for the rear wheel well protection so when you do go off road you do not get major paint damage as I now have!

2007 Nissan Frontier SE 4dr King Cab 6.1 ft. SB (4.0L 6cyl 5A)

Review

Looked at all small trucks and this was by far the best out there. Had for 2.5 years and never had any problems, even the mileage is better than I thought. Would buy again, but will be keeping this for years to come.

Favorite Features

Power, room, long bed fits just about anything.

Suggested Improvements

turning radius is like a schoolbus

Nissan Frontier crew cab

Written by: BobZ on 05/23/2009

Vehicle

2007 Nissan Frontier SE 4dr Crew Cab 4WD 6.1 ft. SB (4.0L 6cyl 5A)

Review

This is a very quiet truck, well made, excellent power, rides great, tows a 4000lb travel trailer very well. I recommend it. Nits and picks, turning radius is poor, radio has weird controls, edge of rear tail light not shielded from breakage if tail gate is down. broke it first load of long planks. You lose your traction control if you install aftermarket wheels and tires w/o tire pressure senors.

Favorite Features

power, ride, quiet, great seats.

Suggested Improvements

see nits above. Plus defroster slow to work in winter, does not throw heat till engine is fully up to temp. wrong priority..defrost should be first

Review

Ordered this 2dr Nismo after reading Edmunds 2006 review...rated Frontier as #1 and again in 2007. Super solid, crisp handling, fantastic acceleration, impossible to get stuck, comfortable ride...just one tough truck. This will be a keeper for a long,long time.

Favorite Features

Desert storm grey exterior, 6 sp manual, looks, ground clearance, ride, 2 tone seats, acceleration, construction

Suggested Improvements

Extend arm rest, sunroof for 2dr models

2007 Nissan Frontier LE 4dr Crew Cab 6.1 ft. SB (4.0L 6cyl 5A)

Review

Love this truck, 21 mpg is a joke unless you are driving Miss Daisy, expect 17-18 at best... Solid build minus the rattle that will never go away??... TIRE SENSOR OR TIRE?? Front tire increases and decreases pressure constantly, dealer can not find problem and the sensor comes on every day?? Very comfortable, roomy, and stylish.

Favorite Features

Power, size, ride, style, cup-holders, and comfort. Wife enjoys the SUV-like interior(crew cab LE), Enjoy running boards, sunroof, spray-in bed liner, and all the rails and tie-down options

Suggested Improvements

Fix tire sensor or the tires, arm rest, bought an LE with base features at top LE price, No radio controls on steering wheel, no leather seats, no premium sound or disc changer...fell in love too quickly and did not research features...Do Not Trust Dealers...they will tell you anything to get a sale

Powerful and Reliable

2007 Nissan Frontier SE 4dr Crew Cab 4WD 6.1 ft. SB (4.0L 6cyl 5A)

Review

I have had this truck for two years and use it for everything commuting, mountain biking, skiing etc. Lots of power, great on and off road handling, excellent on snow and ice. The crew cab long bed is perfect; I can fit a crew of 4 with 2 dogs and 4 mountain bikes and travel in comfort to far away destinations. I drove all the other crew cab trucks and it came down to the Frontier and the Tacoma, I am very pleased to have chosen the Frontier.

Favorite Features

Power, storage, utility and ride. Endless configurations/function.

Suggested Improvements

The long bed takes some maneuvering in tight spots--shorter turn radius would be nice. The SE should have heated mirrors and MP3 input.

Driving the Nismo

2007 Nissan Frontier Nismo 4dr King Cab 6.1 ft. SB (4.0L 6cyl 5A)

Review

I have owned my 2007 Frontier Nismo for a month now (purchased used). Fuel mileage is steady around 18mpg city. I have yet to take it on a trip along highways. It is a bit rougher ride than my neighbors 2006 Frontier XE due to the Nismo package. I would like to have his fuel economy but the towing capacity of mine will be handy with a boat and camper. The ride would be better with different tires. The electronic locking rear differential comes in handy when pulling a boat out of the water at the boat launch. Overall I would give this truck a well deserved A rating.

Favorite Features

Electronic locking rear differential. Interior space. Power. Quiet ride (for a truck).

Suggested Improvements

Auto headlights (make standard equipment). Auto door locks (when placed in drive). Move center arm rest forward.

I love this truck, my daughter calls it the goat. The gas mileage at 60 is 24 mpg and it rides very nice.I can't complain if anything its way over built. Power to spare and very roomy, great ergonomics.

Favorite Features

Stance and appearance tie down features and spray-in liner.

Suggested Improvements

Turning radius,slider for the back window. Front wind break for the roof rack like on the Xterra.
