Problem Vehicle
This is not a well built truck. I had 27 trips to the dealer for major repairs such as brakes, the ABS system failed twice, and I still have problems. Dealer support is almost non- exsistent, and contacting Nissan directly was useless.
Front Alignment and Fuel Usage Nightmare
Nissan should go back to the drawing board with this engine. Supercharger is good idea and helps make up for the wimpy-6. Really bad fuel economy - 16 city/20 hwy for a compact pickup. Have to align the front-end every 5,000 miles at $55 bucks a pop - one of the Nissan production techs told me this was a common problem with the "bigfoots" as he called it, referring to the large wheels and tires they put on the S/C models with no suspension modifications. Do not expect tires to last more than 25K mi.

Great Truck
I purchased my 01 4WD crew cab new in 4/01. I now have 33K miles on it and just now had my first problem. The driver's side front power window is getting stuck and will need to be repaired. Other than that, it's been running great and gets tons of compliments. Sound system is great. Handles snow good in 4WD, but poor in 2WD
Nissan Forever
I purchased my truck the first week the new body style hit the dealership. Nissan took a chance with this risky design and won by a mile. I owned a Toyota 4x4 before and thought I loved it until I got my Nissan. I have tested the limits of this truck and it has not failed to meet a challenge yet. The only visits have been for routine maitenance and the service dept has been great. I agree it could have more power without the supercharger since I pull a large boat, but as it is, it steps right up to the plate. I have become Nissan's best advertisement. If your are considering a Crew Cab Nissan, don't hesitate.
Frontier For A Frontiersman
As a former Nissan truck owner, I'm aware of it's strong value as a dependable, sturdy truck with very reasonable fuel economy. My new Frontier XE only reaffirms my belief in the Nissan line as it performs smoothly, rides better than any other truck I test drove and has the most appealing face of any truck on the market...as recognisable as many classics that it's sure to become.
