Loved the truck, the mpg was lower than the 2009 model I had and didn't have the same getup and gone. Got in an accident and learned my lesson. Hit a k-rail going 60mph near dead on and lost the front left wheel yet only the side curtain airbag on the passenger side went off!!! made no since as I didn't have a passenger in the passenger seat.

I bought the truck in October 2017. The choice, at the time, was Toyota, or Colorado. Both were about $7000.00 to $8000.00 higher. I was impressed by the ride and the towing capacity. I tow a 5X10 trailer with an ATV on it and do surveying on jobs all over Texas. Recently I retired and have 130,000 mi on it ( mostly in the 1st three years) and other than tires, I have had to replace two light bulbs on it. It drives as good as it did new and still gets around 20mpg on the highway. It is surprisingly tough as I have had to take it off road many times. No regrets.

My 2017 Nissan Frontier is a great truck. The new 2022 design is a mistake, just like the 22 Pathfinder. Too mich fluff, useability not enough.

Bought truck new in August of 2017. This is my second Frontier. I like the vehicle a great deal. I've had no problems with it, it's comfortable to drive, has plenty of power, tow a trailer well. The only thing I'd improve on, is the hard steering, turning radius.
