Lots of people have checked out my previous video that I did a couple of months after getting my 2023 Nissan Frontier and the main comment/concern I got on that video was "you only have 2500 miles on the truck so it's not really long term yet."
So, in this video, I've now had the truck for about 6-7 months and I've taken it on a 2 week overlanding trip through the Wyoming back country, multiple trips through Wisconsin, the upper peninsula of Michigan, and all over the midwest.
I've shaken out a few bugs and I've been able to determine some other things I really like about the truck and some of the quirks that were either concerning or I don't like about the truck.
I'm adding a ton of chapters into this video so you can pick and choose what parts you want to hear about and I've added in links to other helpful videos I've made over the last 6 months or so that may be helpful if you're considering buying a Frontier, or if you own one and have questions.
If you want to see more 3rd Gen Frontier content from helpful vids to modifications I've made, here's the full playlist of all that: • 3rd Gen Nissan Frontie...

Im a Toyota fan...but really a 4Runner fan boy and just bought a new '23 last year. Im not at all thrilled with turbo charged 4's in the Tacoma, Colorado and the future 4Runner. More complexity, more problems, more cost. The Frontier is an awesome truck and the discounts on them now are incredible....its not difficult to find a 16% discount currently. Retaining the proven V6 is a deciding factor over the competition for sure. Your insight is valuable and thank you for sharing!

I bought an original 1986.5 Hardbody 4x4, manual transmission, loaded and brand new that first model year back in 1986 for $18,000. 140-hp V6. It was a fantastic truck. Now for my sixty-fifth birthday I treated myself to a low mileage Nissan certified pre-owned 2022 4x4 Frontier. I absolutely love it, and all the new features and improvements, and that 310 HP isn't so bad either.

@@diulaylomochohai the biggest thing was warped brake rotors and a caliper hanging up by 6000 miles. The truck started pulling to one side and the rotors started pulsating. They didn't seem to take my concerns about it seriously, said that they would order rotors for it and call me back but wouldn't listen that I felt like a caliper was hanging up intermittently. They never did call me back but I didn't trust them to take care of the problem correctly anyways so I went ahead and put extreme duty rotors and pads on it myself and inspected and serviced the calipers, that way I knew it was done right. They had already botched one of my "free oil changes" by leaving oil all over the bottom of it and by the time i got it home, i could smell oil burning off of the exhaust. If I've got to crawl under it, clean it off and remove the inspection cover and make sure that the oil filter is tight and not leaking, what do I really need them for to begin with?

I bought a new 2022 SV 4x4 fully loaded and love it. Had a few issues, but, what first year model of any vehicle doesn't have some issues. Thankfully, the dealership I purchased it from has a fantastic service department and corrected everything promptly. I'm so relieved you didn't complin about hoe "HARD" the steering is. I'll be 64 in three weeks and took my drivers test in 1976 in a truck with three on the tree, manual brakes and manual steering, now that was hard steering. Too many people have become spoiled with the electronic steering. I prefer power steering over electronic steering as I feel power steering gives me more awareness of the terrain.

@@bcw686 well, I know for a fact that a lot of the previous generation frontiers and Xterras are still running around with two or 300,000 miles. I personally have a 2008 frontier in my driveway with 218,000 miles that while needing some stuff, maintenance wise still runs like a champ engine and transmission wise. My Xterra had 150,000 miles and ran like brand new when I traded it for my frontier. Historically people would argue that the Tacomas are slightly more reliable but my question is, is it worth the significant markup to get something that’s just slightly more reliable than a frontier? I don’t think so, personally. Especially when buying used.

I love my ‘23 P4X! Had her since November 2022. It does great off-road (beach, trails, snow covered beach, etc), very comfortable highway cruiser (she’s doing her second Key West trip soon), and pretty good on gas too. It has all the features I want at the right price, comparatively speaking. One feature it’s missing is lane keep assist/lane centering…I know that’s due to its hydraulic steering. The cruise control issue is not a big deal for me. I chose her for a few reasons…1) best looking midsize truck. 2) relative mechanical simplicity, no turbos etc. 3) it has the features comfort I was looking for.

I love my 23 PRO4X luxury. I have about 8000 miles on mine and you hit the nail on the head, when I first got it it was shifting weird but that all smoothed out. I was told by the dealer the tranny needs to learn the driver. Here in Canada if you want the Fender, leather and the sunroof on the PRO4X, you have to go luxury. They all come as a package, I’m surprised it’s not like that in the US as the truck is built in Tennessee. The Pro4X luxury or not only comes in the 5 foot bed if you want the 6 foot you have to go to the SV. The SV no Bilstien a lower ground clearance, no skids, no locking diff, no fender/sub.

Came across your video looking at reviews for the Frontier. I think it's what I'm going to go with in the near future. I currently have a 2010 Ram that doesn't really meet my needs anymore. I've narrowed it down to the Frontier or Ford Maverick, as I'm not impressed with the Ford Ranger or Chevy Colorado, and Toyotas in general due to their dealerships. I think an SV Frontier would be great because it's smaller but not compact like the Maverick, and I could still tow some things if I wanted to. I wish the MPGs were a little higher but it's a pickup at the end of the day. This was a very helpful review!

I love my '23 P4X. Only complaint is I wish Nissan would do a telescoping steering column. It tilts (which is good) and I'm comfortable in it but I think a telescoping steering would be more comfortable for more people. Nissan is like that. My 2018 370Z didn't have this feature either. As far as the steering, I love the heavier feel of their hydraulic system. It inspires confidence in most driving situations and I have no problem whipping it into tight spots.

I have the 23 SV long bed 4x4, love the truck, just trying to get it set up. Got the RC Killa installed ( if you don’t have the factory Bilstein in the Pro 4x , you need to get ODO Koni or Bilstein shocks for the SV). About to upgrade tires. What tire size are you using?? Your truck looks great

Thanks a lot and congrats on your SV! I've got the RC Killa and the Pro-4X Bilsteins. Planning to run those until the leafs flatten and the shocks get pretty worn and then I'll either upgrade to the Koni's are maybe just redo the whole suspension with ADO/Fox stuff at that point. I'm running Kenda Klever RT's in 285/70R17 and I love them. I've had them on my last few trucks and they're a great hybrid tire that's pretty quiet on road and excellent offroad and in all weather conditions. They're also pretty reasonable, price wise. Hope that helps!

I do have dreams of overlanding on the weekends while being my daily driver on the weekdays. The only gripe I have is I take my time getting out + being a larger person (are we allowed to say what we are lol?) and end up 'sitting' on the seat controls so I end up having the seat go flat, and other "me" issues (being a larger person + CCW setup = a bit harder trying to get to seatbelt/scuffs, etc).

Just one thing to think of when buying any car/truck these days.

You mentioned in your video that if your tail gate is down, it will beep at you when you're backing up and apply your breaks. You mentioned that you can disable the breaks if you push the "P" button. My Ford F150 drives me nuts when backing up my boat with my tailgate down. My truck does not apply the breaks, but beeps at me very loudly. I can't disable the beeping, especially if someone is trying to talk to me from the outside. So does that "P" button on your dash also disable the beeper?

I found that to be amazing in Oklahoma.

I just traded my 19' f150 2wd powerstroke in on a new 24' nissan frontier pro 4x. I miss the the room I had in the f150, as it turns out I miss the towing ability too. I knew I'd l miss these things. I have a one man lawn mowing hustle, 6x10 utility trailer, 2' sides and drop down gate, with zero turn, push mower, weed eater and blower. I will say I drive the truck more for other reasons than the little bit I use it for the mowing hustle. This is the truck I'll retire with. I've owned lots of trucks big and small. Years ago I owned a 92' chevy S-10 Tahoe 4.3 V6. All I can say is WOW! Manufacturers have come a long way with power! This engine, transmission, styling, tech and comfort are spot on! I do not like the nanny's. I suppose it's nice to be able to push a button and disable some of them. It drove me nuts the first time i hooked up my trailer and tried backing up...frontier slammed on the brakes and stopped me dead in my tracks. I thought that I had it figured out by disabling emergency braking in vehicle settings but then sadly mistaken by default it came back on when i shut vehicle off and turned it back on. Only thing so far that has me a little frustrated is a noise coming from the rear of the vehicle when I take off from a stop sometimes. Sounds like something is loose, or squeaky. I'll be getting under the truck to inspect once weather is better.

It kind of depends on what you want. I've seen a lot of trucks with the 6" lift which seems like a lot on these trucks (could cause driveline problems and other issues). There's also a lot more cutting to do to run 35's on the 6" lift which kind of seems to be the point of the larger lift. I personally have a 2nd gen Frontier with a Titan swap, 4" lift and 35" tires so when I bought this truck, I wanted to keep it a bit more mild so I didn't have to chop up the truck or do extensive mods. Reliability and simplicity were my goals so I went with the smaller lift and 33's. Again, just depends on your goals!

I personally do prefer the cloth seats over the leather seats for a few reasons. To get the leather, you have to opt for the (I think it's called) comfort package which is about $2750 and includes sunroof and some other options (been a year since I bought the truck so I may be off on that, but that's what I remember). To me, it wasn't worth that additional cost for those things. Also, I've seen some evidence that the leather seats (most of which are actually vinyl) are showing wear way worse than the cloth seats. Then lastly, since you can get heated cloth seats, that was the primary thing I wanted, living in the midwest. Hope that helps!

I love my Pro4x. I was bummed it only came with the 5' bed, but I understand that the longer bed negatively impacts the entry and exit angles, and this is geared more towards the off road life. Yes, the turning radius is large, but you get used to that fairly quickly. The steering is much stiffer than the Toyota, but I like that. The Toyota has electronic steering. I test drove the Toyota, then immediately test drove the Nissan. The Toyota felt much more impacted by outside steering influences, where the Nissan felt much more stable. The interior of the Toyota also felt super dated. I got the Nissan fully loaded and was out the door at 50k, and that was with a 10 year, unlimited, bumper to bumper warranty. I would have added another 5k at least with the Toyota, with no warranty. Lastly, the Toyota came with a lift over standard, whereas the Nissan didn't. That said, they have the same exact clearance, so if you do put a lift on the Nissan, you will have more clearance than the Toyota. In all, I think I made the right choice for me.

The 33 inch tires dropped me down several MPG so if you keep stock tires, then you should be able to get better but when I drove it out to Wyoming I was on an all dogs RC killa lift with the stock tires and I was getting about 18 to 19 (actual, dash was saying 21ish).

Thanks for the info! I’m looking to buy a 3rd Gen Frontier. I may even purchase a low mileage 2022. Are there any significant changes from the 22 to the 23? Thanks for your help!

No problem! They are great trucks. I don’t believe there are significant changes from 22 to 23 but one thing that is kind of a downgrade in my opinion is that you get the auto start stop in some of the later 2023 models which you don’t get in a 2022 so if you don’t like that feature a 2022 may be a better choice.

It's still a mid-size truck and the dimensions are very similar to the second gen. I feel like the front seats are pretty roomy and super comfortable, but the back seat is pretty cramped if you're putting adults back there. By the 2024 old school do you mean the Hardbody edition? I like it, but I personally wouldn't pay the extra cash for the mostly appearance package. But they are cool and I like that Nissan did it!

I'm getting ready to shoot an "updated walkaround" in the next couple of weeks to really bring everybody up to date on where the truck sits right now. With the suspension, I modified it with the All Dogs Offroad RC Killa kit and a longer shackle in the rear about a year ago with 2K miles on the truck and haven't changed it. I did put 33's on later last year so that may be the biggest difference since the original video. Those definitely changed the look and actually raised the truck up a bit!

I like the modular functionality. I needed an everything truck, so i got the SV 6’ bed, crew cab, tow package, 4x4. Love it- i was worried that it doesn’t beep backing up as i didnt opt for that option, after watching ur video im glad i skipped it. I dont want auto braking, lane assist screaming, or adaptive help oversight. My wife’s tesla Y is like that, and will brake on hwy speeds to correct, which is wicked dangerous. I got a stock audio- the 6 speakers is fine, even in crew cab setting its small spaced enough that it will bleed ears. I looked at tacoma also; the frontier kills it on all comparisons and is actually more comfortable. I like how it drives, tight and quick. Turn radius is wide and lacking but It drives like a truck, but still better than anything else i’ve ever trucked. If u want a comfort ride- get a car or suv. The seats are so damn good! And my wife even waz like wow w/ test drive.
