Nissan deserves a lot of credit for persevering in the full-size truck market. Their truck is on a par of features and performance with Ford, GM, and Ram. I love the 5.6L V8. 400 HP, 413 lb*ft of torque makes it competitive with any V8 out there. It's too bad that the 5.0L V8 Cummins diesel didn't catch on.

My 2022 Nissan owners manual says that the frontier pro 4X is rated at 6270 lb towing, so technically you were overloaded on the frontier. It did a phenomenal job!

How about a real mid-size tow challenge with the Ranger, Taco, Colorado, and Ridgeline. It would be a fun comparison with the new Frontier.

Nissan deserves more credit, im a Chevy guy who drives a NISSAN. I'll admit it had some growing pains, probably built on a Friday, but its a solid TRUCK and for what u get dollar wise, leather loaded around view monitor, you can't beat it.

If I was in the market for a mid-size, I think the frontier would be my pick. v6, no turbos and 9speed. Not a fan of the turbo engines and the Tacoma seems underwhelming.

Man Nissans 5.6 is extreme underrated. Powerful and sounds amazing

The one thing I like about both trucks....the tail lights. Both have depth and draw the eye towards them.

One of our parts guys at the Chevy dealership I work at bought a Pro-4X Titan after the transmission in his Silverado blew, the Titan is definitely an underrated truck

2019 Frontier vs 2022 Frontier; the goat 4.0L v6 vs the new 3.8L v6 !!!!!!!!!!!

The Titan is a good truck. I got to drive a family member’s 2005 Titan with the 5.6l engine and it felt so powerful. I love v8 engines!

Remember they didnt dwell on it, but this is a Pro4X, which is an offroad oriented trim. Pretty decent results for something not really set up for towing.

Personally owned 3 Titans just sold to purchase a 21 trd pro the Titan is way under appreciated the one i just sold had over 200k sold to a family member still running strong not one single problem not one oil leak my other one had 375,000 miles and was still running without any problems great trucks

Technically this is an Ike for the Titan and a super Ike for the Frontier isn’t it?

Excellent, have been waiting for this to air. Gives me some peace of mind regarding towing heavier loads on occasion with the new Frontier platform. Max I’ll be towing is around 5K so will have a comfortable margin. Ordered a Frontier a couple weeks ago and looking forward to it when it arrives once built and shipped.

Had two Frontier trucks loved them both! Good all around do anything vehicles.

I love my 2021 Titan S Base Model! I’ve basically turned it into a P4X minus the locker. Oh and you can install a tekonsha p3 brake controller in the frontier in about 5-10 min so not a big deal and it’s a better controller than most OEM

Great review. I appreciate the detail you guys put into the videos. The Frontier is pretty impressive. 👍🏻

I’ve had my 2019 PX4, I got it back in June, it only had 7k miles on it. I love it, has been great so far

The gauntlet are the best videos yall do! Great job Andre and Mr Truck

Ive towed a 1970 charger from Chicago to east TN, and it done great mines a green 22 frontier pro-x 2wd 5200 miles now.

Great review guys. Awesome details covered in this video. Finally, Tacoma have a true contender.

Hell yes, hell yes, hell yes... I have been waiting for a comparison like this. You rock TFL!

I honestly saw the new age titan as being the second best truck after the tundra and with the tundra loosing the V8 I can now say the Titan is my favorite truck now with ford being 3rd or 4th

I love this videos. I was in the market for the Frontier back when it first came out but once I got in it, it was quite small and cramped. So I ended up getting the Titan. Either way I love both trucks.

Guys, if I were there I would want to high five both of u! Great job. Well done Nissan. Looks like they are making a comeback.

I used to have a frontier. Loved it. Now i have a titan. Love it.

I understand this is about the Frontier but y’all continue to short change the Titan. Test it with the same 8100lbs you have been testing all the other half tons with.

Good to see Mr Truck again :o) All the best for the new year Y'all.

I pulled a heavy trailer over those same passes on I-70 with my 2020 with the 3.8 three times, including about two days before this. No issues.

That is pretty impressive for the Frontier. Of course probably would not want to do this daily but if there’s a need once in a while, that’s pretty darn good.

Love my new Titan XD and my 18 Armada too. I just wish that i had option to get front bench seat in pro4x trim. For me that was a must, so i got SV. Other things i had to have in a truck: v8, NO statr stop garbage, NO cylinder deactivation and NO premium fuel ($0.50 per gallon for no real benefit, NO thanks.)

I’ve said it before, but I would really love to see a comparison of the “old” Gen 2 Titan with the 7 speed vs the new Gen 2 Titan with the 9 speed (drag race and towing). Same with the Frontier, but the old 4.0 vs the new 3.8.

If i was gonna buy a midsize truck it would be the Frontier hands down.

I found in my Titans they didn’t have as much engine braking as you would expect but on the flip side, it seemed to rev up nearly as quickly as a Lexus LFA

I've had my 2022 pro 4x in tactical green for just over two months now. It's been dead reliable and Nissan seems to have amazing build quality. I am stepping up from a 2018 civic hatch so I was obviously expecting an increase in my spending on gas, but I've gotta say the Frontier has impressed me with its fuel economy. The best I've had it, while driving is 8.4 L/100km, and after a trip is 9.0 L/100km. I have also been able to get a projected fuel range of up to 760km from a tank. All in all very impressed and can't wait for the many years ahead with my Frontier!

I always enjoy riding along with Andre and Mr. Truck.

Best part of the Frontier is not having a turbo.

Dude, you never disappoint. Dude

325,000 miles on my Titan and still runs perfectly. I will look to the Frontier as my next truck. Nissan makes one of the best motors you can buy. You might get a nicer and maybe little more roomier interior out of Canyon or Colorado but this Frontier will out last any domestic truck by decades!!

I like the new Frontier. They didn't go crazy with the grill and some other things like others have. It performed well in this towing test.

When you're just maintaining 60 MPH and other traffic is blowing past you in the empty middle lane @16:30, that's your hint to GET OUT OF THE PASSING LANE.

Great video guys!

2020 Frontier Pro4x awesome old school look, with the new 3.8L v6, 9 speed sweet tranny, 5' bed, body graphics, roof rack, bilstein susp, leather seats, oh man an INSTANT classic when I got it. There are a few others out there but this one is mine! The midsize truck category has many fine entries in the field, and Nissan with the Frontier is a reliable, good looking, fun running, value proposition. Body on frame, a tough cookie, and a kick ass ride. Whats not to like?

Nissan motors always have a nice sound to them!

👍 My kind of test. THANK YOU

Andre you guys should start keep track of the 35mph to 60mph times for all the tests. I feel like this is very important for people that tow understanding a hard acceleration on a steep on ramp and how the truck handles it.

Oh I love it!!! Happy new year everyone!!!

Love my 2022 Tactical Green Frontier Pro4x

The Titan is a handsome truck!

I like that new frontier

The one thing Nissan has nailed down is trucks. Dang they make good trucks. Well, we also have a 07 Sentra with 230k miles on it, which I know it’s not the norm because never had issues with the engine or CVT.

great video Andre/Mr.Truck agreed the gauge cluster should tell you what gear your in at any time and the optional gauges could use numerals , that would not be a deal breaker for me, Andre you might find with that OBD tool TFL has you can get the gear indicator to show up possibly, lots of the European cars do it by scrolling to the menus to find it and option indicate it, i know this is a fleet vehicle from Nissan, awesome video and Titan5.6 V8 has the best engine note 🔥

Great to see Mr truck back !

First of I like all your test videos, real world testing, not just some dude in shorts driving around the block and giving it a doug score. I bought the Frontier SV model with the convenience/tow package and wonder why Nissan didn’t include a brake controller either. I will have to buy a Prodigy brake controller since I plan on pulling a 3500 lb camper with it. I previously owned a ‘09 Frontier since new and have no doubt I will keep my ‘22 for 10 years or more as well. I like the comfortable seats, the handling and ride and the heated seats and steering wheel. The thing I don’t like is Nissan deleted the cargo channels on the bottom of the bed, I used them all the time to strap down lumber to. No other manufacturer had these as far as I know. Also the control switches on the lower left side are too far down to see, if Nissan raised the display panel about 2 inches they could relocate the switches below the panel. It would be an even better truck!

I own a 2020 Nissan Altima SV with 60k miles and a 19 Honda Pilot with 30k miles, both vehicles have been amazing. I am seriously considering the Ridgeline or the Frontier to add to our fleet. This is a great video.

I have a 2006 Frontier and have no problem towing 6800 pounds takes all of it and ask for more

Still loving my 2021 Nissan Titan Pro4x.

Mr T,take me to the moon..happy NewYear Mr T and Mr Smirnov..xx

I know it'd be a lot if extra work but I'd love to see an extra run up and down the mountain the way most of us watching would really drive. Mainly by shifting gears manually up and down. It'd slow what the truck is truly capable of rather than what it's programmed to do. Most viewers here are smart enough to know the difference and it wouldn't confuse us. If anything it'd help us by showing proper towing tips rather than just hoping the manufacturer did it right. Add it in to the Super Ike maybe if not all test.

You said stop! Haha, thanks for the video!

I paid 49k for my 21 pro4x Titan and it’s dealer price was only 52990 so prior to Covid this was the cheapest set of trucks to buy on the market but nicest interior outside of a ram or updated ford

Great video as always! I think an interesting matchup would be a brand new manual Tacoma vs a New Manual gladiator!!! I’m sure we would all love to see how manuals handle the Ike!! Keep up the great work TFL!

Glad to see Mr. Truck!

I had 2 frontier's and loved them both. I had hoped they would bring the deisel version because I use my truck to tow my campers. I finally went with a Colorado with the 2.8 DURAMAX and couldn't be happier.

love the quantitative score for the Ike runs!

I have a brand new FrontierPro4X and I love it's tow haul mode! Way better than my 2015 Titan. But it's not even close in the seat of the pants acceleration from a dig.

I'm not surprised by that score I was hoping for better but it still my top pick

You guys have some really good videos. I would like to see you do one with the Chevy Colorado, ford ranger and the Toyota Tacoma.

Out of all of your videos, the Ike’s are my favorite.

If the armada gets the 9 speed you guys need to retest with the previous weights on the old armada Ike!

I love the both of these tuck

I’ve seen a few of these and Andre always seems to add more words than necessary when signaling to stop the timer lol.

Dodge, we need a Dakota with a V8 again. I have an 02 with the 5.9, just waiting for them come out with a new one! That gladiator is selling really well, that platform would suit the Dakotas return. 👀

Nissan makes underrated trucks

As a 2011 Frontier Pro4x owner in CO, I really wish Nissan had a factory tow pkg option with a brake controller. Even at a premium, I would rather have that installed and warranty then have U-Haul do it. And they are the other 3rd-party I could find.

This new frontier is a game changer. Always the cheaper choice in the midsize market but great value. Now up there in performance and looks as well. Maybe eat up more tacoma market. Absolutely more reliable than the GM and Ford competitors. Gladiator is a niche truck style. So it’s basically the frontier vs the Tacoma in the consumers eyes if looking for this midsize truck in USA 2022

That sports bar on both are great for looks.

Really considering a frontier. Looking between that and the ranger, but I may hold out until I see the 2023 models, I hear lots of great things coming

i enjoy the nissan love recently.

Was looking forward to this. Sadly the sound test was not as I expected after the last test you had with the sound. It was very quiet! But it´s a nice roar. You should´ve tested it without full throttle like you did with the Titan. Too bad there was never a test with the updated NV.

The Titan is a very underrated truck.

In South Africa we get the Frontier as the Navara with a 2.5L Inline 4, it's a great pick up but it's no V6

Well, the towing capacity is exceeded on the frontier. The pro-4x towing capacity is only 6,300 lbs not 6,700 lbs 😳

Good to see ol kent back. Heavy duty reviewer.

Aftermarket brake controller takes 10 minutes to install, is better and cheaper. If you're not a fat ass, hooking up the chains is a non-issue.

Owned a 19 Tacoma. It was a good truck but a rough ride. It was like drving a brick. Upgraded too the 22 frontier pro4x about 4 months ago. Love it. It rides better. Tech is way better. Haven't towed with it yet (hitch was on backorder, just got it) but I feel it'll do alright considering what I tow. It gets better mileage too.

At 10:52 you meant “Frontier” and not “Titan”, I’m guessing… Great video!

The biggest problem Nissan has isn’t its style at least on the frontier that is or its reputation, it’s the marketing. There simply isn’t any. As a result, there is no mindset in the consumer as to what the frontier represents. It is by far a much more superior truck, than the Tacoma. And now that the Tacoma has given up the V6 and gone with much more complicated, twin, turbo four-cylinder, the Nissan frontier has a golden opportunity in terms of marketing with it normally aspirated V6. The advertisement opportunities are endless and priceless. I hope Nissan does something with this.

Wonder how an old 3/4 ton Ford with the 300 in-line six cylinder would do? Anyway good review I like your shows

Do you have a website that shows where this truck compares to the others that you've tested?

I like the wide tires on this pro4x Frontier. Makes the truck look beefier.

After 7 new Dodge/Rams since 2007, 4 of them 2500 4x4/Cummins I traded my 2018 2500/Cummins for a Tactical green 4x4 SV with convience and tech group. I have 2750 miles on my new Datsun and it is in the shop with issues. The cloth on the front seat has separated from the seat bottom. The rep looked at it on 01/12/22 and approved a new seat.The seat has a slight rock from the play in the electric adjuster linkage. The transmission has surging issues ever since they idled it up to eliminate the rattle/harmonic vibtration in the sheet metal on the engine with 300 miles on it and something is not jiving, Idon't know maybe it is the throttle body thing communicating with the transmission that it is time to go and it means quick.And that is when a Tervis tumbler of water or whatever it has in it pours all over your center console. The dealer has had me in a rental Rouge since the rep looked at my truck and a rep from the factory has called me on 01/13 and on 01/14. As far as design flawsgo the center console has about as much use as a bread box turned on end , the cup holders will not hold anything unless it is 3 3/8 in diameter and straight sided. The bluetooth dies when you parlk and kill the ignition. If you are on an important phone call and need to finish before switching to your handset, which is not seamless at all then you must finish with the engine running. Nissan took until 2022 to invent the gas powered cell phone, I am sure the Climate Change crowd is going to love that one. The popups that remind you to increase the volume on your connected device and the one that reminds you that"your call history has been updated" are so old at 2700 miles I can't even imagine keeping this truck for that reason alone.They hang on screen for 4 to 5 seconds. I didn't enter into my blue tooth to read, I did it to make a call. Why don't any of you reviewers point out these real world consumer tips. Their is a lot to love about this truck but if you are a dyed in the wool truck buyer like me then these are far more important than the remodel they put on the gen II. I bought this as my retirement vehicle as I am 62yo and chose this truck based on my families good history with the brand. This is my first new Nissan and my first small truck in 45 years.

I can understand docking points for the safety chain hook being so hard to get to. I can also understand docking for not having a brake controller. But I don't agree with docking cause it didn't grow. It's supposed to be midsize,not full sized.

I wondered who kept tailgating you in the FJ. Sometimes I amaze myself.

Thanks Mr truck Andre

Glad to see they’re actually trying to market the Frontier. When’s the last time you’ve seen a Titan commercial? And have you EVER seen an XD ad?

With the way gas prices are going id say midsize. The midsizers can tow what the old 2005 V8’s could tow all while getting better MPG. The midsizers are pretty comfortable places to be in unless your big/tall/or overweight.

That titan sounds good lol

"stopping the clock annnd now"... "I stopped the clock when you said stop". Same thing happened last time with Nathan.

Favorite truck from TFL Truck has been Big Green.
