I was a Toyota fan for more than 20 years and owned Tacoma and Tundra until this year. My 2007 Tundra SR5 access cab was still running well but now that I am 75 years old I wanted more safety such as lane assist etc. I also wanted a truck my Wife would be comfortable driving and the Tundra was too big for her. I drove all the mid-size trucks including the Frontier and it was OK but the steering was very heavy and it didn't "wow" us at all. I bought a Honda Ridgeline Black Edition because my Wife and I did get the "wow" we wanted with safety and comfort. We don't really need a truck’s truck at our age. I never thought I would want a mid-size and definitely a Honda Ridgeline but perspectives change as you get older.

Toyota made a mistake when they discontinued the V6 Tacoma in 2024. The new 2.4L turbo gets the same gas mileage as the V6 and Toyota significantly bumped up the base price of the 2024 model. Frontier is looking like a better option now.

2006 frontier king cab 2WD 6 foot bed 4.0 automatic 130,000 miles bought new strictly street truck changed oil every 5000 miles. Broke bushing on shift lever under console, carrier Bering and front u joint , bad electrical connection on circuitboard in main fuse box under hood, 1 coil pack . I still own and drive the truck daily and would buy another. I think I paid $18,000 for it new.

I'm on my 3rd pro-4x. I've used all of them as work trucks for my construction business. They are often loaded near max gvwr and towing a 2000lb trailer. I know I should probably use a 1/2 ton full size, but I prefer a smaller truck. I haven't had any issues with any of them, and I hope my 2024 will be the same. So far so good.

After 30 years of owning five Chevy midsize trucks, I researched and test drove a bunch of midsize trucks last year and bought the 2023 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X.This has got to be the best driving and most comfortable midsize truck I ever owned. I love the seat comfort, hydraulic steering, the analog gauges mixed with the digital screen and real knobs of the dash, and the Price! I was just blown away with the options that I got in this truck for the money as compared to the other manufacture's trucks. And, it has a V6 Engine that is Great! No turbo.

I'm blessed to own a few vehicles, two Toyota cars and one Nissan truck. Although I'm a Yota fan hands down Nissan builds robust trucks. Nissan produced the D40 for almost 14 years but it wasn't popular because it was viewed as ugly and outdated. Now with most auto makers going to turbo 4cyl, ugly and outdated is getting viewed as dependable and simple. If Nissan can keep up what they've been doing then in time they will come out on top. IMHO if you change your fluids on time and add a diff breather the current generation Frontier will out last the new Tacoma.

Anything that is subjective or opinion based can vary too much. Facts are facts and indisputable. Once someone knows that they can then uses those facts to see what vehicles fit thier needs and then test drive them and figure out rhe opinion based stuff for themselves without any bias.

you could just get a pro 4X axle from a yard and have it installed . I'm sure it's just a 12-volt relay and switch to control it. you can also buy the electronic locking differential itself and have it installed into your axle. I suspect both those options would be less expensive than trying to get one from Canada. Yes, I too would be in the market if they had a pro 4X extended cab without the hassles.

@@raymondabella4684 The cameras in the frontier are not known for their quality so unless you actually will offroad it then maybe not a huge loss. Led lights are easy enough to install. The only other option that fits the bill is to get a previous gen ranger. They still had them in 6ft beds and with option electronic locker. Its 2.3 is known to be reliable even though its a turbo, better camera, better infotainment system in my opinion, and you can buy a ford extended warranty online typically for less than $2k that extends out to 7 years from the date of manufacture. So is you had a 2022-23 thats still a pretty good margin. Can find those in more luxury trims like xlt /lariat I believe and since a year or two old you don't get hit with the immediate depreciation. Something to consider.
