2008 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab User Reviews

Pros

Inexpensive compared to toyota, runs smooth

Cons

Gas mileage, but it's a mid-size truck. What do you want?

Great value for the buck. I have a manual, and shifts smoothly, I wanted the manual. It's kinda hard finding aftermarket parts for this vehicle, roof rack, tow kit, but no big deal. I don't even need a roof rack, just wanted it for the look. The interior is nice, the stock radio is a joke if you don't get the higher priced factory radio, but I changed it out with a kenwood. Run's smooth, no hesitation. No runs, drips, or errors with this vehicle. Like any vehicle, I just want the Japanese name behind it, but if one changes the oil and oil filter on a contant basis, the vehicle will run forever with no problems. The interior is nice, a little to much plastic, but that is nissan for you. I like the bed extender and the tie down cleats that come with the vehicle. All in all very good vehicle. Like I said, less expensive that the toyota tacoma which I looked at, but at 3,000-4,000 cheaper, no brainer....read morehide

Pros

This is a great Value truck... Look at Toyota, then look at the Nissan Truck its better!

Cons

Turning in to wide but worth it,givin the the trucks value & performance

I would say if your looking for a truck with the best value, this is the one! The price is the best & the dealer will work with you if it means they can steal a customer away from Toyota!

Pros

rated against ohter trucks? SUPERIOR!

Cons

I'm still looking.

This is one of many Nissans myself and family have owned. We are, to say the least, repeat customers. This truck is awesome, fun to drive, the sports car of trucks. It is agile, powerful, good looking, and well built. The ergonomics are first rate, the ride and seats are comfortable. Wow! And this is one fine off-road vehicle for a stock truck....read morehide

Pros

gas mileage for a truck, reliability, power, versatility

Cons

the crew cab bed is a little short, but the bed extender helps make up for it

This is my second Nissan truck. I put over 150,000 miles on my first Nissan truck and had absolutely zero problems with. This one promises to be equally reliable. The truck is fun to drive, extremely reliable and a great value. The V6 has more power than many American V8 trucks, and Nissan's customer service and value is better than Toyota's....read morehide

Pros

power, handling, looks, off-road ability, great fun to drive

Cons

turning radius?

Great truck! It's agile, powerful (particularly in V-6 form), has great torque, and is a lot of fun to drive. This truck is a blast in the dirt, sand, bring it on!

I ran my truck (yr-2008) through the car wash and it leaked at the back window!!! I took it back to the dealer and they said wait a year until a recall might be possible. I payed $27,000 and it leaks and they won't do anything to fix it. Get smart and go buy a TOYOTA. I wish I did.

Pros

Great running truck.very quiet and gas mileage decent around 17 city

Cons

Turning radius is wide and you have to allow for it.Key fob a joke allways hitting buttons

Compared to Toyota and others this is a great deal and you can work with the dealers. Toyota did not want to give me anything near what my trade was worth and I was treated very poorly. The Frontier has high ratings and I see why. It is smooth,quiet,strong and comfortable. You have to allow for the large turning radius which is just an inconvience not a problem. I am averging around 17 mpg around town with the a/c on most of the time.I will buy this truck model again down the road....read morehide

Pros

performance

Cons

none

strong truck, big engine and nice appearance in the inside, lots of space in the inside, widerer than other truck and it is 6 cilinder

Pros

Nice beefy truck for a " mid-size" I tow my 27' trailer with it and am still 2000 lbs. light.

Cons

It's a truck not a mini so I can't complain about gas it's the same as my town & country

Love Love it Love it !!! Although my wife calls it my "pretty boy truck", she likes it when we go camping. GET THE TOW PACKAGE . The only thing I'll add to this truck is an aftermarket sterio that plays mp3's... It's got the looks, the power and is a great solid truck without having to get into the tank size titans and such. GET THE 4 DOOR CREW CAB. My daughter who loves her mothers sports car SCION TC (great car also) now only wants to "take the truck".
My SE came with the bed extender LOVE IT; the spray on bed liner LOVE IT, and while the brakes can be touchy (speed adjusted brakes) the power curve on this thing is awsome LOVE IT !!! Just starting it up it sounds throaty but not loud going down the road. It drives as good as my T&C did which is saying something.
The only complaint is they cheap traded on the radio. It's 2007 any base model should at least play mp3's !!!
The price was good in so much that it's retaing value is better than most and is a worthwhile investment in the long run....read morehide
