1986 Nissan 720 Pickup King Cab review from North America
"A great truck, whether it is your first or fifth."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The third cylinder lost compression at about 100,000 miles; the engine was rebuilt.
The edge of the driver's seat wore quickly as it became a daily driver.
Front wheel bearings have been repacked twice.
General comments?
This is a great truck for hauling light loads.
Can be fast enough to have some fun with on the streets, but only on occasion.
Stock, it is a surprisingly formidable four-wheeler, but when you put larger tires on it (235's), it is pretty nice.
Handles really well on the street.
After the enging was rebuilt, it ran like a dream.
