2001 Nissan Frontier XE review from North America

Absolutely nothing has gone wrong with this truck, granted it has only been 25,000 miles. I am not exactly easy on vehicles, and this truck has shown no signs of wear at all with a hard truck workout of 25,000 miles.

This truck never ceases to amaze me: I have taken it through mud off-road that my father's full size GMC would not go through, I have towed things far in excess of its towing capacity without problems (ie towing a Dodge Caravan), and I constantly load it down traveling back and forth from college without trouble. This truck has more than exceeded my expectations.

The 2.4 is torquey, but not real powerful. It'll outdo any other small truck with a 4 cylinder (I know, I drove them all), but you aren't going to win a race against a Camaro or something.

Everything about the truck is right on the money. My only real complaint is that it has a bit of a crosswind issue when traveling 65mph+ on the highway. By the way, this truck is amazing on the highway, it cruises at about 3,000rpms with an auto at 85mph, while 100mph doesn't require that many more revs.

Nice truck, can't go wrong. Tough and practical, this truck gets the job done while achieving 26mpg on average.
