1994 Nissan D21 Pickup EX review from North America
"By far the best value of any car I've driven"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It got totaled in 1998, and the engine still ran after hitting a Honda at 45mph, so most of the front end comes from a 95 model.
Replaced the alternator at 150,000
The starter has been going for the past year.
Muffler is broke after the catalytic converter, needs replacing.
Replaced the right front drum at 120,000
Positive tow (whatever that means, all I know is it pulls to the right) since accident.
General comments?
My 11 yr old truck has out lasted both of my parents Fords a 95 Ranger, and 98 Mustang. The first year I owned it I worked at a ski resort where it got to -60 F. I never had a problem with it, added snow chains and it could hang with much pricier 4x4s. Then Florida in the summer, I did this for 2 yrs, and NEVER hand any problems with my truck!!!
The interior is fairly noisy, due to it being totaled, but it runs like the day I drove it home from the dealer.
