2006 Nissan Frontier SE review from North America
"Best truck on the market"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have only owned this truck for a short time and so far nothing has gone wrong.
General comments?
Many great things about this truck.
265 HP out of the 4.0 V6 is awesome. Truck has all the power that I need and then some. Transmission shifts smooth.
From the cockpit, every thing is very easy to reach. The cup holders are in a great location, guages are easy to read, A/C controls right there. My Dakota was not very user friendly.
I have a 4-Door and in my opinion it is the only way to go. I have a 3 year old daughter and putting her in the back seat is a breeze. Plenty of leg room in the front and the back. Very comfortable.
The bed is a bit small, but with the bed extender, that came with my truck, I haven't found anything I can haul, yet.
Overall I love this truck, maybe the best truck I have ever bought.
