1990 Nissan Hardbody Pickup 2x4 review from North America
"Great, inexpensive truck that runs forever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch went out at 65,000 miles.
Replaced Fan belt at 70,000 miles.
Replaced shocks twice in 40,000 miles.
Exterior paint peels and flakes off.
General comments?
This was my second vehicle and I couldn't have asked for better.
Decent gas mileage (24MPG) and minimal mechanical problems with the truck made it a very inexpensive vehicle to own.
The standard cab is very small and not meant for a tall person.
The addition of wider alloy wheels and tires greatly enhances appearance.
It's not the fastest truck around, but it has enough power to get around.
Bad primer caused the paint to flake off the tailgate, roof, and the hood of the truck.
