1993 Nissan Pickup review from North America
"This truck will run FOREVER"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Lots of routine maintenance things: Had to replace spark plugs, fuel filter, brake pads.
Also had some electrical problems, but nothing major, just issues with the combination switch (lights, turn signals) but it was cheap to replace.
General comments?
This is an amazingly reliable and well built machine. It will take a HUGE beating and still run, and is easy to fix with just minor knowledge of auto repair.
The suspension is really hard, so it's a bumpy ride, but a hard suspension means that this truck can handle potholes and bumpy roads at higher speeds without sustaining damage.
Over all, a great and very reliable car (I beat the hell out of mine with long distance driving and off-roading and I haven't had anything break yet).
I just wish it was a little bit faster though, it came without a tachometer and the engine starts to get REALLY loud at around 75mph, so I have been hesitant to take it much faster than that without knowing my RPMs.
