#Nissan #Frontier #Hype - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Midsize trucks don't have to be world beaters. They just need to be useful and reliable, done.
yes. im really interested in this truck because i honestly prefer cars. it seems to act more like a full size sedan on the road. but has the bed, and can tow a small trailer without issue.
Agreed. I think it will be very popular.
And that's why they are sad, uncomfortable, awkward, and essentially useless for most people.
@@wildman1137 were you looking in the mirror when you typed that? Lol jk
@@FrankyRedEyes Whoa! that was cold (laughing)...
Nathan going over it pointing out everything wrong is perfect showing all the little things most people gloss over big thumbs up
I love how he's scrutinizing the truck. He pointed out all the things wrong with it that most reviews don't.
Hence why I get my true opinions from tfl studios. All of the big boy media companies gloss or never mention anything really negative.
If only they scrutinize the Taco in the same way.
Just speaking the truth. Facts hurt your feelings?
@@HarryKuloh Perhaps read my comment again Mr. Shapiro.
@@allentoyokawa9068 have you ever owned a 3rd gen? i did, for 3 years. it was the worst midsized truck i ever drove or owned.
IMO, if you’re towing more than 6000 lbs on a regular basis, you should move up to a half ton, anyway.
i would say 5000
@@dirtrider88 agreed, 4500 is the most I would tow on a midsize.
More like 4000
Agree, actually they say 7000 is for the gladiator but when you see someone towing 7000 with a mid size truck (they really struggle) 7000 X 0.80 = 5600 is the real towing capacity for any vehicle you have to multiply by 0.80 to get the real capacity.
@@carlosvale8198 ummmm... why do you have to multiply to get the "real" number?
90% of truck owners never even tow anything so yeah.. it's definitely a win.
That's what I'm saying. Looks, comfort, that goes a long way. Fuel mileage and telescopic steering would be nice, but they don't do anything for your image. That color!
More closer to 95% truck owners never tow or do any off road
@@bigdavedayday1581 That’s not accurate even if you like your own comment. Everyone I know with a truck tows
@@alh06 If you want to argue a towing point.... you shouldn't be looking into midsized trucks. Midsize are for daily and light work. Which 95% of people don't even do. You want a real towing truck get you a full size diesel.
“90-95% never go off road or tow anything”u guys pulling numbers from your asses ? All the guys I know carry a camper, pull trailers and go off road with their trucks. You guys must live near the stupid malls.
Nissan removed the tow hitch when they sent it to TFL. Apparently they watch the channel!
Don't forget that the new tundra with a 6.5 ft bed had a payload of barely over 1200 lbs. And honestly, no midsized truck should be towing over 7k
I think that was for the maxed out 1794 with the base engine
@life phobic no max payload is at 1,900
@@Jaimeleon20 exactly, it is a loaded crew cab with 6.5 bed and 1200 lb payload
@@egroach77 Please post a link where you found that. Even the TRD Pro has payload of 1600…
So the new Santa Fe has better payload than all these trucks. Lol
I like it's non turbo simplistic running gear. I don't drive far enough to care about fuel mileage.
Everything Andre said at the end that could be improved would drive the price up up and up. This truck is less expensive and not best in class in every department and that's exactly what Nissan was going for. I agree with Nissan on this.
I wish man, it starts at 40k in Canada, thats 2k more than the Tacoma and it doesn't have basic stuff like a telescoping wheel adjustment. I'll have to stick with my '12 frontier for now, that's way beyond my price range
The limited range and comparably bad fuel economy are the main reasons I'll pass on it. Reasonably priced Pro-4X is cool though.
couldn't agree more. Nissan's wheelhouse isn't producing class leaders, they are much more about value, horsepower, and lower prices than Toyota haha
Considering Nissan was still selling frontiers that we a 17 year old design, I think they did enough to maintain their sales. Maybe they wont beat everyone else but I dont think that's the point.
If they weren't priced like a Tacoma that would make more sense, but now...
@@paultruesdale7680 i agree but I dont think they are going to be blown away in sales since everyone is making a mid-size trucks now. If they had done this 5 years ago they would be setting pretty by now. Nissan has always made good trucks so I hope this one doesn't disappoint.
I still really like the old one despite the old interior. Given a killer price on an old used one, vs this new one would have me thinking. Course, I'll be looking at them in 3 or 4 years, so definitely this new one would make more sense.
That 4l V6 they put in it for 20 years was essentially bullet proof which is why people bought them and the new 3.8l V6 is even better.
You guys Rock together. Loved this Nissan review and hope they are finally waking up again. The automotive world is much better off with a healthy Nissan. Please keep these coming.
Looking forward to the new Z, after they come down in price in a few years (hopefully)...
44k for a mid size truck. We’ve gone mad thinking that’s value.
Yea these prices are insane. This truck fully loaded should be 34-36 thousand.
Gladiator is like 50 60k easy
Wait for Tacoma to hit the market
People were paying $40k for Tacoma TRD Off roads back in 2016. You can get one of these now for little over 40k.
@@Ntmoffithe previous gen pro4x started at $37,890… this gen pro4x starts at $39,300… I’d much rather pay the little more for this much nicer truck. Everything’s about perspective, you can’t find a mid spec full size for anything under 50-55k
Nathan is funny, when Andre showed him the 1st aid and Recovery kits... He said nice, but I rather have a Tow Hitch😂😂😂
He gets disappointed at Andre like as if he owns the company😅
Keep the hype down so the dealers dont mark it up please 🤣🤣. Great video looks like a fun truck.
I just bought one of these yesterday. I drove a Toyota Tacoma, then drove this. It drives better, is quieter, steers better and the transmission is way smoother. It’s plain Jane… but It’s awesome.
Picked up my Pro 4x yesterday. It’s really a sweet truck!!!!
Bought a SV 4X4 instead. Didn't need fancy shocks, skid plate and vanity graphics. Does the same job. Saved thousands.
@@fredweller1086yeah I wanted a pro4x but opted for a SV 4x4 with technology and convenience package and it’s sweet.
These two dudes make for the best videos. Finally I can't wait for the offroad review.
The new truck looks good, I hope Nissan returns to their former glory.
You brought out the "A" team for this review.
I was dying at “ he throws me a biscuit and I grab it
I ( still ) own a 1996 Pathfinder XE that I bought BRAND NEW in April, 1996...
187,000 miles. Does not burn oil, still easily passes SMOG....
Looks pretty much showroom new...
1996 was before Renault took over, they were still good at that time. now Nissan make scrap vehicles and is the worst Japanese auto maker.
Yes Nissan is garbage now
Yep I am biased. After working on Toyotas at the dealer level since 1990, and a Tacoma owner, I spent 2005-2010 at a Honda Nissan dealership. Went back to a Toyota dealership until 2017.
That said, the latest Frontier looks great. But my experience as a flat rate Technician working on Nissan trucks for 5 years, I learned at that time, that I would push my Tacoma, with only 3 wheels, axle deep in mud before I would own a Nissan truck. This was based on what went wrong, and how Nissan corporate would pay for warranty work, and how well that they stood behind the product at THAT time. With what I have to deal with now, being a shop manager, working on these trucks today, honestly my opinion has not changed. We presently have 2 Titan diesels waiting for turbos, and Frontiers waiting on rear differentials. For now, I will keep my Toyota's
I have owned two nissan frontiers first a 06' crew cab Nismo 4x4 that i sold with 240K and now a 2013 pro4x with 100k. Although these trucks are reliable and easy to work on. i have to agree with you. My wifes toyota highlander has required absolutely zero weekend time/time off to repair. I just do regular maintenance and put gas in it and it just goes, never breaks down or throws me for a saturday at autozone. My next truck will be a tacoma.
I mean the way I look at it, it’s nothing insane or mind blowing but looks and seems like a great mid size truck.
Who doesn’t love mediocre!
@@matthewm3912 it may be mediocre but at least they didn't make an ugly truck
@@matthewm3912 it's not mediocre lol
I bought the Pro-4X the day it came off the truck as an upgrade from the 2019 SV. There is no comparison. I will be driving this truck for the next 15 years.
Better than the Ford Ranger?
@@Icanreadgood1 Absolutely. It's more powerful, and has many more features when you compare the top trim.
@@whiskeyearned1543 That's good to know, I'm in the market for a midsized pickup.
Hoes the turning radius compared to your previous 2019?
@@bmechanic5198 Seems the same, but I've never purchased a vehicle based on turning radius.
I just bought a 2004 Nissan Xterra I found on Craigslist for $4,500. 4wd, just over 120k miles. Gave it a tune-up, changed the fluids, washed it, everything works,runs great! No need to be wasting $50k for a brand new truck.
Hey, that's me. There is no way I could pay that kind of money for a Frontier.
I could not afford it and it is not worth it.
I think you have the better idea.
I'm the infamous Tacoma fan boy and I love this truck.
Serious competitor to the Tacoma. Can’t wait to test drive one.
Only if you don't care about reliability and durability.
@@zarbon700 owned 3 frontiers for my company since 2005 all made it to 300k before I sold them with no issues.
@@Supernova778 The 2005 to 2020 generation was designed by Nissan before Renault started having more control over the brand. Prior to this, Nissan built very reliable vehicles. 2005 to 2020 Frontier is a 15 year old Japanese engineered vehicle that had very little changes over the many years, so it will be reliable. That's why I'm not surprised the ones you owned were reliable.
The 2022 Frontier was engineered during the Renault controlling era, so it won't be as well engineered as the previous generation you owned.
@@2011buddylee Mechanics will be laughing on their way to bank to deposit all the money you spent on repairing your out of warranty Frontier. Enjoy your time hanging out at repair shops.
@@zarbon700 agree unlike the tacoma lol
You guys are so cool, always make the videos fun to watch. Very informative.👍🏼🙏🏼
My 2010 LE 4x4 crew cab has the Rockford Fosgate sound system with the subwoofer under the rear seat like that Fender set up. My dog didn't like it, but my daughters always got a kick out of feeling the seat thump when I cranked the tunes. My younger daughter was 9 when I bought that truck. She fell in love with it and told me then that when she was old enough to drive, I would have to buy another car for me, so she could drive the Frontier. She is using it as her daily now, and it is getting close to 150K miles on the odometer. Something tells me the new Frontier is going to have similar reliability and avid fans.
The big pro for me is the seats: far more comfortable than all others in the class, which is a big deal on long trips. The truck should be reliable, if not abused. I can live with the faults. Trucks in this category are way too small to tow 6k# in the real world: 3K# is my comfort level for this class. This leaves payload room for a cap and light load. 4x4 is great for the tasks I shall have: the truck is not in the rock crawler class, and I would not try it. I think Nissan has a winner.
What seats do u have im considering pro x seats but sv seats and leather seats look really good
I would rather have a great truck and either upgrade the seats or put in pricy aftermarket seats.
@@oldie4210 not a bad idea. please show us and lead the way.
I just bought this truck with the orange trim interior and I love this truck. Extremely happy with it.
I also am super very with it. It rides super smooth and quiet, yet very capable. I have the Pro X in tactical green w a tow hitch and it is perfect for me and our family. Congrats & enjoy!!
Locker button is a bit low, but how often will the average owner need to engage it?
Not very often if at all. For a rarely used function , putting the locker button out of the way isnt such a bad thing.
Tow button is in a proper location considering this feature could be used much more often.
Good honest review. Which is why I keep coming back. :)
For a second I thought Nathan’s soul left his body when he discovered a lack of a towing hitch. 😂
I saw one of these new Frontiers, a dark gray one, the other day. It was parked in a parking lot and I saw it as I drove by. As I was driving by, I thought it was a freshened ‘22 Tacoma. Looked JUST like a Tacoma!
Great review guys. Keep up the content! Friggin hysterical dialogue. Nathan is cracking me up!
From everything I’ve seen about this truck I say yes it was totally worth the wait for this truck I can’t wait to see how the hydraulic body mounts affect the chassis flex of this truck off road
That engine sounds faster than it is! Actually, I think they did a good update. Very competitive package for someone who wants a traditional pickup truck. I would agree with Nathan, it should have a tow hitch as standard. And an excellent engine without resorting to a turbocharger. I would consider it, though I am a Ford guy.
It looks like a kool truck, I just wish Dodge would bring back their Dakota
Love the new format, guys!
Thanks for another great video fellas! Always a great informative video with these two reviewers. Looks like a great little truck!
Brilliant Job of taking Next to nothing to really work with" pre model , no tow etc etc".. an making it focused an interesting, a case of "Less is More".. Well done guys..
I want this exact spec. Yes, I’ll buy a green truck.
You want it with a tow mode and no trailer hitch??? Just giving you a hard time in the name of fun. Have a good day/night/whatever, where ever you are.
I have my 2002 Nissan frontier 4 doors V6, 16 inc wheels 122xxx miles and still 💪 strong as hell
Great review. I have 1 more payment on my 2016 Frontier SV Crewcab and would love having no truck payment for years to come, but this new Frontier is very tempting. The mini subwoofer under the bench is awesome, I don't mind giving up that storage space. I love the look, they improved it cosmetically but didn't over do it. I loved the old Frontier because it looked traditional and with this new Frontier its traditional but with flair. My biggest complaint on the old Frontiers was the screen size, so glad they finally improved that feature. Its got the looks, got the power, and the practical features.
Can’t wait for you guys to take it off road. I’m not sold on it just yet! Gonna really miss the IKE for this one especially with the class leading hp.
I bought one and traded in my 2019 RAM 1500 and bought a pro4x package with all the bells. Best midsized truck in my opinion! Its Tacoma killer!
Definitly not gonna outsell the tacoma.
@@andyham6094 No I don't think so either. But it's a far better solution to the old boring product.
@@UTVPOWERSPORTS One Toyota flaw is laziness 😂. They only update trucks when they feel sales are in danger. Now, that the ranger, updated frontier, much more competitive Colorado look for the next Tacoma to have higher payload, possibly hybrid truck and more.
@@jeffreyfurtado3681 The question is when 😪
@@UTVPOWERSPORTS 2023,24 ?
I totally get if someone wants more modern or luxury features, but this has highly functional buttons and hard plastics that are easy to clean, solid as hell. The Pro4X has just enough features for me. Having full LED headlamps and tail lamps is nice too. No need to consider aftermarket options
I love your channel. Thx u. I have a Honda Ridgeline now for hauling my motorcycle to the track. How long is the bed in comparison with the tail down please? How does it compare please? Thx u!
I like how Andre giving instructions
I get the feeling he gets left out a bit
What a silent truck, they kill a squirrel and not even notice. 13:08
Thanks Nathan for helping me see the man behind this wonderful video through your shades.👏
Finally subscribed, the only reviewers I feel like actually know what they are talking about.
Need to put something under the bumper to simulate a hitch off road, even if it’s just a piece of paper that hangs down the same amount as the hitch would. Otherwise the departure angle isn’t accurate.
Nissan Frontier could ALWAYS beat the TACOMA in cab comfort, for me at least.
I tend to agree with Nathan in a lot of points his choice of color is NOT one of them :) ( I like red. )
What a shame that Nissan folks chose to omit the tow hitch on this one. I was hoping to see what it can do.
Word is getting around about the TFL torture testing...
Yeah I definitely disagree Nissan sucks compared to yota quality and comfort. Actually in everything
@@danielmurray5326 I cross shopped a Crew 4WD 6MT Frontier and the same in a Tacoma in 2006. I purchased the Frontier; I felt it was the better truck. I also still own it, and all I have replaced in 15 years of ownership (besides regular maintenance) is one O2 sensor. Best automotive purchase I've ever made, and I have owned 'a lot' of vehicles. I've never been a 'fan boy' for any brand; I buy what I feel is the best value and meets my prioritizations regardless of automotive brand emblem...
@@devildog5354 as do I and I'd never by a Nissan but that's me. Everyone has an opinion and choice.
@@supergirl109 not at all. Just your opinion
I ordered a hitch online for my 22 frontier. Very reasonable an super easy to install. I installed it myself
So...since the fenders have that square bump out, are we expecting a new Xterra? Those fenders sure look like we could see a new X built off this platform. Thoughts?
We could only hope and wish.
Truck looks great. I’d love to have one as a daily but I need a full sized pick up to do full sized truck stuff with. Plus with everything thats going on in the vehicle market place, I guess I’ll stick with my 2014 Silverado. Its not the latest, fanciest truck but it is paid for .....
Non telescoping steering column is a head-scratcher?? Perhaps, Nissan is taking a page out of Ford's book. Often times, Ford will introduce an all new vehicle...with carry over parts (engine, transmission,etc) from the previous generation. Over the next couple of years, it will update those carry over items and jack up the price doing it.
I got to hope it's just because it's pee-production........That's a deal breaker with all the features new vehicles have.
@@allentoyokawa9068 Not an issue if I was 5'5" but I'm tall and have to sit with the seat all the way back, the wheel needs to move with me, like it's been able to in most cars since 2000
Just bought this 2022 frontier in the ProX version with lava cloth seats in green yesterday. Great truck no regrets.
Great review as always.
Theoretically, couldn't you get a Curt or Draw-Tite hitch for the previous generation Frontier and bolt it on if the frame is unchanged?
Hypothetically, yes
Due to various shortages, (steel and manpower), manufacturers across the board have severe backorder problems. However, the old body style hitch (999T5-BY500) will bolt up.
Picking my alert red pro4x lux on Monday, very excited! Great videos guys!
When will we have a true TFL offroad review of the Nissan?! Been waiting inpatiently !
Everything Nathan said at the end .. I would like to see this again but with a truck the avg buyer buys. Then what is thought of the truck?
I had the 2011 Frontier. Not a bad truck. Towed my 16' boat and 21' Tri-hull just fine for a 4.0 V6. Pick up was good. Never let me down during hunting seasons from snow or mud. Hate that it's rigid on turns all dated looks and instruments. So....I guess I would give it a thumbs up all in all, but compared to my 2019 Tacoma, I'd say...My Taco wins by a mile in many aspects, but the Frontier beats it in terms of get up and go.
Thet look great and hopefully, like the last generation, this is the better and reliable options in their entire line-up. THANK YOU NISSAN FOR THE TRADITIONAL AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION.
too many missing items, thanks for the honest review
I think it looks great, like a perfect blend of the 4th Gen Tahoe and Silverado blended perfectly with the Tacoma
I owned an 06 Frontier crew cab SE for 15 years. Loved the truck, just bought a 2020 F150 XLT. I miss much of the convenience of a small truck but my Ford with 375 hp gets better gas mileage than my old Nissan. I waited forever for the new Frontier and turns out they took too long.
I really like it. I test drove a new Tacoma and didn't care for it. I plan on cross shopping the frontier and the tundra next year.
You should consider the Titan. Cheaper than a Tundra.
@@myduodenum the titan sales tell you all you need to know.
@@beexiong2995 That they don't market it? GT-R sales are low too, must be a POS.
@@myduodenum how many GTRs have been sold the last 10 years? That car is made in 2008. How many refreshes has it had LOL
@@beexiong2995 doesn't need a refresh when it's still better than everything else.
I got the SV in gun metallic just love it. The six foot bed is mandatory the 5ft is useless in any truck. I sacrificed a few options over the Pro 4 locking differential, phone charger pad, Blistein shocks. I use my atv mostly during hunting and occasionally tow a 3700 lb Feather Lite 19 ft Jayco. Great all round truck and mileage too 10.2L/100Km if I keep it under 110 kms/hr
Well guys I have owned several Frontiers and so far this has been the best one yet. I love the design of the 2022 truck.
Front end looks a lot like my 21 Titan PRO4X! I had two Frontier's great trucks.
It's the little things that would really bother me over time. Such as the placement of the rear locker switch. Buttons and selectors should be easy to see and reach. The fuel economy isn't good at all for a mid size truck especially when a half ton full size truck can get as good if not better mileage if configured accordingly. But when the price difference is $10,000 less for this truck vs a full size truck, then it becomes a value thing.
you have no clue what 44k would get you in a half ton
100% worth the hype. Buying one here soon!
I’m a Tacoma guy myself but I have huge respect for Nissan keeping a naturally aspirated v6. I guarantee that the engine will outlast any turbo I4
My titan Pro4x has the same hard plastic on the doors, but the armrests are really nice and soft. I don't mind the hard plastic because I know i can wash it down easily....like he said.
Exactly; the other plus of the “hard plastic”
Is that it’s durable. The softer materials that are common to a lot of German cars tends to wear faster.
A new Tacoma TRD off road is 10k less. Im pretty sure I know what one i would choose. lol, I really want to like the frontier , but I cant. Especially at 50k....
Agreed. I had a 19 Colorado and traded for 21 Ranger. Had little cosmetic issues from Chevy and the Ranger has been in for air bag sensor issues and just broke down 250 miles away from home with silly “remote start fuse” problems! Twice in for repairs less than 4K miles. Ford customer service the worse I ever experienced. The Nissan just too expensive like sone have said Ram needs to step up.
I was looking forward to this truck but I just love my 2019 Frontier Pro4X! Simple truck and a whole lot less things to go wrong as far as electronics go. I wanted a simple truck to take off road and not worry too much about and for the price, you can't beat it! For less money than a brand new Tacoma Trd Pro, I was able to get a brand new Frontier Pro4X, the titan swap lift, winch and bumper, lunch box style front locker and this truck as yet to let me down. At 44k, I'll stay with my 2019!
I tested a 2019 pro4x and I did prefer the seats
I bought one of these I ordered the SV Crew cab version green color , I do not tow stuff so I do not care about that but if I did I am sure it can handle a small camper or trailer once in a great while . I like this truck because it has hydraulic steering and rear leaf spring set up , quiet ride and good power . You can nit pick this truck like it or hate it but I think it is the best for what I need compared to the other competitors .
I think that it looks better than the Tacoma on the outside (especially that front end). This coming from a diehard Toyota guy.
But, I still like the Tacoma's interior better. It looks like Nissan skimped on the materials that they used inside; hard/cheaper plastics on the interior, and the dull grey dash. I still need to see one in person, though. Maybe my opinion will change.
Also, this doesn't seem to have Crawl Control like the Toyota TRD PRO. What gives, Nissan?
Having said that, Nissan finally updated the Frontier, which is cool to see, and waaaay overdue at this point.
I’ve had both and it’s not close, frontier to me is best inside and outside!
Love Nathan point of view !
I own a '19 Frontier and part of the reason I bought it is that I have a decade of junkyard trucks to get parts off of, it fits were I want to go, and it sit's the lowest to the ground in class and you can still touch the bottom of the bed from the side rail.
I like how the front hud wraps over the fender area.
16:52 Agree with the driver, I hate having to contort myself just to get in or out of a truck. So many vehicles focus on aerodynamic drag and slant the windshield far to back. This caused me to bump my head getting in or out. I like a wide birth driver side.
Been looking forward to this review. Sad to hear the Turning radius wasn’t improved, and gas mileage doesn’t sound much better than the old 4.0. Might just hold off and if I need one, get a pre-owned previous gen.
I average 25 mpg
Love hearing Andre say "Nissan Frontier", lol. I actually bought one (2019 P4X) because of your suggestions.
"Biscuit in the air" bwahaaahaaa! Nate, my man!
Anyone can pick something and complain, but overall this is a good truck. Want to see the offroad challenge of this truck soon.
You can find stuff to complain about on any truck, all that matters is whether it fits your wants and needs
I really like the the boxy design on the new frontier they knocked it out of the park very well done . So I noticed on the new tundra as well as this one that the grill is far from the radiator seems like a waste of space adding to the length of the truck why are they doing that ? Is it for pedestrian safety ?
I like how u guys bicker back n forth with each other like brothers lol.
I love my ranger, I had a 4 cylinder Tacoma, but when I tried the ford ranger, forget it I traded my Tacoma. I love my Ranger, I never thought I would love a truck like this one.
They look super basic and cheap.. NOT a go to town kind of truck, thats for sure
@@doylee469 yeah, I agree, but when you put bigger tires, lift kit. Man there's a big difference. But I do agree, they look odd without Modifications 😉
If I was in the market for a new midsize Pickup,I'd probably lean pretty heavy toward the new Frontier.
Its either Fronter or Ranger at this point. Toyotas too expensive and underpowered, Chevy & GMC are too unreliable. Then again Nissan has had a history of being unreliable too and the new Ford EcoBoost has a lawsuit that I've heard about hanging over it.
@@Pizza626 In the midsize I don't find the Ranger as pleasing to the eye for some reason. Now in the halfton class the F150 inverter sounds very interesting to me. I probably don't need it,but it sure sounds nice.Of course if I had that though I'd start dreaming of a travel trailer.
@@tritchie6272 I'm with you on the ranger. Looks like an ol generic truck. Something you would see in a movie or videogame if they couldn't get cleared to use an actual brand truck.
Take a look at the pricing on whatever spec Ford maverick you’d pick, it’s really amazing
I think it looks awesome
I love it , thanks again for the video
R.I.P. squirrel 13:06
I love the truck, but $60,000 for a pro 4x in Canada doesn't work for anyone. They said the starting price would be $29,000. Instead it's $39,000 for a base model. That's not acceptable.
I wish ford would have just 4 camed the 4.0 and called it good. Who needs 4 doors in a little truck that is ment to work. People that use trucks for every day grocery getters ruined the truck market as a work utility vehicle and way killed being a reasonable price. My 2005 fx4 was well under 30k brand new and it was with in 200lbs load capacity of the f150. It has a 6 foot bed. I put an electric brake controller on it so I could tow a concrete pump in a pinch. Really I think all manufacturers are. Missing a huge segment now of the job site commuter where not only dose the vehicle needs to work hard it needs to be economic and affordable. It I was using that truck for work the back seat is coming out completely and getting filled with tools. Because that's what we do. Just go to any job site with any trade and take a good hard look at how they really use there trucks.
Ford does a better job offering options than anyone else. Buying an XL with FX4 and tow package is too easy, Nissan and Toyota need to wake up (SR5 with locker is a much anticipated start). But still, in the Ranger, no 4-door with 6' bed option... argh!!!
This is why TFL is the best! They are honest and don't allow the manufacturer to bully them into making their vehicles look like Ass Kickers when they are clearly not. Great video again keep them up! Can't wait for the ford Maverick Review
It looks so cool! I'll go test it out tomorrow!
