Well I got mine today, black on black leather. 2023 Pro4x.. has every option, came with tailgate auto lock and remote start, has the PRO4X door sills that light up when front door opens. I am in love.. I gotta read to understand everything. Has the bead lock style wheels to, and orange accents and stitching.
@@HawkeyeRides was gonna buy the base model this weekend but “market adjustments” so I walked- Now im glad I did! I didnt even know they had this Pro X comin out! GORGEOUS! (Guess i’ll try again end of year haha) great vid!
This is the best spec, I have heard some dealerships are dropping the markups and giving a couple grand off. I don’t think it would be on this though, I would wait too.
The day I drove mine home it was like driving a tank, got home and waited 4 hours the tire air pressure was at 46 psi, aired down to 36 front, 35 rear, door decal says 35 psi.. now it drives great.
I think Nissan Frontier looks great. I love that the hood is nice and that its doesn't have over bearing uless plastic cover on top of hood impeading your view, like other mid size and some full size trucks
I bought one three days ago and love it so far.Waiting to see what I can add to it for accessories.Would like more storage.Passenger seats a bummer,only two adjustments.
You can find them, but they sell as soon as they hit the lot. I got a ProX in Houston 40k drive out. I think most people are going for the pro models because they look the best and have what most truck buyers want now.
I found the same thing. The pro-4x is a unicorn here. I also hope these dealerships choke on their markups. I won’t buy one until they quit this practice.
I bought this model in September, had a 2017 Tacoma TRD OR, the frontier is a much better truck, better ride, superior transmission shifting. I tried to like the Tacoma but the shifting was abysmal, ride was just ok.
I like the Frontier, the drive is smoother and you are right the transmission is as well. The TRD Tacoma is a great off roading truck but for everyday the new Frontier.
@@HawkeyeRides I had four previous 2nd gen tacomas and loved them all. The third gen in my opinion was a huge disappointment. I had the shifting problems between 1000-2000 rpm, failed body cab mounts, rear end howl at 50-55 mph and a rattle in the dash from day one of purchase. Never thought I’d buy a Nissan pickup but the redesign and test drive sold me. The seats are so comfortable. The Frontier is a serious contender with the Tacoma now.
I hated my Tacoma so much I got rid of it after just 8 months...worst driving vehicle I've ever owned. I am now planning to buy a Pro4x at the end of the year.
Great review! Beautiful truck, finally they did it after 16 years. Only gripe in the review I have is the tires are not bead locked sir. They are made to look that way; if you deflate and crawl you’ll be in trouble!
Thank you, this was a package upgrade that was stated in the sticker, the upgrade was around 3k and it included the bead lock tires and a few other upgrades 👍🏻
I like the truck but what engineer signed off on the placement of the buttons to the left of the steering wheel ? It's almost like they tried their best to make them hard to use. Other than the lights switch, all other buttons should be on the center stack or center console for ease of use. Ergonomics are extremely important to me when I shop for a vehicle because that is where you will spend almost all your time with any vehicle.
There's a TH-cam video on how to move them. I just bought a Black 2022 Pro-4x King Cab and the axle lock button is moving up to the top row. It looks insanely nice with the Lava Red accents.
TOOK A TRIP TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER TO CHECK THE FRONTIER OUT NO 4X4 IN STOCK AS YET, THIS IS GOING TO BE A SERIOUS CHALLENGE TO THE TACOMA, HOWEVER THE PRICE HAS CHANGED THEY ARE MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE OLDER MODELS, BUT THEY REALLY ARE A REDISIGNED TRUCK REALLY NICE WAITING ON A PRO4X.
I wouldn’t say copied it’s still doesn’t have the off-roading like Toyota but if I was wanting all the new upgrades; beside the old platform, I would do the Frontier. 2023 will be a redesign Taco, if I wanted that I would wait so I receive the updates 👍🏻
Only a vehicle reviewer but I’m not a big fan of the increased pricing on all new vehicles either. That being said everything is going up, I recently reviewed a 2022 Taco SR5 with a couple packages, that was almost 50k and it wasn’t a TRD Pro. So when the new Taco comes out, the price for the TRD’s will be high as well, as base prices are what is advertised and normally the lowest number which is hard to find.
Great looking truck and classy interior. With its overall features though I'd say 45 plus thousand for what it offers is too much. If I could get a fully loaded pro4x without the leather for right at 40 then it would be priced right. Just my thoughts.
These are styled wheels but it depends on what you want to use the truck for. Extreme off-roading headlock, everyday; I like michelin tires or continental 👍
As someone who has had nothing but bad luck with Nissan products (mostly junk), this is intriguing but they'd have to sell the King Cab Pro 4X in the US to get me to buy one. They also need a real skid plate on this thing, that cheap aluminium thing on that bottom isn't going to last a day in the wild.
We want nissan frontier R nismo with nissan gtr nismo engine in it and nismo r-tune dual cold air intake and nismo intercooler with nismo r-tune dual exhaust system
Thank you, I didn’t want to compare to more than 2 vehicles as specs can get overwhelming on viewers. Next time I will compare to other mid-size trucks 👍🏻
It looks straight forward, add the side trim, clip the tracks in place and snap the end clips to close in around the top. Or have the dealership install it 👍
I recently purchased same model pro4x luxury in boulder grey. I am worried about long term reliability of vq3.8dd engine. I have heard it is direct injection and not multi port fuel injection. I am worried about carbon buildup in cylinder heads and valves. I am thinking did I made the right decision and worried about the overall brand image of Nissan at the moment. few disappointments no lumbar support and no passenger side automatic seat adjustments. no wireless apple car play, no telescopic steering. few positives, great looks, comfortable seating, good fender sound, wireless charging, leather seats and sunroof. smooth 9 speed automatic transmission.
Congratulations and great points. This new engine and transmission has been out a couple years now (2020 it was released), as long as you don’t drive it hitting low rpms all the time and service the vehicle as stated you shouldn’t have too many problems 👍🏻.
There is a cleaning that can be done if u get buildup, just a routine maintenance item. i know atech at a Nissan dealer he said they do it with the Titan and it works real well and is not too expensive
Like your product. The Nissan doesn’t have a rear window defrost- no turn signal on the mirrors - And as you said we have to pay for all the safety equipment. I tossed Nissan out of the mix, for that and a few other reasons. Thx again bub!
Uh compared to Toyotas or gm or ford? No not really. You can get the fully loaded Nissan pro 4x for what a base model Tacoma, Colorado or ranger would cost lol
I’d still take a tacoma trd pro anyday but I’ve been waiting to see one of these in black. Looks much better than the grey and green ones that are everywhere. I’m a sucker for blacked out looks on trucks tho. Those wheels remind me of the trd pro tacoma wheels. They really seemed to take a lot from Toyota Tacoma’s design and do a lot of similar details. Same way ford took a lot of design cues from the wrangler.
The outside looks so good, but the interior is the same cheap Nissan quality. The center armrest feels like it’s made of cardboard. Lots of cheap, flexing plastics around.

@@craigchapman234 thank you
How are you liking it? Turning in my 2010 Sierra for a diff vehicle this weekend and this truck is on my radar
Dealer mark up is really high and its hard to find a 4x in Texas, they flooded the dealerships with SV.
This dealership had 4-5, I liked the setup on this one and you are right about the mark ups 👍🏻
You can find them, but they sell as soon as they hit the lot. I got a ProX in Houston 40k drive out. I think most people are going for the pro models because they look the best and have what most truck buyers want now.

Thank you, this was a package upgrade that was stated in the sticker, the upgrade was around 3k and it included the bead lock tires and a few other upgrades 👍🏻
Was gonna say the same thing. The upgrade is just faux beadlock.
He stated “bead lock style”, which is what Nissan calls them. Not actually bead locks, as you correctly pointed out.
Thank you 👍🏻
I mean he did say "bead lock style" wheels...
Love your vids
Thank you
bought one year ago run good love it ,,sure wish they make a plastic roof rack would fit in that gap on the roof ,

You should look at gmc. They put all their buttons on the air vent on the left side lol.

THEY ARE GREAT TRUCKS CONGRATULATIONS WHEN YOU GET IT 😁👍🏻
Thats what i thought until i went and seen it today they copied the tacoma in so many ways theyre trying so hard but imo Tacoma wins it for me
I wouldn’t say copied it’s still doesn’t have the off-roading like Toyota but if I was wanting all the new upgrades; beside the old platform, I would do the Frontier. 2023 will be a redesign Taco, if I wanted that I would wait so I receive the updates 👍🏻
Really like the Pro-4X in black. Nicely done Nissan but you need to lower the price or the new upgraded Tacoma\ZR2 will eat you up.
Only a vehicle reviewer but I’m not a big fan of the increased pricing on all new vehicles either. That being said everything is going up, I recently reviewed a 2022 Taco SR5 with a couple packages, that was almost 50k and it wasn’t a TRD Pro. So when the new Taco comes out, the price for the TRD’s will be high as well, as base prices are what is advertised and normally the lowest number which is hard to find.
54k for the new taco..and that's the limited, not even the trd pro ..expect 60k+ for those
Nissan needs to make an all new Titan with a similar but larger scale front end as this frontier! I’d buy one!
They did refresh it back in 2020 but it would be nice to see some touch up 👍🏻
Great looking truck and classy interior. With its overall features though I'd say 45 plus thousand for what it offers is too much. If I could get a fully loaded pro4x without the leather for right at 40 then it would be priced right. Just my thoughts.
They are great trucks, the upgrades interior and the exterior styling 👍🏻
So actually trade my 20 taco for pro 4x frontier definitely feels way better however I will miss standard transmission
They are both great trucks
Great Nissan.
I agree 👍🏻
Cooling seats are needed, good with leather on hot summer days.
I agree and every vehicle I buy has both heated / ventilated seats 👍🏻
I love this truck
They are great trucks 👍🏻
What in the Goodyear are beadlock tires

The 4 door is much better but if you don’t need the extra interior room then I understand why you like the King cab 👍🏻
@@HawkeyeRides 4 door trucks have sloppy flex.
I like the extra space plus I can still do some off-roading so it works for me 👍🏻
The wheels aren't actually beadlocked, it's just a cosmetic look
Yes That is correct, I did say bead lock styled 👍🏻
Good review
Thank you 👍🏻
Only thing I don’t like is the plastic wheel flares , they will just fade
It would be nice to see it the body color
Keep going 🤗☺️☺️☺️☺️
Thank you
I don’t understand the side steps for a midsized truck. My 7 year has no problem getting into a truck this size.
Maybe more for style
I love this truck but the deal breaker is the old man column shifter ?
They are nice 👍
Dana 44 rear exle is a nice feature.

I rather get a Frontier SV than a Maverick or Hyundai Santa Cruz.
