2011 Nissan Frontier Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by steelydan0613

Exterior styling

Handsome, masculine styling without going "over the top" My wife and my mother both liked the way it looked, and so do I. Looks good in silver.

Ride smoothness

Very quiet and composed, feels like a nice sedan in the ride quality area. Easy to carry on a conversation at highway speeds.

Handling

very compliant suspension over small and large bumps, little body roll in the corners. The steering feel is light enough at low speeds and high speeds. Easy to find a good driving position at the 3 spoke wheel.

Cargo capacity

versatile cargo configurations with the optional bed extender, cleat and track system built into the cargo bed makes it easy to strap down heavy cargo. Towing capacity is impressive for a midsize pickup truck. Up to 6300 lbs depending on hitch used.

Fuel economy

Well, the EPA ratings are 15 city 20 Highway. The salesman I dealt with says it is easy to get 20 Highway, and I am not an aggressive driver. The V6 is geared low enough that it does 1800 rpm at 60MPH, so my light foot will help here. We will see !
