I got my 2023 Pro X premium, I’ve had it almost a year. About 9k miles on it. Never had any issues! I love it! The premium model came with the tech package and leather seats, sunroofs, Fender Audio package (which is awesome!) rino lined bed, LED bed lights, heated steering wheel, remote start, etc.
I had a 2011 Tacoma TRD Offroad 2 wheel drive and it had a rear dif. locker. Nissan should make the rear locker an option on trim levels other than the Pro 4X.
2WD trucks are very capable off road if you remove traction control. You can tow more on this ProX, and clearly 4x4 trucks have a different goal besides off road destruction hobby, but I’ve seen 2WD trucks doing great things if you drive safely on mud and rut.
I have viewed a fair number of Nissan Pro4X video reviews. This ProX review is very well done. I like the detail of going through buttons and gadgets. I own a 2023 Pro4X and i actually learned a few things watching your review. I traded my 2017 Colorado for the Pro4X and I'm growing to like it very much. It's true 4WD is rarely needed, just a nice to have. The steering is heavy, but one becomes accustomed to it fairly quickly. My Colorado had an oil pump recall soon after purchase and there are a lot of tranny "shudder" problems with the 8 speed. I needed a new tourque converter before 25,000km. Hoping for better results with the Frontier, like the look and ride a lot so far. Thanks for a great video!
the pro-X is 200Lbs lighter than the Pro-4x . that's of some substance being about 7% of the trucks weight. combined with a light ( nismo ) wheel and tire selection , you can drop almost another 100 Lbs. so you'll gain in total about 4-5mpg compared to the pro-4x. the tire/wheel combo on the S and SV are 16" with more a road/car tire . so this Pro-X is for someone whos an in between of the street to offroad range. less potential for mechanical , and or less cost involved with transmission related services. the lower total weight of the Pro-x compared to 4x may be because of the lighter truck total weight , allowing for the higher towable weigh .
I absolutely love my 2023 Pro-X, had it a year now. Its my third Frontier (2004, 2011, 2023). I need to add a few things, I had a Line-X bedliner sprayed, now I need the side rails and add in some rails in the bed. After that, its just about perfect! The 2WD version is good on the dirt roads where 4WD isn't needed.
Same, I'm in Arizona and don't need 4x4. Looking to buy this truck for convenience and hauling things around and getting around town without having a full sized truck that's a pain to deal with.
The Pro-X in two wheel drive is primarily a cosmetic treatment. Makes sense for those who like the look, but have no real need for the four wheel drive. I like the look, but 99% of the time my driving is commuting or driving around town, and a good per cent of that is highway driving. If I have two wheel drive, a locking wheel differential provides all the additional capacity I would ever need. I'd be looking at this outfit option, but I like the look and upgrades of the SL better.
My 20 Tacoma Trd sport had power sliding rear window. Even he sr5 had that standard. This is good looking truck I test drove one and was amazed how this drove more solid and not as bouncy as how my Tacoma was. I might look at this when my lease is up on my current car.
It'd be cool if they added a rear locking differential if ya wanted to tow a small boat or wave runners to use it on the boat ramp as you pointed out also the 4wd is more for hard core off road & rock crawling but on dirt roads & driving through state parks leisurely ya don't really need the 4wd but the added clearance is useful like a desert runner is set up differently than a rock crawler & on roads that may flood a little where the added clearance helps I'd still like the locking rear differential on the pro x like the pro 4 x has for those that don't need or use 4wd may occasionally utilize the locking diff in certain situations it'd be very handy
@@texa5boi yes more traction is better than less but a locking diff is immediate & would be ideal on the pro x as it has clearance & beefed up suspension with rear wheel drive so a locking rear differential would be a great option
Something that people are missing is this is from the old Baja pre runners. It's all about speed, range, better suspension action and reliability. Nissan would absolutely kill it with this truck if it had an actual locking differential. With the traction control system being programmed for it, it would have pretty good offroad capability and a helluva lot better handling and better fuel economy than a 4wd. As is its just a good looking truck for flat landers..
Love the PRO X 4x2 with Dana rear end. Very cool! Only thing that might be problem is the power driver seat, seen and read Nissan made the seat 1-1/2 inches smaller and that the seat moves a little unintentionally. PRO X 4x2 fits a lot of people who want the off road look and feel but don’t t actually dive off road 99% of the time. PRO X less parts, less weight, less cost.
I bought a Nissan Pro X back in September of 2023. The main reasons for me are I don't need or will use a 4X4 and I did not want to pay the extra money for an option I will never use, I'm not a young pup, I'm an old dude who has no more need to go 4 wheeling and tear up my vehicle! Sounds like good reasons to me! Plus, as I have learned with other makes and models with 4X4, a vehicle with no 4X4 option seems to always tow more and better.
Love my 23 Nissan Frontier Pro4x. I drove and compared it to the 23 Ranger FX4, Tacoma TRD Off-Road and the 23 GM twins and liked this truck over all of them. Mainly because it felt like a truck and had all of the off-road stuff I wanted. It also drives nice on road where I do most of my driving. I have almost 5,000 miles on it and it has not given me any trouble so far. It has good acceleration and the seats are very comfortable, I also love the way the dash and controls are laid out and the FENDER Sound System is one of the best sounding out there. I also love the looks of this truck. The 23 Ranger and Tacoma both felt like they were 10 years old and the GM models were nice but I don't trust a 4 cylinder turbo. This truck checks all the boxes for me and what I need a truck for. It was $45,000 out the door but that is fully loaded with all packages you could get. Comparable Ranger, Tacoma and GM trucks were around $10,000 more and asking above MSRP plus they didn't have any inventory.
Thanks for this. Bought a new 2023 off the lot, Pro 4X Nismo edition. I’ve just reached 1k miles and it’s starting to feel really sluggish when accelerating. I’ve seen others make similar comments after break-in period. I thought I might’ve switched it into eco drive mode, but can’t seem to find any ways to change driving modes anywhere now (eco, sport, manual). 😢Dealership added the lift, and big off-road tires: 285/70R17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Look sweet with the bronze wheels-but people saying they’re likely slowing me down? Pushing trany too much? Sure shifts quickly to higher gears! Trying to figure out how to improve torque/acceleration. Anyone?
It's the tacoma "pre runner" equivalent as the unpopular basuc two-wheel drive model is the small pawpaw looking tacoma (usually white) that only appeals to The Frugal car shopper
Looking at this same exact truck now. 2023, 42k miles for only 29k$ out the door. Only difference is mine has leather seats..much better price than a Tacoma. I live in GA don’t need 4x4, thoughts? Decent deal?
If You buy pickup truck it should have 4x4. This trim is for people from moll to tell their friends that they have very offroad capable truck 🙂 Greetings
I dont get why they dont give you a rear locker the mid 2000's the 2wd nismo had a locker and in the 2010s they gave you the desert runner which was 2wd with a rear locker. So all of the sudden they act like they cant trust you with a locker in 2hi.
I leased a 3rd gen tacoma and then got a rav4 hybrid in 2020. I loved the tacoma. The engine was bulletproof but the transmission was just blah.. tons of gear hunting on the highway and it was an sr5 with xp package. I loved my rav4 hybrid..no issues.. had it for 4 years. I wanted to get back into a mid-sized truck. The tacoma is way overpriced with the options I would want. You literally have to spend over $50k if you want leather. They're packages are wack. After hearing issues with the turbo tundra and new issues popping up on the tacoma i didn't even bother test driving one. I test drove the canyon which is a beautiful truck but i researched tons of issues with them even still with the 24s and that is also a turbo 4.I then test drove the 24 frontier pro-x and came home with that. I was able to get a great deal and it's loaded. The zero gravity seats are the most comfortable seats I've sat in any vehicle. The upgraded fender Audio with subwoofers sound fantastic. Yes it doesn't have a fancy all digital display but everything there with buttons is intuitive and just works.The engine felt fantastic...good torque off the line and buttery smooth transmission. Oh the cabin is super quiet also quieter than both my toyotas.I don't trust Nissan cvts but the frontier 3.8l NA v6 is a great engine that's proven and it has a 9 speed Mercedes transmission. I've had a pre cvt altima and a nissan z in the past and had no issues with them.
Love the look of the Frontier, my only issue is I went from a F250 to a Tundra - not sure if I can go to a smaller truck I’m so used to a roomy interior.
I can only see the Chevy Colorado and the Canyon AT4 in the Pro X. I don't know if thats just me lol. Good for saving some money while having a awesome exterior apperance. Thanks for the review
If u don't need 4x4, cheaper to buy, cheaper to insure, tow more, ride a lot lighter / smoother, better street only truck 100%. Now the need rear locker, Pro-X king cab in the states like Canada!
Great review! Just found your channel. It's cool to see a local doing review videos. I just picked up a 23' Pro 4z in Baja and am looking at the Nismo lift + 33s. Let me know if you are interested in checking it out when complete.
The lighting sucks in my22 pro4x particularly the panel of features low and to.left of steering wheel . I don't understand why they only backlight a few of the buttons and not all ? Or at least a little bit of light should would've been logical. IF YOU PLAN TO DRIVE THIS AT NIGHT, YOU WILL NEED A FLASH LIGHT JUST FOR THE CAB. On that note too bad you can not operate the rear interior light from the same place as the front light seriously with out a flashlight if it is dark you will have to pull over to engage or find the features between the driver door and steering wheel and forget about seeing if you remembered to put something in the back seat dark as a coal cave without lights . These are such obvious oversights hard to imagine how they were made
The Chevy does have an overbuilt 4cyl engine almost like a diesel on the bottom end however the Nissan has a real transmission not a cvt transmission that wear out & the Nissan's transmission is a Mercedes design licensed to jayco so if properly maintenance it'll last 3 times longer than any cvt out there as their good for 85k or so & most of them can't find gears very well the Nissan is the best old school style truck using tried & true systems & by adding nismo leveling/lift kit & upgraded better billstien shocks with external resivoirs & nismo light weight wheels & tires of your choice dramatically improves the already nice ride quality as many people like to customize their trucks & make it their own adding those dealer installed options really transforms the already great platform & still cost a little less than competitive top trim trucks & as he pointed out this truck is built to easily outlast most
The pro x is more of an upgraded desert runner as the pro 4x is more of a rock crawler with the nismo leveling / lift kit & upgraded alloy nismo wheels & upgraded nismo/ billstien adjustable shocks & external resivoirs
but what is the point ? if it just has no diff and no 4x4 , the drive train is the same even the shocks and wheels for the small price boost for the pro 4x youd still have the same truck except youll have that ease of mind if you go offroad with it, also what makes it have more payload is it just from the not having added weight of the locking diff and 4x4 stuff?
One of the best and very thorough well-done videos. I believe these PRO-X's are no longer available : ( Also sliding rear window, which is handy for carrying long items, such as fishing rods, etc. NLA! I only would buy any truck with the 6' long bed. Options do matter, Nissan!
1st I don't know what you are talking about as far as the Pro-x not being available anymore... it is readily available at dealerships across country.. I found that through google. Not very hard. 2nd Nissan has more build options and configurations for the Frontier than any other midsized truck including several 6ft bed options. FYI 6ft bed options do not volume sell the way the quad cab 5ft bed does so be thankfull they still offer it. Not to mention Ford, Chevy and GMC do not offer a 6ft bed in their midsize trucks so not sure what you are complaining about.
Agree. Needs 4x4 for off-road confidence. Having owned 3 Frontier 4x4's I really liked them and used 4x4 regularly as a hunter. However I recently traded my last Frontier for a Gladiator Mojave and it's pretty awesome too! Still need a HD work truck.
You want the honest answer? 4WD weighs a lot so you can boost your payload capacity by negating the weight of 4WD so now Nissan can say “Better payload than Tacoma”
A 2WD off-road truck is really dumb. It might be 1700 more for the 4WD version but the resale will be 10k more in 2 years. Nobody’s gonna want that in a used truck.
Don't even try to wrap your head around it. If it just doesn't make sense, it just aint a real truck. I'd just go shop around. That half truck aint the only truck inbthe world. Go get yourself a worthy truck that is a 4X4 with a rear differential wheel lock.
The transmission is a Mercedes design just as the engine is much like an upgraded penestat engine & billstien it's almost as though it was once designed as a new Dodge Dakota that was scrapped for the hurricane engine upgrade instead the frontier also seems like it waited for the patent on the f150 front windows it definitely is a very well built truck
I didn’t necessarily bad mouth the truck - it’s a great truck. I was just saying it’s interesting that it’s an off-road style truck with 2wd. Nothing wrong with that, but I can understand why you didn’t want to watch
🔥👎🔥👎 the driving lights when the engine is running you cannot turn them off. If you want to sit in your driveway waiting for somebody you cannot turn those lights out, so IPO the fuse out I want to be able to turn my lights on or off whenever I want to, and I mean all of them. 👎🔥👎🔥👎🔥👎
🔥👎🔥👎🔥. I should’ve never bought my 2022 Nissan frontier crew cab I have a huge regret. 🔥👎🔥👎🔥👎 I would be happy with a 1997 extended cab, taxi, automatic four-cylinder. This particular truck the 2022 or the 2023 has too many sensors on the dash very stiff steering. And the radio is very unreliable. Good luck getting rid of that radio and getting something better fat chance. 🔥👎🔥👎🔥👎🔥👎
Pro X 2wheel-drive gets better MPG and less maintenance best buy if you are not going to jump ditches or climb rocks Saves $$$
Good point
I only want 2wd, led headlights and a specific color. So the 2wd prox is what I'll have to get 🤦
All the ads and vids for these trucks tout the off road capabilities but im not going off road, im driving to work and walmart mainly.
It works great just for that which is what I do in mine.
More towing power
Just picked up a 2024 Pro X last night. So far so good.
I got my 2023 Pro X premium, I’ve had it almost a year. About 9k miles on it. Never had any issues! I love it! The premium model came with the tech package and leather seats, sunroofs, Fender Audio package (which is awesome!) rino lined bed, LED bed lights, heated steering wheel, remote start, etc.
so the pro x is not 4x4?
Pro4x Is the 4x4
If it had a rear locking diff - even just as an option - it would be a truly terrific truck.
I had a 2011 Tacoma TRD Offroad 2 wheel drive and it had a rear dif. locker. Nissan should make the rear locker an option on trim levels other than the Pro 4X.
I agree. Especially with the Pro-X@@thebigempty_5792
I have a 05 nismo 2wd with the locker. I would have upgraded to the new Pro-X but it lacks the locker. Deal breaker for me.
24 Ranger offers this as a option on the 2w or 4x4
2WD trucks are very capable off road if you remove traction control. You can tow more on this ProX, and clearly 4x4 trucks have a different goal besides off road destruction hobby, but I’ve seen 2WD trucks doing great things if you drive safely on mud and rut.

Great, fast-passed video Loaded with info. Had to pause to get the facts. Thank You.
I'm happy that you liked the vid! Thanks for the support
I have a 2023 pro x and I love it. I don't do the dirt road stuff!
I have a pro X love the look but don’t need 4 wheel drive
That’s kinda what I was thinking. If you don’t mind me asking, where do you live?
Same, I'm in Arizona and don't need 4x4. Looking to buy this truck for convenience and hauling things around and getting around town without having a full sized truck that's a pain to deal with.

I'd be looking at this outfit option, but I like the look and upgrades of the SL better.
I agree that this model is a little odd. They should just add a package to the SV if buyers wanted some of the features of the Pro-4X, but in 2WD.
The zero gravity front seats are nice in the Nissan opposed to most competitive trucks especially on long trips
My 20 Tacoma Trd sport had power sliding rear window. Even he sr5 had that standard. This is good looking truck I test drove one and was amazed how this drove more solid and not as bouncy as how my Tacoma was. I might look at this when my lease is up on my current car.
It is definitely worth a look
Buy it one year used the price drops almost 15k.
It'd be cool if they added a rear locking differential if ya wanted to tow a small boat or wave runners to use it on the boat ramp as you pointed out also the 4wd is more for hard core off road & rock crawling but on dirt roads & driving through state parks leisurely ya don't really need the 4wd but the added clearance is useful like a desert runner is set up differently than a rock crawler & on roads that may flood a little where the added clearance helps I'd still like the locking rear differential on the pro x like the pro 4 x has for those that don't need or use 4wd may occasionally utilize the locking diff in certain situations it'd be very handy
Is regular 4x4 without rear locking diff good for small boat ramps?
@@texa5boi yes more traction is better than less but a locking diff is immediate & would be ideal on the pro x as it has clearance & beefed up suspension with rear wheel drive so a locking rear differential would be a great option
Something that people are missing is this is from the old Baja pre runners. It's all about speed, range, better suspension action and reliability.
Nissan would absolutely kill it with this truck if it had an actual locking differential.
With the traction control system being programmed for it, it would have pretty good offroad capability and a helluva lot better handling and better fuel economy than a 4wd.
As is its just a good looking truck for flat landers..
That’s a great point. But this absolutely needs a locking diff
I didn't realize that my ProX had a Lumbar adjust until i saw your video 😳 and probably half the ppl w the Pro X don't realize it either 😅
It is hard to tell because of where it is😂
I am all for the PRO X
I'm all for a 6ft bed, extended cab. Of course, rear locker option & lose the useless tiny back seats!
Love the PRO X 4x2 with Dana rear end. Very cool! Only thing that might be problem is the power driver seat, seen and read Nissan made the seat 1-1/2 inches smaller and that the seat moves a little unintentionally. PRO X 4x2 fits a lot of people who want the off road look and feel but don’t t actually dive off road 99% of the time. PRO X less parts, less weight, less cost.
what's the percentage of ppl with 4x4 that actually take their trucks off roading? well, there you go. I'll take the 4x4 look lol
Unless it’s hunting or some boat ramp s it’s snow when I use it

Outstanding post! Better than most dealerships.
Built a 2024 Pro X and a Pro 4X on the Nissan website with the same equipment /packages and the difference in price was more like $4k, not $1600.
You're right, 4k buying pro x now
Best review ive seen.
2024 Pro-X and a Pedal Commander at Sport 3...good times!

Don’t get the 4x4 obsession where I live no one ever needs it. San jose ca and all the 4x4s look clean as whistle here 😂
The driver uses the steering wheel if needed where the passenger uses the a pillar handle to get in if needed
It's the tacoma "pre runner" equivalent as the unpopular basuc two-wheel drive model is the small pawpaw looking tacoma (usually white) that only appeals to The Frugal car shopper
ProX makes more sense with a rear locker, but still a cool truck with greater towing capacity
It would make much more sense with a rear locker
Awesome job with my favorite pickup truck.

@@1asian1phone agreed transmission slow 🐌
Love the look of the Frontier, my only issue is I went from a F250 to a Tundra - not sure if I can go to a smaller truck I’m so used to a roomy interior.
My favorite new Nissan Frontier I can buy.
I can only see the Chevy Colorado and the Canyon AT4 in the Pro X. I don't know if thats just me lol. Good for saving some money while having a awesome exterior apperance. Thanks for the review
I kinda see that too. Definitely a good price all things considered
The 2022 Nissan Frontier SV is designed for light-duty jobs. The rear-wheel drive is standard, but the four-wheel drive is optional.
Yes, and those are a great value for what you get
Toyota makes a TRD Offroad 2 wheel drive version, but I believe it includes a rear locker. You get the tiny bilstein shocks too.
Rear locker makes a big difference!
If u don't need 4x4, cheaper to buy, cheaper to insure, tow more, ride a lot lighter / smoother, better street only truck 100%. Now the need rear locker, Pro-X king cab in the states like Canada!
Great review! Just found your channel. It's cool to see a local doing review videos. I just picked up a 23' Pro 4z in Baja and am looking at the Nismo lift + 33s. Let me know if you are interested in checking it out when complete.
I’d like to! Send me an email or dm on Instagram if you would! Congrats! Where are you located?
Just traded in my 2018 Genesis G80 Sport for a 2023 Pro 4x
What made you switch to a truck?@@Blue-moon12
Pro4X has faux leather seats, extremely comfortable
I have one but I’m upset they don’t at least put a rear differential lock like the Tacoma TRD off-road that’s also 4x2.
What about a gray pro-X used with 27kmiles for $29,000 ? Is it a good deal?
Great review, this will be my first pickup truck. Looks awesome, I love it.
Frontier is far superior than the Tacoma seats are comfortable af.
Excellent review
Desert runners are usually 2-wheel drive.
Always like nissan frontier ❤

Pro-X is good for those who want just the pro look without a 4x4
The Chevy does have an overbuilt 4cyl engine almost like a diesel on the bottom end however the Nissan has a real transmission not a cvt transmission that wear out & the Nissan's transmission is a Mercedes design licensed to jayco so if properly maintenance it'll last 3 times longer than any cvt out there as their good for 85k or so & most of them can't find gears very well the Nissan is the best old school style truck using tried & true systems & by adding nismo leveling/lift kit & upgraded better billstien shocks with external resivoirs & nismo light weight wheels & tires of your choice dramatically improves the already nice ride quality as many people like to customize their trucks & make it their own adding those dealer installed options really transforms the already great platform & still cost a little less than competitive top trim trucks & as he pointed out this truck is built to easily outlast most
Not really sure what you are rambling on about cvts for. Chevy, gmc and ford do not use cvts on their midsized trucks. Your rambling is pointless
People in Florida or California don’t pull boats out of the water 🤔
They keep them in at all times? Y'all are lucky
The pro x is more of an upgraded desert runner as the pro 4x is more of a rock crawler with the nismo leveling / lift kit & upgraded alloy nismo wheels & upgraded nismo/ billstien adjustable shocks & external resivoirs
That makes total sense. I didn't think about it like that, but could definitely see that
but what is the point ? if it just has no diff and no 4x4 , the drive train is the same even the shocks and wheels for the small price boost for the pro 4x youd still have the same truck except youll have that ease of mind if you go offroad with it, also what makes it have more payload is it just from the not having added weight of the locking diff and 4x4 stuff?
This is the dessert runner version just misspelled as pro-x
One of the best and very thorough well-done videos. I believe these PRO-X's are no longer available : (
Also sliding rear window, which is handy for carrying long items, such as fishing rods, etc. NLA!
I only would buy any truck with the 6' long bed. Options do matter, Nissan!
1st I don't know what you are talking about as far as the Pro-x not being available anymore... it is readily available at dealerships across country.. I found that through google. Not very hard. 2nd Nissan has more build options and configurations for the Frontier than any other midsized truck including several 6ft bed options. FYI 6ft bed options do not volume sell the way the quad cab 5ft bed does so be thankfull they still offer it. Not to mention Ford, Chevy and GMC do not offer a 6ft bed in their midsize trucks so not sure what you are complaining about.
Nissan has been using that weird lumbar support handle for a while. I have a 2000 Nissan Maxima and it has that
It’s definitely interesting
Big thumbs up bro
Too expensive, should be half that price. As soon as you drive away, value is $30K.
Agree. Needs 4x4 for off-road confidence. Having owned 3 Frontier 4x4's I really liked them and used 4x4 regularly as a hunter. However I recently traded my last Frontier for a Gladiator Mojave and it's pretty awesome too! Still need a HD work truck.
Between the Gladiator and the Frontiers you’ve had, which do you prefer?
Gladiators have been having terrible reliability issues. Hope yours is all good
You want the honest answer? 4WD weighs a lot so you can boost your payload capacity by negating the weight of 4WD so now Nissan can say “Better payload than Tacoma”
In Hawaii you don't really need 4x4
A 2WD off-road truck is really dumb. It might be 1700 more for the 4WD version but the resale will be 10k more in 2 years. Nobody’s gonna want that in a used truck.
I had a 2007 nismo rwd
The only advantage is 3.8 V6 engine.
Don't even try to wrap your head around it. If it just doesn't make sense, it just aint a real truck. I'd just go shop around. That half truck aint the only truck inbthe world. Go get yourself a worthy truck that is a 4X4 with a rear differential wheel lock.
The transmission is a Mercedes design just as the engine is much like an upgraded penestat engine & billstien it's almost as though it was once designed as a new Dodge Dakota that was scrapped for the hurricane engine upgrade instead the frontier also seems like it waited for the patent on the f150 front windows it definitely is a very well built truck
Good to know - thank you!
bro doesn't know how to signal in round abouts :P
I didn't enjoy it,way to much bad mouthing the truck
I didn’t necessarily bad mouth the truck - it’s a great truck. I was just saying it’s interesting that it’s an off-road style truck with 2wd. Nothing wrong with that, but I can understand why you didn’t want to watch
Is just a truck 🛻 😂😂😂😂
Before we didn’t have 4wd
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Is just a truck.
Before there wasn’t 4 wd
Andrew Tate would be laughing.
🔥👎🔥👎 the front bumper assembly should’ve been made out of metal not plastic 🔥👎🔥👎🔥👎
I agree with this - but seems so many trucks nowadays are doing the same thing
👎🔥. The plastic bumper never stays behind the backside of the fender. It keeps popping out. I have to keep put it back in and it looks like shit.🔥👎
Ugh that is annoying @@stickbogart3657
🔥👎🔥👎 the driving lights when the engine is running you cannot turn them off. If you want to sit in your driveway waiting for somebody you cannot turn those lights out, so IPO the fuse out I want to be able to turn my lights on or off whenever I want to, and I mean all of them. 👎🔥👎🔥👎🔥👎
I remember my moms old Nissan rogue did the same thing. Very silly
🔥👎🔥👎🔥. I should’ve never bought my 2022 Nissan frontier crew cab I have a huge regret. 🔥👎🔥👎🔥👎 I would be happy with a 1997 extended cab, taxi, automatic four-cylinder. This particular truck the 2022 or the 2023 has too many sensors on the dash very stiff steering. And the radio is very unreliable. Good luck getting rid of that radio and getting something better fat chance. 🔥👎🔥👎🔥👎🔥👎
