I purchased the 2024 Pro 4X early August and so far I really like it. Only a couple nitpicks so far, no locking gas cap, can only see the driver window button at night, would've liked the backseat to be able to recline vs sitting straight up, and maybe have the rear headrest able to fold down for better visibility.
To be fair to Nissan, Auto Start/ Stop is required by law to be on by default in all new vehicles and can’t be permanently disabled. Good video tho, looking forward to seeing if a 2025 is on my menu👀
@@TFooote yeah unfortunately lol.... I can still gripe about it tho 😂 And for sure, I definitely think the 25s will bring in those who were on the fence about it!

The main thing that annoys me is the Fender without a Mid and subwoofer adjustment. The deaf guys at Panasonic/Fender should NOT be tuning everyones audio systems 😂.

I have a 22 KingCab 4x4. No start/ stop junk. I have farm a 6ft bed is far valuable than a back seat. Same engine and transmission but 25k cheaper trust me deer do not care if you have overpriced rims or steelies. I think everyone has forgotten what trucks were designed for in the first place. During the space race NASA paid a million dollars of our tax money to design a pen for the Apollo astronauts to use in zero gravity. The Russians used pencils Sometimes simple is better!
@@Frontier2022 cool. For your purpose the 6 foot is better. For mine, the back seat is more valuable. That's not to say I don't use the 5 foot bed. I do. Often acutally. And best believe living in northern Michigan right in deer country I know all about them lol. But I think a lot of the older generation has forgotten or doesn't want to acknowledge that trucks have become multi purpose vehicles these days, they fill more roles. For me that's more cost effective then having multiple vehicles (which we've done) A lot of things were a lot simpler back in the day. But from one veteran to another. Thank you for your service!
@@Frontier2022 we used to have a staples here in town....it became a harbor freight about 8 years ago. We do a lot of reports for the property management company we work for...wonder if I can find em online.
Hence, do your research on your needs in relation to a vehicles capabilities. Secondly, don't purchase a vehicle (or anything for that matter) if the next version is nearly available.
@@seanforeman1457 sure, it's unwise to make a major purchase without research 1st. But don't get it mixed up, my nitpicks are by no means saying I dislike the truck. I still believe Frontier currently is one of the best cost to value ratios out there in the segment!
Not necessarily. I bought a new '23 Tacoma right before the release of the 4th gen and I can definitely say buying the tried and proven model was a better decision than buying into a new model that's been plagued with issues in the first year.
