2024 Nissan Frontier S - Less is MORE!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- Going over the 2024 Nissan frontier S trim. This one comes with four-wheel-drive and a fantastic gray color. Underneath the hood you get a 3.8 L V6 that produces 310 hp and 281 pound feet of torque, it has a towing capacity of 6640 pounds and a maximum payload of 1620 pounds. Fuel economy is 18 miles per gallon in the city and 23 miles per gallon on the highway that is 12.8 L per hundred kilometers city and 10.2 L per hundred kilometers highway. Pricing for the S trim starts around $32,000 and can go up as high as about $38,000 depending on your options. This truck is simple and to the point, unlike a lot of its competition where they went off with the technology bandwagon and made the truck so expensive and so complicated that the ownership experience will most likely not be great and be full of problems. The new Tacoma costs roughly $10,000 more than this, and has already plagued with reliability issues.
If you wanna buy this frontier, check out Banister Nissan of Chesapeake, Virginia .
I'd buy that just for the powertrain... long live the naturally aspirated V6!
@@JCT442 same here, it’s a great setup. I like it more than the previous gen Tacoma
Simplicity always wins. I agree that the other brands have gotten way too complicated, which adds cost and reduces reliability.
Yep, you can drive my 04 Ranger off a cliff and it’ll keep going for another 300k miles. These Frontiers are pretty close to that. Top slot for modern times.
As a family member of a Nissan owner, I disagree. Simple and still awful.
Absolutely 💯!
No nonsense approach and one of the most affordable trucks on the market
Yep, it’s a great pickup!
I got a frontier pro4x running away from a turbo SUV. Best trade I've ever made. I love this truck
Thank CAFE standards for the 4 cylinder turbos
To me a no nonsense truck would have a regular cab 2 doors and a 6 foot bed.I will drive my 2005 GMC canyon regular cab until there is nothing left of it.
I have this exact same truck and color in a 2023. I absolutely LOVE it!! The perfect truck honestly. Look the looks and styling and the performance is beautiful. Extremely comfortable and reliable!!
These days of added costs and "mandatory" options, makes buying used (private) more and more attractive each day, however, the preponderance of people who are in the market for a new vehicle, don't have many financing options when buying private, so the dealers and financing companies can capitalize on this and take full advantage of the market. Dealerships are the cancer of the automotive world, always have been, always will be.
I have a 22 King Cab 4x4 with the tech package. Perfect truck I have been looking around for spare rims to convert to the 72X project look.
I just bought my Nissan Frontier V6 engine PX last month and I🤎🧡💛love💜💙🩵my truck👍😁
Awesome truck
Just bought a 2024 Nissan Frontier S and love it! I would suggest getting the tech package with backup camera, smart cruise control, forward collision warning, etc. it is worth the extra cost.
The basic S is a whole lot more loaded than my mid-grade XE Hardbody from 1987! 4 doors, V6, auto, and a dash screen, and Im sure power windows too. Yes its more money, but minimum wage has also quadrupled in that time. So realistically, this truck at $30,000 is probably offering more for the buck than my Hardbody KC 2wd 4 cylinder did in 1987 for just under $ 10k. And that's with American labor costs, unlike Toyota that defected to Mexico but still charges MORE for the junk Tacoma that blows transmissions.
I got curious and checked the minimum wage numbers. In 1987 the minimum wage was about $3.35. Adjusted for inflation in 2024 thats close to $7.35/hour. Which is what the minimum wage is now. Do you mean your personal wages quadrupled since 1987? The Frontier is a great truck for the money.
I wouldn't pay 40 grand for a base line trim Frontier...I would buy a fully loaded Ridgeline with leather, sunroof etc for 41k which I did last yr. or if I needed a real truck/ truck - for towning.. I would buy a base trim Sliverado, Ram etc and pay 45k. For me, the Ridgeline fits my needs, as I do lots of highway mileage - and get 26 mpg .. very comfortable ..and can fit in tight spaces better than the big boys.. for around 15k less fully equipped.
good point. If you're selling a midsize truck, you've got a very narrow price window in which to make your truck attractive to a potential truck buyer. Especially base trims. Why pay 40k+ for a base mid size truck when I can go full size with some upgrades for probably another 8k, with discounts? Full size trucks aren't moving so there are better deals to be had.
🧐 Base trim full-size ?? Here is some important points Chevy Silverado 1500 flexible build and price 👍 also the Silverado “WT” work truck basic truck the “MULTI-FLEX” Tailgate is available as a “STAND-ALONE” option for a reasonable price.. 👍👍 Thank you GM.
🤬🤬Ram 1500 “TRADESMAN” “RAMS” really smart “MULTI-FUNCTION” Tailgate “NOT” available on “TRADESMAN” 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
For “2025” available on “LONG-HORN” “$1,000” option check box popup window “MUST” purchase “ADDITIONAL” “OPTIONAL” package adding “$1,600” 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 “W.T.F.” RAM TRUCK EXECUTIVES !!!!! WAKE UP MAKE THAT “MULTI-FUNCTION” TAILGATE
a “STAND-ALONE” option on “TRADESMAN” !!!!!!
As for “FORD” 🧐 Their Engineers have lost their minds since the “2018” models their engines have “RUBBER” belts driving the oil pumps !!
Many different You Tubers have put out videos showing this foolish design specifically you tuber I do cars has a tear down video of a
Eco-boost 2.7 V-6 …. That’s a “MASSIVE” reason to disregard Fords “F-150” series
Look around though frontier base models start at 30K
I got this exact same truck, certified pre owned with 16K miles for 30k flat. Dealer even put black wheel skins on for me. Truck has 27k now in 5 months. Only problem is the one wheel skin is squeaky so Ima just rock the classic steel wheel look
lol bro I think you just helped me figure out why why wheels are so squeaky all of a sudden! Sounds like it my black wheel skins 😆 they didn’t squeak before but I noticed them become ever so slightly loose now. I love the way they look but that squeak kills me. So I’m guessing no squeak after you removed them?
I wish Nissan would allow you to spec. a rear locker on the lower trims instead of making that a Pro4X only item.
Like the old American days where you could spec a posi Trac on any trim level.
AND a manual transmission option. That was STANDARD on my 1987 Hardbody, which still has its original 5 speed.
here in Central Arkansas Pro4X are still being advertised well under 40k. and at least in my case, they will sell at that price with very little negotiation and work the deal if you have a trade to offset dealer add ons. add on was $1299 here. they took an additional $700 off truck and added $500 to trade and drove off 39,925 final price.
That’s not too bad for a Pro-4X
I agree with your take. I would like a 6 ft bed, and I'd also like an extended cab instead of crew. My understanding is that you can only get an extended cab with the SV. I'm ready for factory direct sales, too. These stealerships can dry up and blow away, as far as I'm concerned. Lets eliminate the middle man.
By far the best value in a truck. Nothing comes close.
@@Alan-lv9rw only thing that I would say that is close are the regular cab GMC Sierra Pro after discounts.
You know it’s an upside down world when a basic pickup truck is considered nice, those things were once a loss lead for dealers. Let’s just wait for the competitors adjust to meet demand if you can. I tell my kids that vehicles are not like smart phones that you change out every few years, these are tools that you take care of and hopefully it’ll last a long time.
Wait about a year from now, things could be way different with pricing. I do like that color. I would opt for the SV 4x4.
I'll wait for the 2025 model. I heard there's some improvements.
In TX where I live, these Frontiers aren't selling well. Local dealership have SV marked down to 85% off MSRP. Nissan is pushing dealerships to move inventory with incentives too.
85% off MSRP? I’ll take two.
wow , it might be worth it to fly out there from NC and drive it back home.. I have uncle in San Antonio
Only thing I can't stand is the Auto start/stop engine. I got a Titan just to avoid it
A dealer in Houston would pack that car with a $3,500 protection package, watch out.
This is what I look for in a truck. Utility! Fuel pump and ignition to repair only. No turbo or sensors to fail!
@@Danzilly yep, it’s a great setup!
Dump the pointless "infotainment system" and replace it with a simple push button AM/FM/CD (yeah, I know, but a LOT of us out here in pickup country really, really don't care about the screens and such for what we need out of a pickup). By the way....The truck featured in this video is very similar, equipment wise, to the 2013 Frontier that I owned for exactly a year. Wish I had that truck back as it would make for an excellent beater pickup today, I'm sure.
I’d like it better as a single cab.
Wouldn't buy squat from that dealer just based on the mark ups. My dealer doesn't do mark ups, even during Covid shortages.
$3000 for nitrogen in the tires, are you kidding me. You can get that at Costco for free...
Just another scam for dealers to take your money
Three grand nitrogen??Run….don’t walk.
I'd be happy in it vs the crappy American offerings
I just bought a 2024 Frontier S two wheel drive after looking at the Toyota Ford and Chevy four-cylinder turbo crappy engines specially Toyota shame on them. The frontier is the best value!
Glad to say I never fell for the nitrogen in the tires thing. Air is 80% nitrogen already. You know they aren't evacuating all the air in the tires, so what are they increasing the amount by...10% at most?
Folks, you should have paid attention in science classes... It isn't rocket surgery.
The markup kills my interest. No I’d pass.
@@yardboy3955 yeah it’s not a wise move
Id tell them hydogen in the tires, or im not payin the additional cost.
It is appealing
No to nitrogen. The deal breaker along with their notorious transmissions.
What a gimmick air is 78% nitrogen anyway.😂
Can you please stop applying CVT issues in past Nissan cars to their TRUCKS? Nissan has NEVER had bad Frontier transmissions.
Funny how thousands of Tacoma frames literally rusted in half, yet fanboys NEVER talk about Toyota "notorious frames " And that's on TRUCKS! If anything, the Tacoma is notorious for its "gear-hunter " transmission, but sacred cow Toyota always gets forgiveness.
Why not try doing ACTUAL research instead of spreading false BS? The transmissions in past Frontiers held up fine, and the new model has a licensed clone 9 speed Mercedes Benz trans.
Ironically, the new TACOMA, is eating its own transmissions, whether auto OR manual. But if you did some digging, you'd already know that. So pick on the REAL offender instead of gossiping please. Lies travel much faster than truth.
Stlll...a steep price to pay for "basic" transportation. $24,000 or thousand is nearer the mark.
Too expensive.
40k for this garage. I'll never buy a truck like this for 40k. Hell it will be 43k out the door. And 57k financed.
You all throw money away like your a forien 4 foot tall alien getting free money.
It's not simple. The 2000 to 2008 frontier was simple. These new Frontiers have direct injection instead of port injection so you now have more complications and maintenance. I like my 2006 frontier but when I needed a new truck I got the cast iron block naturally aspirated port injection 4 banger Tacoma made in 2022. Now that is simple.
That Toyota no longer exists. Complex turbo mess now.
@@jeanclaude7018 True but it doesn't mean that people can't buy used trucks like up to 2023 Tacomas that have the cast iron block 4 banger or Frontiers before the direct injection. People all over Florida seem to buying even older vehicles like used Kei trucks imported used from Japan. Screw buying new vehicles.
@@hothmobile100 Yep. Still running my 87 Hardbody 4 cyl, manual trans, with THROTTLE BODY FI by Hitachi. The iron block dates back to the
late 60s! There's an old Toyota down the street with back end singed by a fire. Tempted to see if they'll unload it.
If buying new, the Frontier is the only one I'd consider ,but still wish for manual trans. Toyota manual AND automatic are trash now, and Nissan already has the making of a great 6 speed if they would just do it. That leaves just the DI issue, and supposedly catch cans help. I don't know. The powertrain is getting few complaints so far. If we hadn't let the communist govt get so much power, this stuff wouldn't be an issue.
Sub $20k truck.
Not my problem. I'll go car less before I pay their asking prices. Grocery delivery; work from home. Where you going?
Good truck, not worth much more than 26K, doesn't get good Gas mileage . get A F 150 work truck and get a lot more with that truck VS the overpriced frontier. Nonetheless, they both are over priced. However, I will pay a few more 1000 to get a full size truck that can tow more and have more bed space VS the frontier.
Funny how you arbitrarily calculate the value to be 26k. Where'd you get that?
I agree it would be nice, but Nissan operates in the same central bank artificial inflation as the rest. Plus, unlike cheap greedy Toyota with Mexican labor, Nissan pays for high priced AMERICAN labor and still I'd less money for a better product.
Don't worry car industry is about to hit rock bottom. Greed is about to rear up its ugly head..
Nissan lost 99 percent of quarterly profits. This truck not worth 30
Idiotic response.
GDI fuel in engine , no thanks . I will stick with Toyota Tacoma .
Its a Renault they make trash.
lol @ the stupid amount of money for those "add-ons". LOL. what garbage.
@@PeterMainwald yep, many buyers will go elsewhere because of it
Um, no.
Mo is betta.
