If I'm towing a trailer, I look for a pull-through spot and take both spaces. My truck alone fits in a single space, and I'll fold the mirror in for anybody that invades my spot.

When I was truck shopping, all the V6 Tacos were $30k+. Across the street at the Nissan dealer, V6 Frontiers were starting at $23k+...

Nissan could swap the VQ40 with the VQ37 and have more horsepower than the GM twins, but that motor wouldn't make as much sense in a truck. GM should have gone with the 4.3, little less hp, much more torque at low revs.

My 4.0 Frontier averages just over 19mpg in mixed driving, FWIW.

What's surprising to me, considering the exterior is a good bit bigger than the Frontier, are the interior dimensions.

When I started truck shopping, I was interested in a 2-year old Frontier with low mileage... until I realized a new one, exactly the way I wanted it, was only a couple grand more. I bought new.

My '14 Frontier is only 205.5"... even the Ridgeline is longer.

Being that he tested a crew cab long bed... it's actually 225". So yeah.

My Frontier crew cab has almost identical interior dimensions, and can easily accommodate 2 or 3 adults in the rear.

I have a '14 Frontier, and I live at the end of a cul de sac. Every time I leave my driveway I am amazed at how heavy the steering is while sawing right/left/right to go around the wooded circle. My wife has a '14 Altima, and the same route can be driven with one finger on the wheel.

"only problem i have with the z71 option is that gm offers it on 2 wheel drive and i don't think most people consider 2 wheel drive an off road vehicle"

I have an eye for nuance.

"and mapped my way to it with a detour for tacos."

Everybody poops.

But at least you'll know when the leak drops your tire pressure to an unsafe level, so you can air them back up.

For $27k you can get a 261hp 4x4 Frontier with a 6-speed...

I'd start a gofundme to raise your $25k fine from the FAA, I don't think you'd have issues reaching the goal.

Statute of limitations for GTA is usually 3 years... so they wouldn't be able to prosecute.

"Schneider will probably have to notify the company himself."

Statute of limitations has probably LONG expired for GTA.
