looks like they might be starting to deal on the frontiers too. one dealer advertised XE with manual trans for $17k.
The earlier specs had shown that is was to be a 5-speed auto, but the current info is that it's a 4-speed.
Also in my area I have one Nissan dealer offering all 05 Frontiers and Xterras for $500 under cost!!!!
4 dealer web sites that have one in stock say 5 speed auto.
didn't get it going fast enough to see if it actually shifted 5 times though.
acceleration seemed to be ok, but i would have liked to take it onto the interstate.
i didn't like the truck because you can't get any of the nice options on it like utilitrack, spray on bedliner, mp3 stereo and black was only color they had. sure you can put some of that stuff on aftermarket, but then you come closer to the price of the LE.
i ended up buying an LE.
Seriously, enjoy the new Nissan. I've had 4 of them, and they were all pretty dang good vehicles - reliable, and fun to drive. Not to mention, functional.

I don't know if they sell directly now, but at the time they would have shipped it to me directly for something under $200. This was about 2000. I never did get it done since my wife took over the PF and wasn't as interested in the mirror as I was.

>>>>> In Sunday's NY Times there's a great comparison review of the Frontier vs Tacoma. Good reading, with the Frontier being favored in the end! <<<<
If the NYT can't get simple stuff like this straight, I shudder to think how they must butcher world news .....

I found some instructions at http://www.leeparts.com/frontiersatellite.pdf
thanks
What do you guys/gals think of this deal?
Silver Frontier LE CC 4x4 AT with
Leather Package,
Sunroof,
ABLS,
Side Air Bag Option,
Floor Mats,
Micro Filter,
for $31,250 out-the-door
31,250 is the sticker price for this model and options. You will be able to
negotiate a few thousands below this.
Thanks for your inputs.
I hope Nissan does offer a longer bed in the crew cab. I have a 2003 XE CC 4wd with with longer 6'2" bed. It has been filled numerous times. When they offer the longer bed I will be upgrading to the new model ASAP.
Impressions after 700 miles:
* With the auto-on headlight feature, it's annoying to not have a green headlight indicator in the instrument panel. Both our MDX and our former S4 have this feature.
* Going between our MDX and the Frontier, the leg room is a bit short in the Nissan. I have a 48" inseam. But it's tolerable for me on 6 hour drives.
* Have XM so I ditched the cheap looking fixed mast antennae.
* Removed the step rails becaused I think they are overkill for this size of vehicle. I like the higher look of the truck without the step rails.
* Removed the FROTIER stickers from the roof rack. Simple to peel off.
* Removed the front cross bar of the roof rack to see if wind noise would be reduced. Can't tell yet.
* I'd like to get rid of the roof rack, but I'd have to have some blank plates created to cover the mounting holes. Roof rack would likely come in handy when transporting a canoe. (I'll likely buy a Yakima hitch mount rack to support the rear of the canoe).
* I ordered Yakima Blockheads to mount on the front utili-track in support of several road bikes. Do a search on Titan and Blockheads to see the specific hardware to mount these blocks to the utili-track.
Overall, I really enjoy the style, power and handling of the Frontier. Thumbs up from me.
Are the specs on Nissan's website wrong? :confuse:
Thanks!

Penda website lists one available I think...but my local Penda dealer says they
are not available yet.
Any other high quality drop in liner available for the 05 Frontier yet ?
I keep hoping to see 8-way manual adjustable driver's seat and *factory* keyless entry added to CC SE. Seems really stupid to omit these.

difference. A dealer can move a Toyota fairly easy and give a better price. He may not want the chevy that means less discount.
Just had the intake collector TSB done today and the engine is definitely quieter. Mileage and performance seems to be better, too, but that's probably more psychological than factual.

They are still upset with me on the Honda site because I bought the Frontier instead of the Ridgeline. What can I say: I bought the best truck on the market.
