      Ridgeline is a different class of truck that shouldn't be compared to Any of the trucks , its a Class of its own ! I call it " The Japanese Elcamino" Remember the Chevy Elcamino or the Ford Ranchero ! Samething !! There in a Class of their own !

      I drove them Both Toyota and the Nissan 2024 And I was shocked. I like the Nissan better. It will last longer.
      Simplicity goes a long ways . Just get a used Toyota Tacoma But you'll pay more than a brand new 2024 Nissan, 4X . I don't know what Toyota was thinking putting all that garbage underneath the hood? But I guess they want to turn this all into Beta's Girlyman l o l.😂

      Great points but I'll have to add ease of maintenance. IDK about 2020+ but in the D40 drive lines there is no electronics to update after service, it's a simple drain and fill.
      I think the 2020+ still have open diffs so if someone were to add a diff breather it'll make it easy to service and will eliminate the rear axle seal problem when the factory breathers get clogged.
      All in all the Frontiers are work horses and they are what a truck is supposed to be, basic, reliable and rugged.

Here's a proven, durable truck over many many years. All the big issues ironed out. No shortage of parts when the occasional repair comes 10 years from now.

    I was driving a 1980s Nissan Hardbody when I was young. It was a manual. It's how I learned to drive a manual. It had NO POWER steering. I learned to drive and steer it just fine. My point is that on one hand people complain about car prices, so they have to lease and get into perpetual payments, and on the other hand they want telescoping steering wheels, heated seats, etc.
    Meanwhile, the average person doesn't have 400 bucks in the bank to cover an emergency. What would happen if a car company made a high quality car based on 2000 technology and sold it for under 18k? I think it can be done if they got rid of car play, e-brakes, electric windows, and all the rest. Imagine being able to drive a solid car that you can keep well beyond when you pay it off so that you can have 10 years or more of no car payments and money to go on a vacation or even tell your boss to screw himself.

    I'm on my second Frontier. First was a 2012 SL Crew Cab Long bed. 160K miles and bulletproof. That truck was utilitarian by todays standards, but its reliability was second to none. Paint and interior were still pristine. Dealer gave me top dollar on a trade for my new 2024 SV Crew Cab 4x4 long bed with all the bells and whistles. What a beautiful truck. Feels heavy and solid on the road. Way better than the 2012. The V6 and drivetrain are silky smooth and effortless. That engine will be humming along long after the 4-bangers in the competition have bit the dust. To me, it's mindboggling Toyota ditched their V6 for a 4-banger. While they have good HP and torque numbers, a review from a major publication said the engine was noisy and didn't sound happy working so hard. Ridgeline? Passport with a truck bed. No thanks.

    The Ridgeline is really car-like with its unibody construction. It drives and rides really well but has minimal ground clearance. The Frontier is classic with its fully boxed frame and leaf springs. It’s more capable than the Ridgeline. It depends on what you need out of your truck. Both are great with their V6 engines. The Colorado on the other hand has a very course turbo 4 cylinder. It’s not refined. It looks modern but the interior is really cheap except for the big screen. The Frontier feels slightly roomier than the Colorado and is also quieter but otherwise they drive and ride similar minus the engine difference. The V6 is far better and more refined.

    Turbo engines canNOT be done cheaply, yet they keep getting squeezed into entry level platforms. Turbos are nice when they're new, but get a few years & miles on them and the problems start to show. And that isn't even addressing the Direct Injection nightmares (even with NA platforms). Turbos have more blowby, especially with the modern low-pressure piston rings, which means more carbon buildup on the valves, which means more expensive cleanings every 30K OR much more expensive engine tear-downs just outside of warranty.

    • @matthewcaughey8898
      @matthewcaughey8898 3 місяці тому +2

      You have to take care of a turbo motor better. 1 water/methanol injection. Water injection significantly reduces the under hood temps of turbo engines and it actually helps deal with the carbon build up by “ steam cleaning” the intake side of things.
      2 use of high quality synthetic motor oil is a must. So many buy the cheapest crap they can get, don’t. Turbos spin at around 100,000 RPMs at idle and run hard the oil coming out looks like coffee loaded with creamer. Change the oil early and often.
      3 proper thermal cycles, pre warming them is a good thing to prolong engine life additionally letting it idle for a while after you stop is very good. This allows tbe turbo to spool down with oil running through it. The biggest issue today is the use of aluminum blocks on high pressure turbo engines. The strongest turbo engines used old iron block construction. They could survive the high pressures they use today. But if you take care of a turbo engine the right way it will last.

    I prefer the heavier hydraulic steering also, and it's now becoming a rarity. Gladiator and Ridgeline have the most rear seat leg room in the midsize class because their platforms are based on SUVs. If I carried rear passengers on a regular basis I would not choose any midsize pickup though. The Ridgeline doesn't really appeal to me mainly because of it's exterior design aesthetics; but would be a good choice for a lot of consumers based on intended usage. I own a 2006 Frontier (bought new) and 'owned' a 21 Gladiator...

      A lot of the Tacoma's popularity was from having no serious competition for a very long time. Frontier is now the winner going forward in my opinion. Absolutely hang onto your Tacoma for as long as possible because Toyota has lost their way now. I think this Frontier is what the new Tacoma SHOULD have been like. Nobody asked for $15,000 dollars of gimmicks so they can take their hybrid truck to their bay area job and occasionally a KOA.

      If Nissan really wanted to show the competition how to make a proper truck, take 6 inches out of the bed and put it into the 2nd row, then make the rear seat adjustable for a "SUV" comfortable seating position. Otherwise, why does any OEM have a Crew Cab 2nd row that can only be used for kids???

    I researched the Frontiers by model year for problems when I was looking for a used truck. Their pretty solid from 2016 and newer. The additional miles you might get with the Tacoma are far out weighed by the additional money you would pay. As far as the Ridgeline goes I wouldn't call a vehicle with a timing belt and pulleys a truck.

  • @pointbreak8293

    Does anyone know on these 3.8 v6 Nissan motors, if they have an internal timing chain driven water pump or is it pulley driven by the serpentine belt? If it’s an internal water pump driven by a chain, I’m not interested in buying one as that’s a major job/tear down to replace the water pump.

  • @jamesm568

    The back seats in the Nissan truck have always been small, the only way to make them bigger is if you shorten the bed or make the truck longer itself, which nobody wants. I went from a 2019 Nissan to a 2022 Nissan and honestly I don't use none of the electronic stuff in it as it's completely disabled. I don't like going through menus on the dash. My only complaints with my 2022 Nissan is the electric seat keeps moving on its own and the turning radius still sucks.

    After 7 new Dodge/Rams since 2007, 4 of them 2500 4x4/Cummins I traded my 2018 2500/Cummins for a Tactical green 4x4 SV with convience and tech group. I have 2750 miles on my new Datsun and it is in the shop with issues. The cloth on the front seat has separated from the seat bottom. The rep looked at it on 01/12/22 and approved a new seat.The seat has a slight rock from the play in the electric adjuster linkage. The transmission has surging issues ever since they idled it up to eliminate the rattle/harmonic vibtration in the sheet metal on the engine with 300 miles on it and something is not jiving, Idon't know maybe it is the throttle body thing communicating with the transmission that it is time to go and it means quick.And that is when a Tervis tumbler of water or whatever it has in it pours all over your center console. The dealer has had me in a rental Rouge since the rep looked at my truck and a rep from the factory has called me on 01/13 and on 01/14. As far as design flawsgo the center console has about as much use as a bread box turned on end , the cup holders will not hold anything unless it is 3 3/8 in diameter and straight sided. The bluetooth dies when you parlk and kill the ignition. If you are on an important phone call and need to finish before switching to your handset, which is not seamless at all then you must finish with the engine running. Nissan took until 2022 to invent the gas powered cell phone, I am sure the Climate Change crowd is going to love that one. The popups that remind you to increase the volume on your connected device and the one that reminds you that"your call history has been updated" are so old at 2700 miles I can't even imagine keeping this truck for that reason alone.They hang on screen for 4 to 5 seconds. I didn't enter into my blue tooth to read, I did it to make a call. Why don't any of you reviewers point out these real world consumer tips. Their is a lot to love about this truck but if you are a dyed in the wool truck buyer like me then these are far more important than the remodel they put on the gen II. I bought this as my retirement vehicle as I am 62yo and chose this truck based on my families good history with the brand. This is my first new Nissan and my first small truck in 45 years.
    02/23/24 UPDATE AT 19,350 MILES. After multiple issues and dealership trips I am now on day 2 of truck being in dealership again. Parking pawl replacement along with 2 other service bulletins .Still having blue tooth issues and other glitches.Las trip in the writer told me if the electronics issues persist it would justify a replacement head unit. They have persisted but that was obviously not a true statement as they just want to flash the firmware again. I feel they are just buying time until my warranty expires. Truck has left me stranded 4 times in the last 2.5 months and it seems everyone is baffled. I park it for as little as 20 minutes and come back and it won't start. Acts like a completely dead battery. It won't even start with a 30amp start charger. It took an 80amp charger the third time it happened. Fortunately I have other vehicles to drive but this is becoming old. NISSAN USA makes it clear through the service department that customers are numbers and we are to abide until the warranty expires. I bet then they can find the solution to the problems at my expense. Should have waited on a Tacoma.
