I have owned and driven 4 Nissan 4 cyl. Frontier PU trucks in succession over 15 years for my small business, the most reliable PU I ever experienced. Drove each one 180K to 200K miles. before selling. As a younger man, I drove Chevy's, they were often needing work, some were "fix and repair daily" models. My 1st Nissan PU was a manual stick, hard to find, but ultra reliable since no automatic trannie to fail. Had to replace clutch every ~80K. All I ever did on the other 3 PU's with auto trannies was install an extra trannie cooler (after market), change tires, change oil every 5K with Mobil One synthetic, filters, change power steering and brake fluid every 2 years, change auto trannie fluid at 85K to 100K. None of the 4 were ever in the shop for any other repairs. Proper seat belt retraction was always a nuisance issue, Nissan has never solved it to my knowledge. Bought all of the Nissans used, with low mileage, except last one, none were available in my area from private sellers around Covid. Recently added a victory red 2007 Pontiac Solstice GXP turbo convertible to the mix, I found it with only 22K miles on it for $11,500. My best friend for >50 years used to sell cars at a dealership, he told me dealerships don't make hardly any money off selling cars for cash, most of their money is made off selling cars on finance and extra "options" on new cars - - - and selling service. I found ~30 years ago when I drove my Chevy into the Houston dealership for service I was lucky to survive with no less than a $400 bill, they always found items they claim need replacing. Cox Automotive, parent company of Kelly blue book says in 2026 the typical cost today for servicing your vehicle is $838 each time you take it in.
