Title: New Ride-2019 Nissan Frontier
Post by: surfercook on November 18, 2021, 08:29:19 AM
Was a sad day when I traded in my 2008 Honda Element. BEST work/play vehicle EVER! If Honda had actually continued producing them I woulda went with a new one. But the last production year was 2011 and I really didn't wanna purchase a vehicle that is 10 years old. Always said I wouldn't get a pickup but looks like I'm now a pickup guy. After checking out all the mid-size models decided to go with a Frontier. Amazing vehicle really with a very loooong production run on the same platform. Only now in 2022 has it been redesigned.
  So the new truck needs a bed liner, racks, and a bed cover/cap. Definitely needing help with these add-ons! He's a 2019 Crew Cab/Long Bed---BIG BOY!

Amazing history with this vehicle. Been produced worldwide and has won numerous off road competitions!

I have owned 3 Nissan trucks over my lifetime. They are great trucks.

Great looking truck. It just needs something on top now.

I know how you felt selling your Element. I owned two Elements over the years and LOVED them.  Perfect dog, surf and Home Depot car, nothing else ever came close.. Driving a Pilot now...your truck looks great!

I love my 2010 Element w/ 155k on it. It will be a sad day that I finally drive it into the ground. I also already have my old 2002 Ford F-250 extra cab. with 125K on it. It's like drive my living room around. I could drive thousands of miles in that truck, but it always slows down for gas stations.
Happy but sad for you Cookie...

Get a mid-rise shell with racks. It will feel more like you're sitting on the tail gate of your Element. The cab height shells are too low IMOP.

Very nice! I have 3 Frontiers. One with over 300,000 miles that I’ve never done anything to and still runs like a demon. You won’t at all be disappointed. They’re fantastic trucks. And very capably heavy duty for a mid sized truck.
