Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Cars / September 2005Did the Frontier ever offer leather? Keyless?
Dunno much yet, but saw one for sale the other day. Seemed to have everything I wanted except these 2 features. Anybody know what the 1st year they offered them (if they did)? I believe 96 was the 1st year and they have had airbags then and since, please correct me if I'm wrong on that. -- _____________________________________________________ For email response, or CC, please mailto:see.my.sig.4.addr(at)bigfoot.com.

I know because I bought a 97 Nissan Truck in 2000 specifically because it was the latest model I could get without that ugly Frontier styling. Finally, the latest Frontiers look decent. I hope to get a used one next year. As far as airbags (or airbag) goes, my 97 has just driver's side, while my brother's 99 Frontier has driver and passenger side. >> Dunno much yet, but saw one for sale the other day. >> Seemed to have everything I wanted except these 2 features.

I SO agree about the ugliness of the first Frontier body! HIDEOUS front end! So no sides on the airbags period yet huh? :( Seems they think people who drive trucks don't care about safety. All the German sedans offer it, even VW. Took trucks an extra 2-3yrs to get them even on the driver side vs cars. Luckily, that's the only side I care about :) NO S.O. or rodents to ride around. Do you know if the 97's offered leather or keyless entry (sometimes called factory alarm, but has auto-doorlocks)? If so, I now know I want 95-97! That helps in the search :) -- _____________________________________________________ For email response, or CC, please mailto:see.my.sig.4.addr(at)bigfoot.com.

Never saw a Frontier with leather seats. Leather in a pickup truck? The new Frontiers have keyless entry. If the truck you are looking at has power door locks, keyless is only a couple hundred bucks at a store that sells aftermarket alarms.

I still can't imagine why they stopped offering all vinyl/rubber floors in trucks. Now THAT really is a truck thing that many would want. Same with the doors, rr. wall, or ceiling. You just can't get it anymore. >new Frontiers have keyless entry.

Also don't want my brand new (new to me) doors & dash messed with. Of course, I do know a pro.. still, better not to have to deal with. -- _____________________________________________________ For email response, or CC, please mailto:see.my.sig.4.addr(at)bigfoot.com.

I've seen a 2001 and a few other Frontiers with leather. One had the supercharged engine. Google it. >> Dunno much yet, but saw one for sale the other day. >> Seemed to have everything I wanted except these 2 features. [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >I've seen a 2001 and a few other Frontiers with leather. One had the >supercharged engine. Google it. I suck at Googling, apparently. Never find what I'm looking for, or more usually find too much! Can't sift thru to get what I want to know. If they'd just allow REAL boolean logic or regular expressions I could find everything. Didn't know any had a supercharger! I've always wanted that on a car. So much better than turbo IMO. Of course, best is both :) Better yet, 1 supercharger, 2 turbos for diff. rpm ranges! So 2001.. when did the ugly front styling stop? Just this last year, or earlier. -- _____________________________________________________ For email response, or CC, please mailto:see.my.sig.4.addr(at)bigfoot.com.

When I research a used car that I'm looking to buy, I google something like "2002 Nissan Frontier" and it will find an archived review back when it was new. Sometimes they will list the options at the end. I tried the one above and it came up with some decent results on the 1st page. Sometimes you'll get a ton of spam webpages though, so I guess it varies. The research.cars.com link had all the options listed for every trim model. > Didn't know any had a supercharger!

It's probably quick, but 15-16 MPG and 93 octane sounds expensive... > So 2001.. when did the ugly front styling stop? > Just this last year, or earlier. Do an image search on what I quoted above: http://images.google.com/ >> I suck at Googling, apparently. Never find what I'm looking for, or >> more usually find too much!

The >research.cars.com link had all the options listed for every trim model. Sweet, that sounds like just what I'm lookin for. I'll check that out ASAP, thanks! >> Didn't know any had a supercharger!

Yeah, you can't run the 93 all the time.. wait a min., 93?! Where are you getting that?! I can only find 92 around here, and crap stations have 91! >> So 2001.. when did the ugly front styling stop? >> Just this last year, or earlier. > >Do an image search on what I quoted above: http://images.google.com/ Forgot about that one. Just do one for 2001, 2002, etc. I guess. Can't believe I forgot that. Did it for a couple cellphones I couldn't find in stores to look at. -- _____________________________________________________ For email response, or CC, please mailto:see.my.sig.4.addr(at)bigfoot.com.
