So after some thought and constant stressing over my Ranger, I ended up getting a Frontier. Not the best time to get a new truck but after considerable thought, I figured it was best to make the switch rather than dumping anymore money or time into the Ranger. I got the Frontier at MSRP and Ranger trade in was very close to what I purchased it at. Frontier was quite a bit more than the Ranger but as the kids these days say YOLO! My wife has been giving me a really weird stare since I got home with the truck. And just last night I had a really weird dream that someone was standing over me with a pillow. Ah I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about ? Anyway, I loved the Ranger but with some of the issues with my particular truck, I needed something I wasn’t constantly worrying about. Hopefully this truck will be solid but as usual time will tell. Anyway I definitely still plan on hanging around this forum, you all are a good group of people and funny as hell. Maybe we can add a Frontier section just for us sellouts to hang around ?

Time to commence with the bashing…I’ll be annoyed if you guys don’t. Oh and btw, these Frontiers have a built in (hidden) tailgate damper.

I came over from a Frontier. I put 240k on it, drove it for 11 years and it was a trouble free experience. If this particular Ranger had not become available the day it did I was going to buy a 2020 Frontier.

That’s awesome to hear. Hoping this truck will last as well. I’d love to pass it on to my one of my kids in 8-10 years.

That's a great color!

That's also the first picture of them where I noticed that it has a bit of a door dip near the mirrors, like an F150.

I always wished Ford had done this with the Ranger too.

Nice looking truck!

I was looking at the frontier when I bought my ranger. I thought they had so many of the features I wanted, cameras etc. But I didn't want to buy a first model year (yes, I subscribe to the don't buy the first model year until they work out the kinks school of thought)... They have a blue that I was in love with.

Enjoy the new truck!

Yeah it’s interesting. I’m guessing it helps with your view somehow.

Hey man as long as you are happy that's what matters. They are your truck payments, so you drive what you want. I am not a fan of the styling or the color, but other than that I'm sure it's a great truck:cool:
