I've never owned a Nissan or even driven a Frontier so I really can't comment. Mow I did own a 2016 Tacoma and IMHO it was the biggest piece of junk I've ever owned! There are many here who came from the 3rd gen Tacoma and have similar feeling so I know I'm not alone with my statement. Maybe they don't have as strong of an opinion as I do but all have said they hated the drivetrain and the seating position.And what if he had bought the new Frontier - would that be worthy of as much condemnation as a Tacoma ? When I became a sales person for what was once was the 2nd largest IT firm, after a few months on the job doing some cold calling my thoughts were that it was similar to peoples perception of autos things like "HP they s*ck, I wouldn't use their stuff for free" and so on and so forth, heard very little actually based on factual info, just pre conceived often inaccurate bias. As long as they liked me (of course they all did) I didn't care, but for anyone who sells or has sold - personal like or dislike was often a bigger factor.
Having said the above I think GM sucks worse than Yota, no offense intended to the OP.
I test drove the ZR2 before buying my Ranger and I came very close to buying it. But after reading up about the tranny problems and some other smaller issues (I can't remember now what they were but nothing big) I decided to get back into a Ford as that's what I've mostly owned and have the best luck with. I think people should drive whatever makes them happy but with my experience with the Tacoma and the terrible customer service I received from Toyota corporate I'll never own another Toyota ever again.
