Probably one of the better videos from TFL in quite a while. Basically to the point & not a lot of fluff.

At about 900ft elevation, where I live, the Nissan feels quick. I was surprised when I test drove it.

@kennetho5393 Месяц назад

@@RockCh4lk Didn't TFL test hit 60 mph in 9+ seconds when they tested it previously? Let's just say at sea level that cuts about 1.5 seconds and with a better driver. It's probably still in the 7 second range, which is not that good.

Even w/o a turbo, the Frontier has a lot more cubes.

@JohnDiMartino Месяц назад

Not what I was expecting, I thought the 2.7 Colorado would have cleaned house. Only thing predictable was the Jeep dead last. I thought the Toyota and Ranger would have been close but not even in the same ballpark. You can see Ford knows how to program that 10 speed watch it jump forward every time it shifts next to its opponent. The 10 speed probably has more to do with the win than you’d think.

@@bladeftw6378 The V6 exceeds the torque of I4 versions greatly (310 vs 400 ft-lb of torque). The GM 2.7 doesn't really make more torque except on paper. It doesn't show up in the real world. The GM 2.7 4cyl also sucks fuel like a V8.

It's disappointing all around. Slower than the Ford, bad payload, bad towing, worst legroom and highest priced. Made in Mexico vs made in USA. But they fixed the seating position 😂

Awesome show again and good to see comparison. However, we have a Ridgeline truck and find it more than fast enough, great handling in year round drive, off road adventures we do, towing we do, and things we carry in bed, be it new furniture and appliances or dump run items. It's all we need. The others are awesome, but we don't need more ground clearance and traxda offers 1.5" to maybe 3" leveling/lift kits if we wanted and rims and tires options available. We have All weather winter rated All terrain Nokian Rotiiva tires which is great for us. We did notice less sporty than summer tires especially carving corners around lake superior which you guys should do some testing.

@MrRitchiecraig Месяц назад

Great video guys..... well done. It looks like the Turbo charged.Four cylinders can outdo the normally aspirated six cylinder. But honestly they were not that far apart. It'll be interesting to see the towing test though I will suggest the Ranger will take it. Ford has figured out how to get the torque down low and match the transmission to it. It is pretty cool that we have such a selection of mid size trucks that are very capable. You used to give up a lot of ability with the mid-size over a full size but not as much anymore.

@petenelson8136 Месяц назад

My son's got a Ranger, he'll be happy to see it finished 1st. We're going to look at and possibly buy a Catalina 25 (that's a sailboat) today, so lets hope it does as well towing as it did on the drag race. We'll certainly find out ourselves how well it tows with it weighing right at 6,000 lbs with the trailer boat and gear. His 2023 Ranger is 7500 lbs and his truck's door sticker says it has a 1443 lb payload capacity so we're good on both of those. If we buy it well certainly find out how it tows as we have a 3 hr drive from Lexington KY back to Indianapolis IN.

It should do fine at that weight. It's not a weight I'd tow daily or a couple times a week. A couple times a month will be fine but I'd change the oil a little earlier during boating season. On the highway I'd use 8th gear.

The newer direct injected Nissan V6s are severely underrated in horsepower. We had a Pathfinder with the 3.5 Liter version this Frontier 3.8 and it was an absolute screamer "on the cams". That 310 hp rating on the Frontier is a worst case scenario on crappy octane gas on a hot day. Probably more like 325 after a good break in. Admittedly, the Pathfinder was awful with the CVT but that engine tried its heart out. If Nissan wanted to throw down they could put the GT-R engine in the Frontier.
