I received my first truck a couple of years ago which was a 2000 Nissan Frontier 2wd 4 cylinder automatic. I've had to put some TLC into it, and i still do, but it's been a really good and reliable vehicle. People have been giving me shit for driving it ever since i started driving it. What's your experience with the 2000 Frontier models and from a mechanics point of view are they as reliable as mine or did i just get lucky?
That was right as Nissan was getting bought out by Renault, so their automatics were a lot better made than today. It was a pretty good vehicle back in the day.
As @justin-shepherd said, they were built better back then.
I had one friend that got 300k on his, and he sold it running fine.
Let them talk all they want, yours could well outlast many of the new ones being made right now.
