Pure BS hype. Nice video however. My rule used to be old fords, new chevys. Now, hard not to like Toyota Suvs

My Nissan X-terra (same frame as the Frontier) OFF-ROAD model has more torque than I know what to do with (scary), and climbs sandhills almost as well
as that ad what with the factory lockers and BFG-AT tires and factory Bilstein shocks and Calmini suspension..
Wow, what a machine!!!!!

My Frontier will die if I don't feather the gas peddle before leaving a light.
Maybe the automatics with a torque convertor don't have the same problem as my six- speed. |
Perhaps your right on the "stick shift". My X-Terra is an automatic, a 2007, and off-the-line it is almost too peppy (chirps the tires sometimes if I
don't watch it). I have never pulled more than a luggage trailer (2000 lbs load) and it did just fine with it. It is very capable off road. I have
an '94 F-250 4x4 with a 460 gas engine, and the "X" is much more torquey than the Ford (3:55 diffs, tho in the Ford)
I love my "X" (but I love my Ford, too)

Amazing that the comments over there at U Tube, are debating "obviously its fake". It was a great video though
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

"Fake"??? "fake"????? I used to drive my '55 chevy coupe with big tires all over those dunes before there were "dune buggies" cluttering up the
landscape. Now, if you believe that then I have several other stories for you----------
