The Nissan Frontier was previously shortlisted in Overland Journal’s Mid-Size Overland Truck of the Year review article This platform was significantly older than the other vehicles on the test. Still, Scott Brady summarised that “maturity has its advantages, and in the case of the Nissan, that results in exceptional reliability and value.” It’s also worth noting that the Expedition Portal team has praised the latest iteration of the pickup in The New Frontier of Overlanding. The Frontier is not necessarily the first choice on our forum. However, it is widely considered a dependable adventure rig, which is why Expedition Portal selected it as a project vehicle. If you’d like to see how this truck can be outfitted for travel, then check out our feature on the Destination Frontier or see this budget camping rig on the Soft Roading the West YouTube channel. Today’s 2017 offering showcases tasteful modifications, a well-equipped Hiatus camper and is listed for $60,000 CAD.
From the Seller:
“I purchased this truck at 73,000 kilometers and have changed all fluids with high-quality full synthetic (except for the power steering). The truck has a rebuilt title from relatively minor front-end damage. All repairs were professionally completed and certified by ICBC (Insurance Corporation of British Columbia). This truck was used for camping and mountain biking trips and no hardcore off-roading [or] rock crawling. Bike rack not included in [the] price.”
