2022 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X Review and Off-Road Test

I like the review (and turning radius is definitely the worst thing). But, as a 2022 frontier owner, I'm frustrated that off-road youtube reviewers don't understand the running boards. They're actually dual purpose rock rails with removable steps attached. If you're going to off-road this thing, take the steps off and the rock rail will help protect the truck without the loss of clearance.

I love the infotainment display, it's not overbearing, isn't required for most functions, and allows for still a majority of tactile buttons to be used over the touch screen. Very practical and a lot safer than some of the infotainment displays that displace safer buttons while driving. Have to give Nissan props for that.

I just bought one and absolutely love it so far. Its on-road manners are great (quiet, smooth shifting, no gear hunting), and off road it’s impressive.

Great review 👍🏻. Considered one of these until the dealer slipped in a $5k “Market Adjustment”. Can’t wait til these dealers go belly up

I love mine, bought it last September. The 4wheel drive system does well in bad weather. I have to be honest, most of the issues that people seem to have with this truck don't apply to me. I'm not concerned about backup cameras or the most up-to-date technology. It's a pickup truck not a luxury vehicle luxury vehicle. If you want the finest luxuries get a sports car.

Not having different drive modes is a huge plus in my book.

Thanks for another great review. Just took the Frontier for a test drive and wow I was very impressed. I think a Frontier will be in my driveway soon.

Love my Pro4-x, it’s a 19, it’s got the 4.0, a little less MPG. Bought it with 7k miles, now I have about 21k after about 2 years of ownership, there is a reason NISSAN stuck with the same platform for 15 years and then barley changed their motor, to make it even better. I always have said the Frontier is the average man’s Tacoma, the Frontier really gained some traction with the new 22 and put it back on the map, great video man

I've been waiting for this vid for ages! Just sat down with my morning coffee, what perfect timing!

Thank you for testing this truck on your channel, love it.

I’ve been waiting for this one. Nice color too!

As an owner of a 2021 Titan Pro4x, I love these smaller versions. Very underrated.

I have the 2023 Baja Storm 4X and I love it! I had a 2002 Silverado 4x4 for 20 years and it was in my opinion irreplaceable. I was wrong, my son has that truck now and I have this. My only complaint is that there is NO telescoping steering wheel (I am 6'4"). But hey small price to pay for a non turbo charged modern V6. I despise turbos as I see them come through my shop constantly for overheats, block issues etc... Glad I was able to snatch this little beauty up. I'm almost 50 now so this will be the last truck I buy. It will become an heirloom IMO.

Great review. It's making me consider buying it as I have an Xterra and it's been great.

Not so keen on this Nissan but can't miss one of your videos. Keep up the great work!

I now have a 2021 Frontier. Had a 2010 frontier for 10 years. They are known for a poor turning radius. TFL did a test and a 4WD F-150 had a significantly tighter turning radius, and it tied a 4WD RAM 2500. Still love my truck. I had my 2010 off road numerous times and it ALWAYS took me wherever I wanted to go. I was tail end charlie on a group of 4x4 trucks. I kept having to stop at the bottom of an uphill to allow the guys in front of me to make it up the muddy roads, as even with all the latest tech ( I had the oldest vehicle in the 2010 ), they were spinning wheels and slinging mud everywhere. I was worried someone would get stuck in front of me. Once they got out of the way (barely in some cases), I'd kick it into 4 low, get it moving, and let it tootle on up the hill w/o all the wheel spinning. And I didn't even have the rear end locked. Surprised a guy that took that "road" regularly. I wouldn't get the running boards either. Those are for mall crawlers, not off road. I'd go with after market REAL rock sliders instead. Even with the steps off, they still reduce the clearance where honest to God rock sliders leave it almost the same. One of my son's has a lifted 2019 4WD F-150. We went elk hunting here in Colorado, and he was shocked at how sure footed that little truck was. I went places w/o question that he admitted he'd have had second thoughts about taking his truck. Never had to engage the locker. My oldest son was so impressed by my old Frontier that he bought a 2022 when they came out.

The available nismo/billstien leveling kit & upgraded even better billstien shocks dramatically improves both on road & off road comfort & handling especially when fitted with the nismo alloy wheels that only weigh a fraction of stock or otherwise opted wheels it really wakes the truck up with quite a noticeable difference you can get these upgrades at dealership thru nismo & still spend less $ than a trd pro it's more than well worth the investment

Sold my tacoma and bought this truck. Drives and feels 10 times better than the taco. Not to mention lifetime powertrain warranty!

Bought an s model trim 4x4 , drives great, I had a Titan before. Never had a small truck before but I’m really happy with it. Changed the rims and getting a line x spray in bed liner.

This truck is a home run in my opinion. 👍
