I put over 100,000 miles on a Nissan hard body (predecessor to the Frontier). In those 100,000 miles, the only problem I had was something breaking in one of the rear brakes. It cost me a little over $100 to repair. I look forward to being able to buy another Nissan vehicle. I thoroughly enjoyed my previous one. I no longer own it as it was totalled in a collision... -Erik On 11/21/05, Josh Coffman wrote: > > > > --- Darrin Chandler wrote: > > > Josh Coffman wrote: > > > > >... and now for something completely different (on > > the > > >sometimes useful discussion list). :) > > > > > >Hi all, > > > > > >I've been car-less for nearly a year.
