2006 Nissan
Frontier is Big, Bold and Powerful, Offers Full-Size Hardware in a
Mid-Size Truck
The 2006 Nissan
Frontier pickup, which was completely redesigned for 2005, positions
Nissan squarely in the midsize pickup market. The Frontier includes
a number of features shared with the Nissan Titan, including its
rugged suspension design, innovative factory-applied spray-on
bedliner, Utili-track bed channel tie-down system and fully boxed,
all-steel frame based on the Titan's F-Alpha platform.
'The award-winning
Titan sets the standard for innovation in pickup design, regardless
of size. Titan, in turn, set the tone for the creation of the
Frontier,' said Mark McNabb, vice president and general manager,
Nissan Division. 'With the Titan and the Frontier, we're solidifying
Nissan's truck presence in both the full-size and mid-size truck
segments – essentially giving buyers the same tough truck in large
and extra large.'
