2005 Nissan Frontier Overview
The larger, more powerful 2005 Nissan Frontier pickup, which is offered in both King Cab and Crew Cab body configurations, has more than a passing resemblance to the recently introduced Nissan Titan full-size pickup. Along with its modern, rugged styling, the all-new Frontier – which goes on sale at Nissan dealers nationwide in winter 2004 – shares a number of significant features with Titan, including its rugged suspension design, innovative spray-in bedliner, Utili-track™ bed channel tie-down system and fully boxed,
all-steel frame based on the Titan platform.
The 2005 Frontier shares its suspension layout and many component designs with Titan, including an all-steel double-wishbone front suspension and rigid leaf rear suspension with overslung leaf springs and a long suspension stroke for optimized off-road ride. Frontier also offers standard power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering and 4-wheel disc brakes with Anti-lock Braking System (ABS).
The 4.0-liter V6 design includes Continuous Valve Timing Control (C-VTC), Nissan variable Induction Control System (NICS), silent timing chain, microfinished camshaft and crankshaft surfaces, molybdenum-coated pistons, resin intake manifold, digital knock control system, cross flow engine coolant pattern, high capacity muffler, lightweight aluminum block and platinum-tipped spark plugs. The Frontier V6 will be assembled at Nissan's advanced engine production facility in Decherd, Tenn.
