those are hardcore my favorite style trucks. i had to choose between an 84 chevy lifted 8 inches sittin on 38s with a brand new 350 and the V. obviously i picked the v cause it was brand new but my next vehicle will deffinately be a build of a 78 - 87 chevy/gmc. glory days of trucks imo.

I wouldn't buy anything made by GM, made by a union which is junk. Probably get a Frontier or Titan instead.

I'm a big fan of the Rogue - so round and bubbly and I love the front grille

not to offend the nissan crew but american trucks win. thats why the majority of old trucks you see on the road are gmc/chevy and ford. 30 years and still strong.

Ya I guess your right.

I'm just not a big fan of GM products. Some of the Buick's and GMC's I think are gorgeous, but I love Nissan's new line up of vehicles. They are beautiful.
Considering my dad's GM vehicles are super old and still running proves your point.

:lol: ya trucks and SUV's are too big for me too. I love small compact cars. Trust me, when I bought my Versa I thought it was HUGE, I had to have my brother and mom direct me into the garage because it felt as though it wasn't going to fit. My previous car was even tinier which is what made my Versa feel so big. Now it feels perfect

It suits my style perfectly, and is just the right size for me, i love it.

I had the same issue - it felt so high up and there was so much SPACE in the back! You're right though, now it's purrrrfect

Are you and that other kid retarded? I don't mean any offense. I hope you know you are starting a war between domestic and import, and it is stupid. What you guys are saying is BIASED. I think if we used logic and statics. It would be easy to figure out how wrong you guys are. Just my point is what you guys are saying is opinion not fact, and you are both young. Which makes your statements come as cocky and arrogant. If you make a rebuttal to this its kinda pointless, I didn't argue about anything. I just want to get across how I feel about your opinion, and that I think falsehoods and libel are very bad on a forum. Keep the facts straight. Thanks.

Lol! Glad someone else can relate! :lol: Now I don't feel so dumb, lol.

Honestly the first day I got it my mom had to direct me in the garage. Well a few hours later my older brother came by to see it and wanted me to pull it out of the garage. I think my brothers must have been laughing because it took me forever to back her out. I thought I was going to hit something, haha!
Now I back her in everywhere no problem! Love parking her now

i will agree that the argument between import and domestic is stupid and i will agree that (and i speak for myself here) i am biased. i was however referring to nissans truck market and not imports as a whole. that being said, it is infinitely easier to build an old chevy/gm or ford with a massive availability of parts for lower prices than foreign vehicles. hence my bias towards american. easier to find parts, inexpensive due to the popularity of the old work truck, and you still end up with a very capable off roading vehicle. not that it isnt possible with imports. this IS my opinion and my reasoning for it.

Growing up, my dad always had at least one full size 4x4, I love 'em. Also had an 81 Rabbit pickup diesel, same time as the 72 Datsun. So recently I found the all-in-one VW Amarok diesel truck...not available in Canada of course

It wouldn't be cheap to buy, but I would "drive it forever" Sigh...at least dreams are still free

Nice Truck! I would love to find an 87.

I love my Silverado 3500. 340,000 km (211,000miles) and still going strong!
