2009 Nissan Frontier
If you want to go to a place where most roads don’t go and even some creatures fear to tread, then the Nissan Pro 4X4 is for you. The 4.0-Liter DOHC V-6 Engine with 261 Horsepower and 281 lb-ft-torque with a 5-speed automatic has the power to transmit your will upon the land.

While whispering promises of adventure, shift-on-the-fly 4WD System makes a smooth transition from modern road surface to primitive roads full of ruts. 4-Wheel Limited Slip and disc brakes add additional comfort to the independent front suspension that allows you to take on a road surface or open terrain that is generally unlikely for other off-road vehicles.

Just because the Frontier has Bilstein off-road performance shocks, oil pan transfer case, and fuel tank skid plate doesn’t mean that comfort and convenience were forgotten. There are 8-way driver’s seat with Lumbar support, and UV reducing windows that distribute comfort and safety to the max. Power windows and door locks, and remote keyless entry accompanied by power mirrors, cruise control and tilt steering give the comfortable characteristics of a luxury sedan or truck.

The Nissan Advanced Airbag System, pipe-style steel side-door guard beams and the Nissan Immobilizer System helps to reassure the driver of the safety and security of Frontier.

2009 Nissan Frontier
The steppes of the Wichita Mountains lie north and west of the city of Wichita Falls, Texas; then jump the Red River between Texas and Oklahoma to spread northward beyond the city of Lawton and become a full-blown mountain range. Millenniums ago these mountains, named after the more recent Wichita Indians, were the highest mountain range in the world. Today they command huge herds of buffalo, antelope, and deer, and some of the best off- road driving in the country.

So, travel into North Central Texas, cross the Red River and stop in Meers, Oklahoma for a buffalo burger. Take a day off and go off-roading in some of the most splendid country in America. Spend the night on Saddle Mountain listening to the coyotes call and enjoy the sounds of the wind walking across the prairie grasses. You will sleep well knowing that tomorrow brings more adventure as you find the blacktop and head back home.

The Nissan Frontier 4X4 Pro 4X sells for $29,950 and get 15 miles per gallon in the city and 19 on the highway.
