I am a pround owner of a 2002 Nissan Frontier SE!!!

I have to confess, I was in the Toyota dealership yesterday.. test driving one of those new Prius vehicles.. I really liked it..

My Frontier works just fine... no problems with it..  but I got the itch to get a new vehicle. 

Someone talk me out of it!!!

Welcome to the group!...

Well as an owner of a 2008 Toyota be prepaired for recalls. Toyota has a LONG history of hiding crap. But we happened to be at a Toyota dealership on the wifes birthday... I liked the Accord and Altima better. This throttle by wire really sucks... It takes two or three seconds for the engine to deside to go after you push down on the accelerater. BWT it's the accelerater we still are waiting to get replaced by the recall. They are also going to reflash the computer... guess why... No... The computer didn't make the engine run wide open... sure!

Those silly people will soon be having steering and brakes by wire!  

Have a good one. Don S..

Thanks Don!

After doing some research, and checking my bank acct.  I've decided to just pass for now on getting anything.. I still love my truck, and it is running great!!

Tell me, Don.. is your Prius for you, or your wife?

It's the wifes 4 banger Camry. We've had it 2.5 years. Don't drive it much so we haven't crashed and burned... yet... only has 2,500 miles on it...  Fixin' to take it in for the 5th oil filter change. We may never buy another vehicle again because of all the computerizing of stuff. 

Take care... Don S..
