I wouldn't count the newest model of Frontier a small truck, its almost as big as the 1970 F350 I once owned. When I was looking at replacing my 99 Frontier I realized that for the options I needed (4 door long bed) the V-6 was the only way to go, the 2.4l was no longer sufficient to pull that much weight around.

As its looking we decided to keep our 99 until it gets so worn out that we start hesitating to drive it on long trips.

My only complaints about the one we have now is the low gears aren't as low as I need, the class 2 hitch bumper hasn't held up, and I need one with a larger back seat.
