I'm thinking of buying a Frontier...

No, it's not just for 'stupid looks crap' where the Tacoma surpasses the Frontier in aftermarket support. You say the Nissan has just as much aftermarket support as the Tacoma and then go on to detail how most will source OEM Titan parts for a lift... how do you suppose that came to be? Out of necessity. In the end you still have an OEM suspension it's just an OEM suspension made for a larger truck which also has it's inherent downsides on that truck and adds even more downside when adding it to a truck it wasn't designed for. Just like people earlier were saying spacers are fine for a lift on a Nissan. Spacers are NEVER an ideal solution for a truck lift and are used purely for aesthetics on a budget at the sacrifice of your suspension geometry and reliability. These are all compromises that are made out of requirement when the aftermarket support isn't there. Meanwhile there are dozens of options for lifting a Tacoma (for instance) at various heights and each one was designed FOR the truck and not only lifts it to look better but also is designed FOR the Tacoma to make it handle better both on and off road. You can't deny that the aftermarket support for the Tacoma for just about ANYTHING you could want to do is infinitely better than the Frontier... although it seems that's exactly what you're saying.

Yes, you generally do pay handsomely for the best. The challengers to the throne can be generally be had for larger bargains because that's all you have to sell when you're not the best.... 'we're cheaper!'

I am not sure what you are going for her but pretty much anything made for toyotas are also made for nissans. Same lifts, same wheels, same upgrades. the point I was trying to make with the titan stuff was that nissan uses a pretty tough frame on their small trucks. Unlike toyota who had major problem with their frames rusting in half. I know toyota fans thinks toyota is the king of all kings but that is rediculous. If you expect me to give you every available aftermarket part for nissan get a grip. How about you tell us something specifically that toyota has or does better and see if nissan can keep up. generalized statement about aftermarket support being better means nothing. Untill you own both and research both you have no idea.

There is really no point arguing as you obviously have your mind made up and have blocked out everything else.

I'm sorry but you are just wrong on this, not my opinion, but fact. Toyota has far more aftermarket support for the Tacoma than Nissan has for the Frontier/Xterra.
