The aftermarket support for the Nissan isn't anywhere near as good as it is for the Toyota. You may have options but the Tacoma has options on top of options within each category and each one is a viable option. Not saying you can't get some good stuff for your truck because you can but you stated it was just like the Toyota and it's not. Just par for the course based on units sold though.

    I wasnt really trying to compare to toyota, more so to the other car based rigs out there. The wife wanted a new cherokee but I dont want all the electronics and the fact that it is completely new this year and has tranny issues. The only thing toyota has over nissan is for the stupid "for looks" crap. If you are talking serious wheeler you can build a nissan just as good as a toyota. The frontier and xterra have essentially the same frame as the titan. Actually a popular swap is the titan front diff and suspension. Gets you four inches or so of lift and a lot more travel, and it bolts on. Even a few people working on bolting in the titan v8. so far they found it needs a few plugs rewired and it will basically bolt in also.

    Toyota haws been living off their reputation for years and you pay handsomely for it. Whether or not is is worth it is up to you.

    p.s. I also own a toyota tacoma. Its a 3.4 motor one and I liked it fine. Its actually for sale, if you know anyone who wants a 2000 with 110,000 miles.
