Car and Driver

The 2008 Nissan Frontier has many different features to appeal to a wide range of buyers.

Some features in the 2008 Nissan Frontier are completely off the menu, like a regular-cab version, many reviews note. Other features, like the utility bed package, make up for that omission. As Cars.com points out, the utility bed package is "now standard on Nismo-equipped King Cab Frontiers." This feature supplies the truck with a spray-in bed liner, as well as a "Utili-track" tie-down system.

There are also other features available, including a choice of wheel sizes going all the way up to 17 inches.

A limited-slip differential, leather seats, a high-powered Rockford Fosgate audio system, and a choice of either XM or Sirius Satellite Radio can be ordered. For 2008, Nissan's Frontier also offers Bluetooth.

Edmunds observes that "options packages get automatically lumped together," which forces buyers to spend more money on an entire package even if there is just one single option they are interested in.

Conclusion

There are many features available for the 2008 Nissan Frontier, particularly utility features for the bed.

Other Choices:

Mid-size trucks from other manufacturers mimic the 2008 Nissan Frontier's wide range of features. The Dodge Dakota comes in two- and four-door versions, with V-8 engines available and four-wheel-drive packages for more serious duty. The Toyota Tacoma offers a big V-6 engine, a special off-road version, and even a sport-tuned edition. The Honda Ridgeline comes in one four-door configuration and one V-6/automatic combination, but its cubby-laden interior and highly functional truck bed make up for its odd styling and not-quite-full-size bed.
