I went from a '17 Tacoma to a '22 Frontier. I absolutely hated the Taco. Uncomfortable, terrible engine power, a clueless transmission which was always gear hunting. Averaged 17mpg. Just awful to drive every day.
The Frontier is more comfortable, more powerful, better fuel economy, better trans programming and additional gearing. Same size as the Taco. 34K miles without issue. We’ll see if it lasts 250K, but I couldn’t stand the Taco. I parked it unlocked on the street hoping someone would steal it. No luck.
Same exact move I made and I agree on everything you said. The Taco really rides on reputation but it’s actually pretty crap. Not that that will matter to the fanboys but fanboys gonna’ fanboy.

What kind of mileage are you getting from the Frontier? Looks like folks on Fuelly are getting around 18.
