I remember seeing an old review video on frontiers and tacomas and..something else that sucked.
They said the Frontier was a nicer truck on the road, but the taco won hands down offroad. I believe it now due purely to ground clearance.
You just gonna have to work more for it
Jeus...3.36...******...haha Im on 5.29s..haha

So really your over all drive ratio..stupid tall compared to mine. Even stock when i had 4.10s.
Odd indeed..
You'll find out!
Haha sounds about right. I love how my truck drives in pretty much all situations. I've driven a Taco before on the road, and even knowing how much lower the Frontier is, I'd still pick a Frontier, for various reasons. The Tacoma may have another leg up on the Frontier offroad. Where's the power band on those things? My only complaint about the offroad performance of my truck is that the power happens higher in the rev range than I'd like.
Ground clearance aside, I really think the difference between the Frontier and the Taco is really splitting hairs.
Haha I'll just be using my armor more than you I guess!
Yep. So maybe what sounds like a stupid tall ratio for you might not be for me hahaha.
