Nissan Frontier Named #1 Best Truck for Tailgating
The Nissan Frontier PRO-4X earned the top spot in the USA TODAY Sports Readers’ Choice Awards, adding another reason for Montana truck buyers to take a closer look at Frontier.
Football season and truck season go hand in hand in Montana, and the Nissan Frontier PRO-4X just earned a major reason to celebrate. It was voted #1 Best Truck for Tailgating in the USA TODAY Sports Readers’ Choice Awards.
For drivers shopping for a midsize pickup at Clark Nissan in Kalispell, Montana, the award highlights something Frontier owners already know: this truck is built for work, weekends, road trips, game days and Montana adventures.
Why the Nissan Frontier Is Built for Game Day
A great tailgate needs more than a parking space. You need room for coolers, chairs, grills, gear and everything else that makes game day memorable.
The Nissan Frontier is available with a six-foot cargo bed, giving owners useful space for tailgating equipment and everyday hauling. Available 120-volt power outlets can help power accessories, while an available 10-speaker Fender® Premium Audio system helps bring the soundtrack.
More Than a Tailgating Truck
The same features that make Frontier useful on game day also make it a practical truck for everyday life in Northwest Montana.
- Available six-foot cargo bed for gear and hauling
- Available 120-volt power outlets
- Available Fender® Premium Audio
- Strong midsize truck towing capability
- PRO-4X capability for off-road adventures
Up to 7,150 Pounds of Towing Capability
Frontier isn't just about convenience. It's a capable midsize pickup designed to work.
When properly equipped, the Nissan Frontier offers up to 7,150 pounds of towing capacity, giving drivers the capability to bring along trailers, recreational equipment and other gear.
For Northwest Montana drivers, that kind of versatility matters whether you're heading toward the lake, the mountains, the jobsite or a weekend away from Kalispell.
Frontier Is Also One of America's Fastest-Growing Pickups
The tailgating award isn't the only reason the Frontier is getting attention. Nissan reports that Frontier has also been one of the fastest-growing pickups in the United States based on recent retail sales growth.
That growing popularity supports a simple message: more drivers are taking another look at Nissan.
Built With Long-Term Reliability in Mind
Awards are exciting, but reliability matters even more when you're buying a truck.
According to Nissan, 92% of Frontier pickups sold during the last decade are still on the road today, based on vehicle registration data. That's an encouraging statistic for drivers who plan to keep their truck for years.
Frontier's standard 3.8-liter V6 engine also helps give it traditional truck character, with strong naturally aspirated performance and the kind of straightforward capability many midsize truck buyers still prefer.
Frontier PRO-4X: Ready Beyond the Parking Lot
The PRO-4X may have won an award for tailgating, but its appeal goes far beyond the stadium parking lot.
For Montana drivers, PRO-4X is built for camping trips, trailheads, fishing weekends, winter roads and the kind of recreation that starts where the pavement ends.
That means the same truck hauling coolers and chairs on Saturday can carry outdoor gear on Sunday and get you to work on Monday.
The Nissan Frontier Is Built for Real Life
Winning the USA TODAY Sports Readers’ Choice Award for Best Truck for Tailgating is fun, but it also speaks to Frontier's broader strength: versatility.
The cargo bed that works for game-day gear also works for home projects. The available power outlets that are useful at a tailgate can come in handy at a campsite. The towing capability that brings equipment to the stadium can also help bring recreational gear along for a Montana weekend.
And the rugged Frontier PRO-4X that looks at home outside a football stadium looks just as natural on a mountain road.
