Honda is known for quality, and every old Nissan I see falls apart. I hope this doesn’t tank the quality of Honda.

I don't drive Nissans but a family memebr of mine has forever I don't mind them and haven't seen too many issues, im just glad Mitsubishi isn't a large part of this, yet anyway.

My brother loves his xterra so much he is on his 3rd (first was an accident, second went to the ex in the divorce). I rarely ride in it, but it seems kinda like a rattle trap to me. I dont know how much of that is his abuse and how much is the car.

I'm on my 2nd Frontier as the first one was taken out by a red light are optional driver. My 2nd one I bought used for cheap because the previous owner didn't take care of it at all. Other than doing such a poor job trying to fix a head gasket leak I had to send the block to a machine shop to get an insert put in for a head bolt. It's also had low end knocking caused by worn bearing the whole time I've had it. I've put almost 100k on it and it just keeps trucking! It is a shitbox though, but it's MY shitbox lol

Gotta stay out of their way! They needed to coast through that light to keep the MPG above 40! 😂
