3. I assume that there is a trailer wiring adapter available for the Frontier. Is that true?
Thanks...

Can't answer #1 or #2, but for #3, I'm pretty sure I've seen the wiring harness (no splicing type -- attaches between the stock plugs & sockets) for $30 from JC Whitney. I imagine you could pick them up at a local camper dealer too. I used one of those harnesses in my mini-van and really liked it.
I have a question though. I haven't looked to see what the bumper is rated for yet, but I was hoping to tow my small utility trailer (probably no more than 2000 lbs) using a ball attached to the bumper. Have you thought of that or is anyone else doing that?
