I have to say, I found the Nismo to be a harsher ride compared to the se/le versions of the vehicle. And since I won't be taking it off-road much, I felt comfort was a prevailing factor in my dicision.
Two errors I noticed in the previous post. Nissan does recommend premium fuel in the frontier for "optimum" performance in the manual. I however have been runnin 87 octane for the past month with little or no performance or gas mileage hits.
second (and I may be wrong on this

. The se/Nismo do not come with the "keyless" entry. The truck IS prewired for it and it can be purchased and installed as an option. IT is a "standard" feature with the LE.
Now, all things considered. I was able to purchase my LE CC with leather for about the same price as the se with all options (no leather) once I was thru working with the dealer. Two points here: I was pre-approved for a vehicle, so I didn't have to hassle with dealer financing. And I was willing to walk out the door if I didn't get what I want.
And for all of you "roof" rack detractors

, I've already used it three times in the 1 1/2 months I've had the truck.
