frontier offroad abilities

hi im sellign my firebird and im looking at getting a frontier crew cab supercharged 4wd. i live in colorado and so i want to be able to go off roading in it. what are the capabilities of this truck, i want to do some fairly serious off roading on trails mostly. the truck i am looking at has all terrain tires already but what will it be able to handle. im not looking at doing any major upgrades so i have been trying to decide if i should go with a jeep or if the frontier wil be able to handle the general moderate to hard trails. id appreciate any info or opinions thanks.

Re: frontier offroad abilities

Frontiers have awsome offroad capabilities right from the factory. I would NOT recommend the SC model as it does not add much power, but does require premium gas. The crewcabs would be a bit on the long side for serious offroading. The original equipment tires are the 31x10.5 size, but I believe you could put 33's on them. Might have to do a body lift or suspension lift to clear the front fenders.

Re: frontier offroad abilities

i own a 04 frontier 4x4 sc crew cab and let me tell ya it works good. totally stock except for a set of MT/R's. i love fourwheelin and it will keep up with the jeeps, but it isn't the most practial vechile of choice. its tooo long and lacks groundclearance and a ifs is a major weak point in offroadin. although i am courentley installing a 3" lift and bigger tires, i will still continue to go out there and get stuck,keep up with others, and have a ball but the truck is to prity, works to good and has too many electronics on it foe what you want to do.
I would recomend a jeep with some upgrades for a more practial rig.
