there way out there 1610 pounds maximum torque that must be this one this guy's got his gopro what's going on looking at trucks look for a hail [Laughter] this will be the newest in like september they'll be coming out that's the rock creek but it's a pathfinder is a limited edition one okay i'm more looking for trucks what's new about these um right there becky can tell you all about that okay hi becky how are you good i'm looking at trucks uh what's new with the nissans frontier was the full redesign last year so the 22 was the full body style change 22 this year because it's 22. yeah this came out last fall though but that's oh okay okay so can you walk me through and just show me because are you looking for a compact truck is that what you're supposed to do i'm just looking okay i'm just looking for i'm just doing a comparing contrast of all the different trucks what's out there what what nissan has because i'm not familiar with them and i don't care if it's a big truck or a little truck as long as you can put it to work and make a living with it that's what i'm looking at okay are you two are you trying to do this on camera or yeah [Laughter] well it's a little too late becky i'm sorry is this a standard trim level pro 4x yes so this will be the four wheel drive or the operated i forgot yeah you can get leather like a leather package added onto it instead if you want to okay um yeah but it'll come in a king cab crew cab so the king cab would be like the cab and a half so if you're going to no longer if that actually is house you can get the crew cab with long bed virgin too so you can get a full four doors plus a longer bed oh you can that's an option yep okay that was a big deal a lot of people you know they want room for five passengers but they also want to be able to use what do we what are we running this with what's the power plant in them um this one's actually a 3.8 liter v6 across the board so that's you know that's the only engine available it's 310 horsepower um it'll actually tow up to like 6 700 pounds okay so it gets good towing and capability and everything like that too so and it'll come obviously four-wheel drive or two-wheel drive what what does a model like this run for price-wise 40 as is 40 as is for a base model like this how about availability again it depends on dealerships and what we have in stock i don't know i can't really give you i mean have you heard that you six months out three months out like if i wanted to buy a ford f350 forget it the guy just told me just forget it you can't buy it he said you see this truck right here you can't buy that truck you don't have that issue not as far as i've heard i've been able to get these pretty ready what do you mean you're building them here in the u.s like we built them in a plant i know but where oh mississippi so nissan is actually built in the united states we have lots of vehicles built here i would say probably eighty percent of what we saw there as well here we have a big plant in smyrna tennessee and a big plant in canton mississippi and our headquarters is based down in nashville so like in like franklin tennessee is where any sun north america is based out of i had no clue oh yeah i thought you were coming from communist china hey so you're saying that's not a work truck it's a work truck if you can make a living with it it's a work truck that's my that's my no but it does feel kind of light and flimsy now it's built really strong it just doesn't fall like a lot of the beds that are really heavy no but just watch your fingers becky hear that that's kind of a tinny just doesn't give you know i mean i'm i'm i'm picking but you know just the little things i noticed you know like when i'm driving down the road i'm kind of trying to tune in exactly and find out where that quality comes from or doesn't come from and you know i'm not picking on it i'm just saying noticing one that you can ride yeah they do okay no i'm good i don't i'm but thank you becky thank you very much and of course if you ever have a chance to come to the minnesota state fair it is i think but i believe the second largest fair in the united states i believe and one of the most popular exhibits is caterpillar kingdom but look at that creepy guy oh that just does not look right in so many ways just so ro if you were four years old and your parents were like hey bobby do you want to go to caterpillar kingdom and you walked up and you seen that fricker do you think you may have a nightmare maybe and maybe not want to go in and then when you get in all of a sudden all these bugs start landing all over you but you're not allowed to brush them off ah gee i don't know why caterpillar kingdom has traumatized so many little kids just can't it's truck week it's truck week it's all about trucks and any truck that makes you a living is what i consider to be a work truck so i don't care if it's a half ton three quarter ton one ton if it pays the bills and puts food on your table i consider that a truck that goes to work and so we're gonna be looking at all sorts all shapes all sizes all models we're not gonna well there's that a truck over there let's go see first year of of these can anybody kind of walk me through them because i'm not familiar with them at all but on camera um sorry sir i'm not on camera can't be on camera can any of you guys be on camera can you be on camera can you be on camera you can't be i'm currently filming yes blur them out can you be on camera no can you can you nobody can be on camera so it's great for tailgating limited edition in here okay so cargo space on the side there's also extra hooks where you can hook it on the side if you have an avt uh how big is this bed is this a four foot bed on it let me see the fountain on it now this is the highest trim package and this is brand new right this is unlimited hyper version it either comes in a 2.5 liter engine or a turbo engine of that really gonna get front wheel drive option or all-wheel drive option front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive next thing i ask is what's the price there you can see um this is the front wheel drive price if you want to get the all-wheel drive you'll just tag on about uh 1500 bucks to it if you want the all-wheel drive version and the mpg is right here where um where's the mpg just right 21-26 yeah okay also the seats go all the way up for more storage space back here of course this is supposed to be a pickup truck suv crossover that's sitting on a similar chassis to our tucson i'm gonna put it back down [Music] and this is the highest trim level and over here is the mid-level trim level okay same console the console hasn't changed right are we missing any options besides just some niceties like leather seats or anything like um that a few like safety features that you wouldn't get on the top level um you're going to get the 20 inch versus the 18 inch alloy wheels okay so just bigger wheels let's see that's a light up trunk technology the inside that you wouldn't be able to uh externally look for the next thing i asked was if the tonneau cover was lockable and found out that it is um and you don't want anyone to get into it uh-huh actually this isn't a bad truck that's not not bad the price range isn't bad either i mean we're what one is this one on this the seo premium right here um but it's probably it's all wheel drive so this will be like the 37 700 one um is this your first time at hyundai yeah for sure yeah we have a great warranty it covers all of our vehicles it's 10 years 100 000 miles 10 years 100 000 miles transferable answer i'm not quite sure that would be a question for your dealership to see people like that okay all right grace thank you yeah absolutely have a great day you too all right there we go
