CAR REVIEW: Finally, a new Frontier

Prior to the ’22 remodel, the Nissan Frontier was the tuna and Jell-O salad at a potluck — fine for those who like it, but wildly outdated. The Frontier hadn’t undergone any major revamping since the previous generation was introduced in 2005. For perspective, one of the top-grossing films of that year was within the Star Wars franchise, and another was an action movie starring Tom Cruise. Okay, maybe those aren’t the best example to mark the passage of time.

Regardless, Nissan’s midsize truck was in desperate need of an overhaul, and though it took the better part of two decades to make it happen, there is finally a new Frontier. That’s from Star Wars, right?
