Buying the 2000 Nissan Frontier
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2000 Nissan Frontier; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. This page sets out the 2000 Nissan Frontier for buyers, in plain words.
A buyer's checks
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
Engine and fuel
The powertrain to know here is the 2.4L 4-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
It is rated at 11.2 L/100 km combined, so budget about 34 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $173.60 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,200 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Living with the Frontier
A pickup is long and tall, so plan for parking and low garages.
Who the Frontier suits
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the Frontier for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent the Frontier first, and buy only if it fits your life. If the Frontier is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Money matters
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $173.60 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$3,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Narrowing it down
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
Send a request
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
Rent it for a week before you buy
