I actually was given a Fronteir as a rental while my Ranger was in a Geico repair shop in a Nissan dealership. It had a 4.0 in it and the truck preformed well for the three days i had it. Very nice trucks inside and out but im still bias to my Ranger and Ford in general. Nothing beats the Ford power off the lot or in aftermarkent options.
