1996 Nissan Pickup Xe Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 2.4l, 85000 Miles on 2040-cars
Duluth, Minnesota, United States
|
Originally an Arizona vehicle, this Nissan has never seen a Minnesota winter. It has 84,400 miles as of this writing. I've always kept it garaged during the cold months. Runs great with no motor or drivetrain issues. I call it a "personal responsibility" vehicle as everything is so hands on with it - manual window cranks, no power anything, wheel hubs to lock and unlock, manual transmission. It's wonderfully "trucky" and rides like a lumber wagon on newer heavy duty shocks and Firestone Destination A/T tires. The only real concession to creature comfort is the AC, which works great. The best part about this truck though is the body. It was well worth a very thorough and very expensive paint job in 2011, at which time it also received a replacement bed since the old one had some issues. The vehicle is entirely rust free, and by that I mean no old rust damage or extra holes that have merely been repaired either. It is completely sound, including the floor pans, rocker panels, anyplace you can think of. All the paint work was done by a professional auto restoration firm in Minneapolis with the bed off and all the necessary bits and pieces removed, not just masked off. The wheels are reconditioned originals and look absolutely new. Overall a splendid old truck - it even still has its original factory tape player. Very clean and well maintained. It's just time for it to have a new home with someone who will care for it as well as I have. Now the disclaimer: This tuck is 18 years old. It's not perfect but certainly about as nice as you're likely to find. There are going to be odd nicks, dings and scratches here and there, maybe even a couple I haven't noticed. The interior probably ought to be refreshed eventually and the exhaust is good but has likely been in place since the vehicle was new, so it might be a good idea to think about replacing that down the road too. But really that's about it as far as I can see The pictures show everything pretty well so look at them carefully and ask any questions you have before bidding. Any sale is necessarily final. |

Ever wonder how to really pronounce Japanese automaker names?
Thu, 25 Sep 2014People tend to get very set in their ways when it comes to the pronunciation of words. Just look at the endless debates over whether or not to say the final 'e' in Porsche (which you should in terms of correct German enunciation). Or the argument about whether to follow the British convention and give the 'u' in Jaguar a special delivery or to say the 'ua' diphthong as more of a 'w' sound, as usually happens in the US.
This short video doesn't answer either of those automotive questions, but it does allow a native Japanese speaker to demonstrate the accepted pronunciations for several, major automakers from the country. One benefit is that it clears up the occasional debate over whether Nissan should be said with a long or short 'i' sound. Also, listen closely to how the female host says Mazda as Matsuda, the way it's actually said in the language. Even if this doesn't change the way you enunciate these brands, at least now you know the accurate way in Japanese.
Nissan Rogue redesigned with three rows for 2014
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Nissan has been on a roll lately, redesigning its core model line with all-new versions of the Altima, Pathfinder, Sentra and Versa Note released this year. But the Japanese automaker wouldn't leave out the Rogue, its second-best-selling model in the US.
Like the Range Rover Sport, Mitsubishi Outlander and Ford Explorer, the second-generation Nissan Rogue has gained an optional third row of seats for seven-passenger capability. Along with the middle and rear rows, the front passenger seat can also be folded flat for the benefit of cargo capacity, and the cabin has been redesigned for an airier look and feel.
Despite the added space inside, the new Rogue is only marginally larger than the model it replaces, with a 0.6-inch longer wheelbase offset by shorter overhangs front and rear. A lower drag coefficient ought to help reduce wind noise and improve fuel consumption as well.
Nissan, Toyota offering payment deferments to people affected by government shutdown
Tue, 15 Oct 2013Two weeks into the budget-related government shutdown and it sounds like some progress is finally being made, but that doesn't really help furloughed government employees pay their bills. To help out a little, Nissan and Toyota are joining Hyundai with offering payment deferments to current owners and lessees.
In a release, a Nissan spokesperson said the company is "sympathetic to any of our customers who find themselves in difficult financial circumstances - many times outside of their control."
Both Japanese automakers are allowing payment extensions of up to 90 days without penalties or fees. Unlike the Hyundai Assurance Plan, though, it doesn't seem like the Nissan or Toyota assistance will be extended to those who are still in the buying process. Scroll down for press releases from both companies about their respective payment deferment programs.
