Choosing the right pickup truck is not an easy task, especially when the choice is between the 2022 Toyota Tacoma and the 2022 Nissan Frontier. While the Tacoma carries over its instantly recognizable mid-size pickup truck design for the 2022 model year, it is now more capable and better equipped for more epic adventures. The all-new Nissan Frontier has gone for a complete redesign, making it more in line with the former's styling. However, if you're wondering which pickup truck would be better for you in Pocatello, ID, you might want to consider getting the 2022 Toyota Tacoma. Why? In this comparison overview from Phil Meador Toyota, we'll take you through some critical specs and key features of both trucks to help you decide which one might better fit your needs.

Absolutely! The Tacoma is a versatile pickup truck designed for the outdoors, and it's got a rugged design and better fuel economy than the Nissan Frontier. And although the 2022 Toyota Tacoma does not match the 2022 Nissan Frontier's engine specs on paper, it gives you the option of two efficient engines that make just enough power and torque to suffice all your pickup needs. Additionally, the Toyota Tacoma has more interior space for people and better towing capacity. And while both these trucks come in 4X2 rear-wheel drive or 4X4 four-wheel-drive variants, the Tacoma offers Toyota's advanced 4WDemand part-time 4WD with electronically controlled transfer case and automatic limited-slip differential, making it more practical for daily commuting and occasional off-roading.
