Excellent, that's just what I wanted to know for the year thing.
I SO agree about the ugliness of the first Frontier body! HIDEOUS front
end!
So no sides on the airbags period yet huh?
Seems they think people who drive trucks don't care about safety. All the
German sedans offer it, even VW.
Took trucks an extra 2-3yrs to get them even on the driver side vs cars.
Luckily, that's the only side I care about

NO S.O. or rodents to ride
around.
Do you know if the 97's offered leather or keyless entry (sometimes called
factory alarm, but has auto-doorlocks)?
If so, I now know I want 95-97! That helps in the search

Yeah, it's really a real address
>> Stay informed about: Did the Frontier ever offer leather? Keyless?
