I find this impressive as Chicago weather is incredibly rough on vehicles. My 2005 Highlander is rusted out due to Chicago weather. Sounds like he got his money worth!
with the exception of the earlier automatic-oil cooler issue frontiers are pretty solid. still no problematic DI + my 2011 is a stick with the proven 4.0 V-6, good power + decent mpg's whats not to like. they are a best buy being thousands less than others! the fronty is more midsized not like the cramped overpriced Toco's, can't believe people pay what they ask!!!
And yet my 09 with a 2.5 burns around a quart of oil every 1k with impeccable service. My 03 which should have used oil used none when it was totaled at 176k. I actually thought that car would have run a million miles. I replaced nothing outside of brakes and tires.
Honestly if you hit a million miles in a certain vehicle, the company should give you 75% off your next one or something like that. Sure they'd lose money but think of the positive publicity and recognition from the public.

I'm thinking about a Frontier for my next car purchase. Probably one from the current generation, unless a newer one really knocks my socks off. Even though it's been roughly the same since about 2004, there's just something about them that I like. Having a reliable drivetrain doesn't hurt, either.
