Hi Dave nice vehicle...how much power does the 2.2 TD produce?
Wayne this Frontera is the same as the last one used here in Australia, but it only had the 3.2 Lt V6 petrol in it probably the same as the Rodeo in the States.

No yours is a Frontera disguised as a Rodeo.
Everywhere else in the world the Rodeo is a ute (mini truck)
not that it matters

Nowhere near enough, with all the extra gear on :evil: Too much electronics and vac pipes on also which cause niggly faults. Better off with 2.8 or 3.1 diesel ;)

V6 3.2 litre petrol here in England is a good motor but like you say thirsty :evil: A lot of guys get a LPG (Liquified petroleum gas ) kit fitted with underneath tank at rear, doubles mileage and over here LPG is half price of petrol :idea: 8-)
