I'm replying to a month-old thread, but....For the past 5 years, I towed a X23b with a 2005 Pathfinder, which is basically the same vehicle as the Frontier in question here. Family of 6, 3 of the children are still small. :) Recently sold the Pathfinder after 165K miles; it was a solid vehicle, still in excellent mechanical shape when I sold it. It's longest haul was to the Black Hills. All that said, I am much happier towing with our new '17 Expedition. The Pathfinder let you know that the trailer was back there; high RPM's, loud engine, speed drop on hills...Best towing was in 3rd gear with the engine screaming at 3500-4000 rpms. And also had to watch the trans temp, though honestly it was never an issue--just more that it was high enough to get me paranoid. LOL if your camping trips are mostly local, flat lands, the Frontier will be fine. Hit some hills though, and you'll wish for something bigger. :) By comparison, the Expedition hums along silently with the X23b in tow, and the trans temp barely budges from the unloaded norm.
