![]() PickupTruck.com and AutoPacific.com just released the list of the Top Ten Most Significant Trucks of the Decade and guess who makes 20% of 'em? Thats right, Nissan claimed 2 spots on the list. "These trucks introduced new innovations, pushed the segment into new territory and made the competition sweat while helping their driver’s sweat less." Our two are; 2000 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab Why it’s significant: First compact pickup truck to offer four full-size doors and a configuration that prioritized passenger space over cargo capacity. 2004 Nissan Titan Why it’s significant: The first true full-size half-ton pickup truck from a Japanese automaker. Japanese car companies had successfully entered almost every segment of the U.S. car and truck markets except the unique domain of the North American full-size pickup truck when Nissan unveiled the 2004 Titan. Sure, Toyota marginally stuck its toes in the segment with its T100 pickup in 1993, but the T100 was too small and underpowered to be a serious contender. (ha ha ha ha ha....oh, um... sorry bout that toyota :) Read the whole list here and use the comments to tell me what trucks YOU think made the most impact this decade.
