About Nissan Frontier Insurance
The Nissan Frontier is a mid-size truck from Nissan. Nissan is a Japanese automaker. Its U.S. line includes the Altima and Sentra sedans, the Rogue and Pathfinder SUVs, and the Frontier pickup.

The model year moves the price as well: a newer year costs more to replace, and an older year can lack the safety equipment that earns a discount.
