It's like saying Fiji is superior to Arrowhead. Yes, it is, but not by any huge discernible amount.
Plus, the Tacoma has a superior platform, aftermarket support and overall awesomeness
it gets slightly better mileage AND has some 30 more hp and 15lbft
there are more subtle differences too...the frontier has metal front and rear skid plates while the taco gets a plastic gas tank cover...kidding me?
