Nissan Frontier homecoming: Brian Murphy receives new truck, Million-Mile Frontier returns ‘home’
After more than a million miles of hard work, Brian Murphy’s 2007 Nissan Frontier is headed home.
Today, Murphy swapped his “Million-Mile” Frontier for a new 2020 Frontier at M’Lady Nissan in Crystal Lake, the same dealership where he bought his 2007 Frontier more than 13 years ago. The Million Mile Frontier will retire where it was assembled, the Nissan Smyrna Vehicle Assembly Plant in Smyrna, Tennessee.
Nissan first celebrated Murphy and his million miler during the reveal of the 2020 Frontier at the Chicago Auto Show in February. During a short ceremony on Tuesday, Nissan presented Murphy with a new 2020 Frontier, which is now available at select Nissan dealers nationwide with a starting MSRP1 of $26,790.
“Brian Murphy is the quintessential Frontier owner, so it’s fitting that he will be driving one of the first 2020 Frontier pickups in America,” said Craig Keeys, regional vice president, Nissan Midwest Region, Nissan North America. “Thank you, Brian, for illustrating the durability and reliability of the Frontier for more than 13 years and one million miles.”

Nissan Rear Door Alert now available on 12 models, including the affordable Versa, Sentra and Kicks
Nissan continues to demonstrate commitment to bringing important technologies to all by now offering its clever, yet simple, Rear Door Alert (RDA)1 technology on 12 models. This is tech that potentially can help reduce risks posed by dangerous interior car temperatures.
For model year 2020, RDA is standard on the Nissan Altima, Armada, Kicks (SV and SR), LEAF, Murano, Maxima, Pathfinder, Rogue, Rogue Sport, Sentra, TITAN (King Cab and Crew Cab) and Versa (SV and SR).
Introduced with the 2018 Pathfinder SUV, Nissan’s RDA technology was developed by a pair of Nissan engineers, who are also mothers, inspired by Nissan’s “culture of innovation.” RDA was the industry’s first system to use the horn, in addition to door sensors and a message display on the center instrument panel, to remind drivers to check the back seat after the vehicle is parked.
Nissan remains committed to bringing its RDA technology to all four-door trucks, sedans and SUVs by 2022.

Plus, they must have a clean, non-branded title and, most important, pass a comprehensive 167 points Certified Pre-Owned inspection.
As the world adapts its summer travel plans, many Americans are turning to recreational vehicles and boats as new ways to get out while maintaining safe distances. In fact, 71 percent of Americans are more comfortable traveling by car than by air, according to a recent omnibus survey conducted by Nissan1. This percentage climbs to 85 percent for those age 65 and older.
Nearly half the survey respondents are also now more likely to take a vacation with a recreational vehicle, and one-third are now more likely to spend money on an RV or boat.
“As we emerge as a nation from the stay at home orders, it is clear that Americans want to get back outdoors,” said Craig Kirby, RV Industry Association president. “We are seeing more and more people turn to RVs as a way to continue to enjoy their summer vacations, while also adhering to social distancing, which will likely be around in some form for the foreseeable future.”
Keep the American spirit alive by honoring this special occasion. Happy Independence Day!
