Can you flat tow a Nissan Frontier 4x4?

I’m going on a cross-country road trip in my motorhome, but I also want to bring along my Frontier to do some off-roading. Is it possible to flat tow a Nissan Frontier 4x4?

That sounds like one epic road trip! That said, you might be able to flat tow your Nissan Frontier 4x4, but only if it has a manual transmission. This is the configuration in some base
trim levels
, as well as the off-roading machine—the Frontier PRO-4X.
However, you can never tow a Nissan Frontier that has an automatic transmission, regardless of whether it’s a 4x4 or two-wheel drive. In this case, the only option is flatbed trailering, as flat towing can significantly damage the drivetrain and transmission.
