IIRC, these are made in Mississippi.

Imported full-size pickup trucks have never been able to capture the outright insane sales figures that their domestic competitors have enjoyed for years on end. For some automakers, that means returning to the drawing board and trying to find unique advantages. For others, it may just spell the end, after years of trying and coming up short.

Thus, Nissan will stop selling the Titan full-size pickup in the next few years, Automotive News reports, citing sources familiar with the decision. That source told AN that Nissan is deciding whether to end the Titan's lifecycle for the 2024 or 2025 model year, which means it could be discontinued as early as the end of next year.


Full sized pickup truck sales - Q1 2022

1. General Motors - 177,724
2. Ford - 140,701
3. Stellantis (Ram). - 127,116
4. Toyota - 22,643
5. Nissan. - 6,415

I’ll probably catch so much hell for this but I actually kinda like the Nissan Titans.

That sucks. It’s a solid truck with a good V8 engine. Just a bit dated.

No gimmicks like turbochargers, hybrids, or cylinder deactivation.

I think they were solid trucks, just ugly.

Probably good for Toyota. I didn't realize Tundras were such low volume. Every third truck around here is a Tundra. Of course, I'm probably ignoring fleet sales and such.

I had a Titan and liked the look of it but the god damn thing literally turned off as i was driving it. Barreling through ponchatoula and I had to restart the ignition after a moment of horror. Also was a maintenance hog. Nice truck but frick that.

Traded it for a f150 which i have driven like 350k+ miles and it still only asks for the occasional oil change while running like the day I got it.

So in a way the Titan was my first wife and the F150 was my current wife.

I've owned a Titan. Phenomenal truck. Straight forward, didn't have an iPad stapled to the front, and easy to work on.

This is a loss.

Garbage trucks from a garbage vehicle maker. Yota and Honda vehicles shite on Nissan. Props for them for at least continuing forward when the Tacoma pushed everyone else out of the midsize market for a decade

I had a 2005 and it was a good truck but it was like a sailor on leave very thirsty and never passed up a gas station.

Not surprising, much better truck options available.

Those stats are wrong… Ford has the #1 pickup in sales for the last century…

Side note: The brothers are going to be pissed…

I wonder if they'll try to offer something similar to the Maverick or Santa Cruz

Hey, Nissan......start making a small pickemup truck on the scale of the S10 or the real Ranger and I'll love you forever. I bet you won't do it! You won't do it....you're to pussy to do it.

I am still driving a 2008 Titan and wife driving 2010 Exterra. Neither one has had any major issues with combined over 400k miles. Its my 3rd nissan truck & her 3rd Exterra. Battery clamps, clear coat peeling & signal light holders are the only common problems we have had.

Numbers driven by fleet sales. Nissan still has been underwhelming since right after the introduction of the first generation. Had a real aggressive exhaust note.
