It lags incredibly far behind domestic trucks just like other foreign full-size trucks

Thought it looked cool when I was in highschool. Now, not so much. Maybe it just has to do with the times, but now I look down on people who drive nissans. They’ve gone to the toilet as a company

I think its because they dont pay people to talk good about them. Here is a direct quote from TFL when talking about the Tundra vs the Titan.

"Titan has rear locker..hill descent..hill start assist....tundra has fox shocks which makes this superior" So Fox shocks is what makes it superior? a $500 upgrade that you can do on your own.

From this video at the end. LINK

I think the new Pro 4x Titan is an amazing truck for the price.

Nissan doesn't invest in it. And they only seem to focus on one or two configurations, which narrows the truck's appeal.

It's dated and gets barely 14 MPG. Which means it costs an additional $800-$1,000 per year to operate over a comparable Chevrolet or Ford model, depending on mileage.
Meaning you can basically just swap out the engine and transmission of a comparable F-150 after about 7-8 years and still come out ahead.

Costs way too much to operate. Nissan needs a more fuel efficient engine.

I had a 2009 Titan until recently. Had it for 11 years and 205,000 miles. Not a single mechanical issue.

People don't talk about them or shite on them because it's not what they have.

It's not a truck that will wow you with a fancy interior or anything but it's a solid machine.
