  1. Is the Nissan Titan a full-size pick-up truck?
    Reply

    While the Nissan Titan doesn't have a big brother like the Chevy and Ford trucks, the Titan features better handling, acceleration and braking than the F-150. Its bed is five foot six inches long providing all the room needed to load up tools, camping equipment or a trailer hitch. Seat the entire team in its roomy crew cab. So yeah, this pick-up works as a full-sized vehicle.

  2. How much weight can it tow?
    Reply

    With its powerful automatic four-wheel drive, the Titan is capable of hauling up to 9,730 pounds which is just astounding on a standard pick-up. Of course, the trailering package along with any required hitches must be installed. It even has better braking under load than the competition.

  3. What kind of gas mileage does the new Titan get?
    Reply

    The Titan generates a typical EPA-estimated 15 city/21 highway mpg making it competitive with other makes on the market. The Endurance 5.6L V8 engine generates a very healthy 390 horsepower and 394 foot pounds of torque, so there's all the power needed to accelerate even when the truck is fully loaded.

  4. Is there a long and short box option?
    Reply

    There is a single truck bed available on the Titan. However, at 5' 6" long and 4' 2" wide, it is larger than most short boxes on the market. There's still plenty of room to lay a piece of wallboard or ply wood flat between the wheel wells. Most users have decided that it is more important to have room for up to five passengers than the extra space in the underutilized back.

  5. But it's not built for off-road, is it?
    Reply

    Oh, the Pro-4X is all about getting its tires dirty. Complete with Bilstein shocks, skid plates for the transfer case and radiator, and all-terrain off-road tires, there's a Titan ready to tackle the rocky roads of life. The two-speed four-wheel drive transfer case offers a crawl mode to allow for better control when navigating mountains and streams. Hill descent control applies the brakes for improved confidence.

  7. What kind of view is there to hook up a gooseneck trailer?
    Reply

    The rear-view camera is situated at the top of the truck bed to help you line up fifth-wheel and gooseneck hitches. Competitors have their cameras mounted in the bumper, which is mostly useless when hooking up a large load or the RV. The touchscreen on the center dash serves as a monitor as well. There's no craning necks or trying again with this bulletproof system.
