  • Awesome Truck - 2008 Nissan Titan
    By -

    Great ride quality, brakes, & suspension. Love the big interior of the CC. I have the leather bench seats and the big fold-down center console is great, especially for a laptop. Nicely priced, got my brand new 08 CC SE SB, OTD for 26k.

  • City boy truck - 2008 Nissan Titan
    By -

    Titan is my first full size pickup. chose it over cookie cutter Ford F150, F250 and GMC/Chevy. i liked all those truck appearances but too common. Fell in love with the Titan FFV 2wd LE crew cab. its sneaky big. Interior is huge with lots of hip and leg room. Has more rear/front leg room than wifes Suburban. Locking Leer bed tonneau makes for a huge weather proof trunk! Heated seats are large and comfy. Rock/Fosgate stereo is awesome. a/c is great. Truck rides great, i even put a 2 inch leveling kit on front to level the look. just a great vehicle for everyday city use. it will never get in the mud or go hunting, but can carry 20 sets of golf clubs i bet.

  • Outstanding Truck - 2008 Nissan Titan
    By -

    This truck is an excellent value. It is well thought out. Utilitrac system, outside tool compartment, sprayed on bedliner, message center, heated tow mirrors, are all nice things to have in a truck. Seats are comfortable. The ride is smooth. It handles better than many cars. Tows very well. The transmission shifts very smoothly. I have been getting 15 mpg around town and 17-18 on the highway, and 12-12.5 towing. Better payload than competitors. It tows 9100 true pounds. Looked high and low. This is the best value out there at the present time (IMO).

  • New Truck - Same problems - 2008 Nissan Titan

    08 Titan, AC drain leaks onto passenger side carpet, rear vibration, guages reflect in side mirror at night, 15MPG, gas spills down the side of truck if you fill up too quickly when low on gas - Udated info available in forums under nissan titan repair and maintenance

  • Best truck ever owned - 2008 Nissan Titan
    By -

    I am using Mobil One oil and getting 15 miles city and 19 on Hwy. Very powerful engine. Plenty of room inside and full of extras like bluetooth that work like a charm. Controls are handy and great sound system. I like the bed utility system and spray on bedliner that is not even offered on domestic trucks, shame on them.

  • Almost Perfect - 2008 Nissan Titan

    This truck is amazing! Everything about it says power, styling, comfort.

  • Amazing Truck! - 2008 Nissan Titan
    By -

    I did my homework. I got the preferred package XE which makes it similar to SE. I test drove all REAL sized trucks, Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Toyota. The Nissan had a spacious cab (felt larger than the others), nice included features, a large engine, lots of power, smooth ride, fun to drive and the girls love it. It was a no brainer!

  • I Like It - 2008 Nissan Titan
    By -

    It is a 08.5, just turned 12000 miles and not a problem. I looked at all the options out there, Toyota, Ford, and Chevy. Toyota was my #1 choice but to get a crew cab you only got a 5.5 ft bed what would you do with that. I looked and compared trucks for six months. I never considered the Nissan until my wife took me over to the dealer and I have yet to look back. I Like It. It has all the options and some. I drive 60% Highway and 40% everything else. I am averaging 15 to 16.5 mpg. The 7 ft bed is great, room for all the gear, ATV, and the deer. The only thing I did not like, it is hard to find an off road friendly tire in the 20in rim with out putting on a lift.

  • Engine Options? - 2008 Nissan Titan
    By -

    This is an amazing truck. It truly outperforms the competition in every aspect... except gas mileage. The wife wants me to sell it because of the 13city-17hwy MPG stats. Aftermarket bolt-ons only help a little. Maybe with a smaller V-8 engine package you could set up your application the way you need. I hear the bed squeak when I have the back window down. There have been absolutely no problems with my Titan, I love it, and it has the most get up and go out of all the trucks I have tested. Buy it if you can afford the gas.

  • Comfort and Quality - 2008 Nissan Titan
    By -

    I wanted a truck that would handle not only my towing and hauling needs but be very comfortable. The ride and handling are first class. The ride is smooth and quiet. The captains chairs are very comfortable. The Rockford Fosgate sound system with the XM radio is exceptional. It makes you feel as though you are driving in a luxury automobile. The build quality is very good. There werent any defects at delivery. The gas mileage is as expected for a large truck with this much power. I get approximately 21 MPG on the highway going around 68 MPH. Around town about 14. The king cab provides plenty of room even for a six foot tall adult. This is a quality vehicle at a bargain price. Great truck
