This Year's Model Updates:

Crew cab models receive a standard power up/down rear window with defroster, while all models get a tailgate with dampened assist. Other changes include new active head restraints for the driver and front passenger, new badging on the front doors and a unique wheel finish for SE models. The LE receives brushed aluminum interior trim accents and a leather-appointed bench seat is available in place of the buckets. The popular spray-in bedliner is now available as a stand-alone option on the XE.

Pros:
  • One of the best drivetrains in its class, smooth-riding suspension, spacious and functional cabin, innovative design features, available stability control and side airbags.
Cons:
  • Limited drivetrain and body style choices, no heavy-duty models, burly exhaust note can get annoying on long drives.

    Thought I took a step up when I traded my f-250 for the Titan. Wrong! Brake rotors warped less than 5k Mi. Rear door latches work occasionally, even after replacement of both. Vents creak @startup &shutdown still. It drives like a canoe, will not go straight. nervous, twitchy. camber kit installed. 4 trips to dealer, realigned 4 times. told me dont come back. District ser. rep told me the roads have a crown in them, thats the problem. Ive been driving longer than hes been breathing, tell me something I dont know. I like the style, power, economy, even the sound. This is truly a d**n nice piece of junk. Thank you so much Nissan. I will recommend anything except Nissan to all listeners.

  • My Fun Truck - 2005 Nissan Titan
    By -

    With exception performance and with just 500 miles on the new engine I traveled to the West Coast with a trailer to purchase and haul back 4 Cushman motorcycles. Driving through snow cover mountain passes, windy valleys and heavy rains the Titan preformed exceptionally well. I was totally pleased with its handling and towing capabilities. I had severe head winds on the return trip and still the Titan was able to make the trip and surpassed all my expectations. I was so pleased that I stopped into Gateway Nissan and shared with the dealership personnel copies of the recent article in Popular Mechanics (Mar 2007), all the good comments I received and my trip experiences. The truck is awesome!

    The truck is very capable, and I put a lift of 6 inches and 35 inch tires which dramatically decreased the fuel economy, but I expected it. The truck also runs off of ethanol which is very cool.

  • The best truck out! - 2005 Nissan Titan
    By -

    This is absolutely the best truck out now. It has more power and torque than most and will smoke a Hemi. I wish the would put a couple more paint layers on though. The steel in the bed is tough but a little thinner than most other trucks.

  • Head-on collision @ 65mph - 2005 Nissan Titan

    Im looking for my second Titan. The first was totalled last week when a Jeep Liberty crossed a median and hit us head-on. The structural integrity of the Titan cab exceeded my expectations. In every area this Titan kicks the competitions butts!

  • Nissan Titan has my vote! - 2005 Nissan Titan
    By -

    I now have 800 mi. on my Titan, and have loved driving it every mile. I traded a 01F150 and wish I would have done it sooner. The list of features on the LE package are fantastic. The fuel economy has been 16mpg and isnt really a problem with me.. I knew this before I bought it and its not a everyday used truck. The engine and transmission are extremly smooth and quiet... except for the exhaust sound, which reminds you your in a truck with power. However, the exhaust is not loud enough to be annoying. The interior layout has proven to be well laid out, very user friendly and very comfortable. The ride is very smooth yet sporty feeling. Best of all the cabin is the quietest out there!

    I have owned SUVs in the past and all have paled in comparison. Fortunately, I have not had the brake problem that I have read about in the reviews. The power this truck has is incredible.

    Great truck, plenty of room in the front & in the rear seats as well. Great radio system. Plenty of tow capacity no problem towing my boat. Love the rear sliding glass from the driver seat.Love the driver side two adjustment seat postions. Would tell every looking to buy a new truck to go and test drive one and look at all the FEATURES TOO MANY TO LIST .

  • Well thought out design! - 2005 Nissan Titan
    By -

    After reading MANY reviews about all types of full size crew cab trucks, I finally purchased this one. Very glad I did. Excellent quality, well thought out designs throughout the entire vehicle. Very powerful, responsive, and nice easy ride. Its size does not overwhelm a new driver as I thought it would. Virtually no blind spots with the split mirrors with the tow package.
