2005 Nissan Titan

I had done a lot of research before I decided to buy a Titan. It seemed like a lot of bang for the buck. I had been driving an older 4runner, but it would not pull one of my boats. I picked the Titan because of the towing capacity, comfort, and style. I have been VERY pleased so far. The first time I hit the gas, I went OOOOH. Wife said the same thing. Power to spare is an understatement. The things I like best are the ride, the seats, and the Rockfort Fosgate sterero system. It is almost too quiet on the road and does not have any shakes, rattles, or rolls. I had read that many of these trucks have brake problems, gas gauge problems etc. Mine does not. If you are looking to buy, I would suggest a good test drive and look over.

I've been looking for a full size truck on ebay and found this one for under $8K with less than 100K miles (70K on mine). The truck was a repossesed lease vehicle, so it had some minor scrapes, scuffs, dents and dings. I can overlook that for the price I got. When I transferred the title through our state DMV, the clerk asked if the truck had any major body or water damage. When I told her "no". Her eyes got big and she said "You got a great deal!"...
I'm not a big fan of the king cab doors, but I can't see myself driving a 4 dr pickup (I've got an SUV) but we needed the rear seat since we now have a baby in the family. The king cab will haul my tools most of the time and will at least handle the baby seat when we need it.
This truck has awesome power! My last full size truck was a '95 Dodge Ram Regular cab/Shortbed with the 5.9L. The Nissan 5.6L carrying the heavier king cab body has more power! Even my stripped down XE model has alot of nice features. The damper in the tailgate is something every other truck maker needs to figure out.
I haven't had the chance to check my mileage yet, but based on the first tank of gas, I'm expecting to get around 20mpg - the same I get with my '95 Nissan Pathfinder that looks like it would fit in the bed of the TITAN!

I've worked in automotive manufacturing for 25+ years. I've worked for GM, Ford, Nissan, Toyota and BMW. For the past 10 years, I've driven nothing but Nissans and Mazdas.

We love the vehicle we purchased and the seller did a wonderful job describing it on the site and putting lots of pictures. Will definitely do business again although will ask for the second salesman that helped us.

THANKS!

THE TITAN WAS BETTER THAN ADVERTISED. SALESMAN, BYRON MADE IT SO EASY,IT WAS A TRUE PLEASURE! GREATEST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER! THEY TOOK ALL THE HASSLE OUT OF A USUALY COMPLEX PURCHASE. THANKS GUYS!
