    I'm getting a 2021 Titan Pro-4x. I've done a ton of research and not married to brand. Its the best value and the best looking one out there. Love it. I think alot of people just stay w the brand they know and grew up with and dont really expand their ideas.

      Did you end up getting it. I am with you. I have had a Chevy 1500, Ford f250, Chevy avalanche, Dodge Warlock. I now have a Titan Pro4X and it is my favorite. I think it's the most capable and comfortable. It checks nearly all of the boxes. I had major issues with the F250 and the emissions system. The Avalanche had AC and electric issues. The Warlock trans went out. Zero issues in the Titan. And the ride is much better than all of them.

    Love my 2018 Titan. I've got it built out full Leitner ACS, power, Hammerhead bumper, Warn winch, rigid lights, SPOD, RTT.. A full modern overland build out. Two years, two major coast to coast overland and offroading trips. It's easily the most underated platform on the market and the price simply can't be beat. Only downside is aftermarket parts availability, you'll need to be handy in fabrication or modification. Enjoy your truck!

    I am still sporting my 2006 nissan titan Texas edition 4x4 . 136000 miles on it. Most the known issues have been fixed. Some things upgraded. Aftermarket ironcross bumper with xbull winch and it has taken me everywhere. It is a bit big for some trails so we have to pick and choose. One of the best sounding engines made. Endurance is fact. 🙂👍☕

    I have a Titan XD and always thought it would be a great overland vehicle if more people made aftermarket upgrades for it. Still, with my ARE shell and towing capacity it's a really handy truck. We were able to move from TX to MD with 3 dogs and towing a car comfortably.

    Recently picked up a 2019 SL 4x4 Midnight Edition. After my adventures with the GM twins, I don't miss anything about them. Great experience so far. The aftermarket is sparse all around. Either really expensive or cheap add-ons. Especially since they discontinued the Titan. I'm just getting everything now and hope for the best.

    Finally a review on the true value of the Titan. 100% accurate. You can get a whole lot better deal on a Titan Vs the others. Sticker prices are similar but you cannot haggle a Tundra or F150. Lets not forget the best warranty in the industry with their standard 7 years/100K. Can't beat that! I test drove F150, Tundra and Ram before I settled for a Titan XD. It was a no brainer.

    I'm an absolute Toyota fanboy. I've had my 06 double cab Tundra since 2008. I love that truck and it is solid. I put a deposit for a brand new 1794 Tundra and waited 19 months because Toyota wouldn't build what I spec'd. My neighbor has a Titan. I jumped ship and got a 24 Pro4x XD. Mind you I am keeping my Tundy for the tighter trails but the XD is absolutely, hands down, an absolute beast and value. I pulled my deposit from Toyo and got my Titan for $20k less than what I would've paid for the Toyo. Every checkbox was checked for me and then some. I am deeply saddened to see 24 is the last year of the Titan but I'm glad I got mine.

I also put on a stillen exhaust and WOW! Though if you're looking at stillen if you opt for the black tip it will be bolt on. That's why I got it so I could remove it for off road. Overall I still want a 3 inch lift but love my truck. Good luck 👍

    The only thing about nissans in general that i'm not a huge fan of is the company itself.

I would be worried about loss of OEM support if they cant successfully turn it around.

      Adventure Built you’re welcome. Watching the video reminded me of Nissan. My dad had a 1988 regular cab 4x2 Hardbody pick up with their great 4-cylinder, 4-spd manual and manual steering (thankfully A/C). He put a hi-cab topper on the back and we put scrap carpet and large pillows (we called them zabutons). I borrowed it and went uphill over speed bumps in 2nd gear and burnt the clutch. Dad said it slipped for a while but reformed and drove like new. All we did was change the oil, he traded it for a Dakota and now hates Dodge to the point he might disown me if I get one. He bought two different 1995.5 V-6 Tacomas from cousins. He kept the 4x4 5-spd and gave me the 4x2 column shift auto while I was living in Portland 😕. I really wanted the 4x4, but he liked driving standard. I looked into adding an SAS and transfer case but I’m not that mechanical so it was too pricey for me.
