Own a duramax and a Titan....the duramax is such an overkill on everything I pull but it's nice to have when its not broke down.....luv the reliability of the Titan and it's a perfect fit.....
I have a titan xd and had a ram 2500 ram has more power for sure but the titan xd pulls 90% of what people actually need there truck to do ..... The one pro is the xd is better off road than a 3/4 ......
new truck owner here, test drove all 4 trucks came down to Silverado 1500 and Titan XD, but found the 5.6 Titan XD SV 4x4 is the best in the bunch with similar price point/power/options. Love my Titan, no regret ... and btw came with 5 yrs 100K bumper to bumper warranty!
Henry Huynh did you get the gas? I'm a GM guy now but looking at a Nissan and like the 5.6
I got the '18 gas XD Pro-4x, love that motor!
Chris Melochick will you give me real world fuel economy. I like the value and I not much for resale as I tend to keep my trucks a while.
Bryan E the Pro-4x gets a solid 1mpg less than the other trims, but the lowest I've seen is 13 in the city, this highest I've really managed on the highway is 18. Combined is generally in the 14-15 range
Chris Melochick thanks. I'm glad you didn't say 28 and 18 in city.than I would of known your full if it. That's better than what I'm getting and I like the looks of them
I bought a 2018 gas Titan XD a year ago, other than the terrible gas mileage I have zero complaints, but I knew the MPG would be bad when I got it. The Titan is the best bang for your buck.
I just bought a Titan XD Pro4x gas. Best truck I've ever owned. Much better truck than my 2016 Ram 2500.
You bought a TITAN XD PRO4x gas?? I thoughts the XD is dieasel and you said gas>
It also comes with a gas engine. I have one.
Don Blade Nope, gas option too.
I have the Titan PRO -4X. Add a cold air intake and a cat back exhaust to your gas truck and it will sound great plus the added hp. I bought a travel trailer about 9 months after I bought my Titan, and now I wished I had bought the XD, but I'll never stray from the PRO-4X package.
William Curbow plus the added HP? There’s usually no added HP from a cold air intake... unless you get a custom tune.
Its well advertised Nissan Titan XD is not trying to compete with the 3/4 ton diesels it is a 1500 with a diesel motor. Dodge also has a 1500 diesel. Depends on what you need your truck to do. Nissan trucks are the best value on the market I paid 40K for my pro 4x and for a Ford, Dodge, Chevy or GMC the same truck is over 60K. Wake up and smell the coffee not alone Nissan has the best warranty 5 years 100K
You should do a show comparing the warranties between all the major brands. Look at the engines, transmissions, etc. and see what factory warranty is the best.
Titan wins all them
man you cant help to admit that this new T look grows on you, those nice colors along with that pro4x graphics..
Titan XD gas owner here.. excellent truck. I didn’t need over kill just to feel special. Just need to pull my boat and liked the warrantee and looks. I test drove the Ram Rebel. I liked the exterior but the interior looked very out dated and cheap. Titan looked more high quality
Hey how’s that XD holding up? Would you suggest it being efficient enough for an everyday truck ?
Have a 17 pro 4x gas had the same transmission problem trying to find the right gear. Took it to the dealership and they re-programmed the transmission now she shifts like a dream. Problem fixed
When reviews call it a “5/8 ton truck”, people take that WAY too literally. Don’t turn that phrase into a math formula comparing the capacities of 1/2 & 3/4 ton trucks- all arbitrary terms anyway. There’s a little “half ton” in an XD, and a little “three-quarter ton” as well- jack of many trades, master of none. An XD has ratings of a 3/4 ton of 10-12yrs ago; but certainly not those of today, but a lot better ride. Not as quick as many 1/2 ton trucks, but significantly heavier and more stable when loaded or towing heavy.
Is the Titan Warrior going to happen in 2018?
No word on this yet.
Lee Woiteshek god I hope so that thing looks badass
@@TFLcar What about 2020? (The Nissan Titan Warrior)
@@moose2934 Nope, not even 2021🙁
You guys mention that diesel gets better mpg than gas but maybe you could also mention the prices between the two (at least were you guys live). Because, yes you may be able to travel further in the diesel but it may costs more to do so. (from when i calculated from prices in my area)
Seraphim Valkyrin diesel is cheaper we're they are located. Diesel is usually the same price or 10 cents more per gallon. It should be cheaper as it's less refined but it's taxed greatly. Farm diesel is only around $1 a gallon and it's the same thing but is died a different color.
Dodge 318 Cummins Ah. Well here it's about 30 cents more per gallon so not that cost effective. Unless you need a diesel vehicle.
You forget to consider, the resale value of the diesel, reliability, power, torque and longevity of the diesel engine...
Diesel is usually 10 to 30 cents cheaper where I am.
@@crunch9876 diesel is an entire dollar more expensive in Michigan
I have a 2017 Nissan Texas Titan, which was a specialty model. I LOVE IT! It comes with 20” wheels but no 4x4. 😞. Every time I go to the Dealer for an Oil Change the Service Manager and/or Sales Manager, they make offers to buy it from me. Every Time over the past 5yrs. I still wont give it up!!!
I remember when Ford released an F-250 with a seven lug pattern, it was like 1998 and they looked identical to an F-150, there wasn’t this much controversy over that. I think this is Nissans pilot, introductory HD platform. They definitely are in good hands with Cummins. That’s not because Cummins makes the best engines, but it’s because Cummins really supports their customers. I’d like to see Nissan take the full jump into the HD market with a larger Cummins V8. Like a 6.8 liter.
I heard that Titan diesels have more issues than v8 gas..?
maniac32145 ofcourse most issues with the cummins are emission related
I bought the half ton gas Titan. I really like the fuel mileage and how quick it is. Just finished my first long trip to D.C. and was surprised by getting over 23 miles to the gallon.
Really 23mpg? All highway I assume?
Wow, my best was 20mpg going downhill from western Nebraska to eastern. If I had knocked it down to 60-65 maybe could have gotten more. That’s impressive
Will 5.6 XD be hunting gears more than diesel? Guessing it will have to run up at 4K where the torque is and that can be tiresome.
I'm a new owner of a titan blacked out edtion I love it I came from a ram 1500 i truely believe alot of people sleeping on these titans !!!!
By the end of the year big Texas I'ma grab me one of these baby ... What year is yours ? And is it the XD ?
Are you still satisfied? Have there been any issues with the Titan? I'm considering the Pro 4x or XD Pro 4x non diesel is why I'm asking.
Wssup brodie how is that Titan holding up??
Will this truck last as long as a Toyota tundra? I want the gas version and want to know how long the Nissan lives with good care.
I have a 2006 Nissan Titan gas (obviously) Engines are similar to the new Titan. The blocks are identical. Transmissions are similar, except now they have a couple more gears and I have a little over 300K on mine. I'm here not because it is falling apart but I am looking for a more refined truck and love my current Titan. I replace all the fluids regularly, using performance fluids, and change any seals right away if they begin to leak. It still runs great, feels tight, folks are amazed how many miles it has. Oh, and I have never taken it to a dealer, I do all the work myself. Hope this helps.
Ovide Morin this helps a lot! I appreciate the good report! Glad to know the Titan is reliable.
A little late, but here goes. I tow with my 2006 5.6L Titan. I have 200K miles and the powertrain has been flawless. Oil changes every 5K miles. Just a few minor failures (backup sensors, internal fan controllers, etc.) plus the awful clearcoat issue that Nissan taught us all about with darker colors. I'm now looking between the standard or XD in 5.6L. I've talked to several folks who have really maxed out the 5.6L, one who was still driving at over 400K miles.
I'm watching this again in Sept 2019 & I can't believe Andre reported a few days ago that Nissan is dropping it's pickup diesel XD
I hope Nissan offers a 8'foot bed in crew-cab configuration for the XD,this would be the same as the 3/4 ton trucks from the"BIG THREE".
4 gauge they only have 1 chassis so they would need a new frame
@@TheHillbillyspecialthey made a shorter frame for the xd w/ king cab. Still came with 6.5’ bed. At 1500 lbs of payload you wouldn’t want to sacrifice even more for a longer bed though.
Narrator sounds like Niko Belic from GTA4
Nice job Andre!
+S. Central Keystone Thanks!
Titan Pro4X vs Tundra TRD Pro. Which would you recommend off road? Between the regular titan and regular tundra trims which would you recommend?
headcas620 classy reply my friend. Great way to get people to respect your OPINION
headcas620 I don't plan on rock crawling or anything. But if I'd rather have the equipment and not need it. But with toyota I can get any trim and get trd upgrades factory installed
The tundra hasn't been updated and it still sells. know why? Because IT WORKS! Ever heard of don't fix what isn't broken?
Honestly my tundra (2014 5.7L 4x4) gets only 1 mpg less then my buddy. He has a brand new 2017 Ram 4x4. We have done MPG checks by computer and by hand. I think the whole MPG movement is BS.
Plus if you factor in 35s which I will be moving up to in due time. The NA engines actually end up having better MPGs. But if you are driving a truck with 35s who cares anyway right? No price on smiles per mile. To answer the OP's question. If you are looking for mods and after more of a after market get a 4x4 Tundra Sr5. If you are looking just to buy one off the lot both the tundra and titan are good. I like that i can fit a much bigger tire on tundras then on a titan. I had a 2014 Pro4x now I'm in a 2014 tundra. I do like the locker in the Pro4x. Both come with shitty stock tires. I ran Toyo RT's on my titan. Loved that truck but it had major electrical issues, and a much smaller after market following.
are the new 2018 midnight edition truck the same as the 2017?
What is the fuel mileage on the both of them
Kurt Jaquins terrible i get 19 L/100km in my gas xd
I'm looking at buying a used diesel truck and I'm interested in the Titan Xd diesel but nervous about Nissan(i had a POS 07Xterra). This sounds like a good truck with the exception of some early '16 models. I seem to remember this started as a joint venture with Toyota but they opted out before it was finalized. does that mean it will be more or less reliable. I currently drive a Tacoma but need something with a more passenger space and a bigger bed but Tundra fuel economy is total crap. Help! Should I just stick with the usual suspects?
Anyone recall the light duty F-250 from 97' to 98'? That was literally an f-150 with the heavier 9.75 rear end, 7 lug hubs and another leaf spring. That was a 3/4 ton truck, although a light one. This one is set up as a mainstream 3/4 in every way but the rear end being a semi float. Ford had semi float axles in the F-250 through 98', either the 10.25 or 9.75. Only the super duty had a full float rear. The XD is a light 3/4 ton, much like the F-150 can be configured as a heavy 1/2 ton.
Please tell me Nissan replaced that very weak rear end....I own a 2004 Titan so I do know what I'm talking about...
They did but the rear axle seals are still leaking in the 2006's
Titantramp4u went with American axle I think
they upgraded the rear end in the '08 which fixed most issues. The new one is even further refined from their commercial line.
Regarding transmission hunting on the gas Titan when towing why don't you just use the manual shifter? No more hunting.
Hey Andre, you mentioned that your mainly favorite trucks were Nissan and Chevy, so will you be considering the Titan because you can get a great diesel or a great and quick gas v8?
Andre says: I will consider Nissan as my next truck, but I may need true 3/4 ton capability. In which case, I am seriously considering a Ford F250 with the Gas V8. This will not be an immediate decision, as I would like to wait until the 2018 model year on the F250, or potentially pick another truck.
Andre but if you had to pick between Titan 5.6 Gas Engine or Titan XD Diesel 5.0
What is the difference between 2017 Titan gas, and 2017 Titan XD gas?
No regrets so far buying my 17 titan 1500 texas edition. I get alot of compliments. Looks, drives and sounds great. Gas mileage is my negative. Im getting 13 to 14 in city, stock. We ll se how much that drops after install the 3 inch lift kit. But i love everything else that to me is not that big an issue. Plus i owe my faithful toyota yaris for when gas prices go up
How’s the truck doing ? Still no regrets ?
@@preshj0hnson nope, had issues with the stereo but was replaced and working fine. Truck is still running great, it's our family vehicle for out of town trips and daily commute, and took it on couple of mild off road trails and beach haven't installed the lift, but I'm sure it won't be a big difference... A friend has the diesel, and that one did have issues..but the gas ones are good
@@mr.t5589 Ok appreciate the response, I’m looking
At a 2017 XD gas for $30k with 30k on the odometer! Seems like a pretty good deal for todays market. I was just really concerned about it being horrible on MPG as a somewhat everyday truck. What are the fuel & maintenance cost like?
@@preshj0hnson I have an sv 4x4. I pay extra for a maintenance package from the dealer that covers oil changes and tire rotation but oil change costs around 65 dlls every 6 months , tire rotation free at discount tire rt now gas is around 2.70ish where I live and fills up once a week for like 65 dlls, . But I work like 10 min from home which helps. It gives me around 12 to 13 miles in city, 14 to 15 hwy. Engine is solid but Gas mileage isn't great. That's my only complaint. I can go on 2 hour trip with 1/2 tank. It's comfortable enough for us with 2 car seats on back, my gear and my kids toys. If using for daily short commutes, occasional short family trips, I recommend it
Hope this info helps
Mpg´s on both?
Andre why don't you just look at a 350 or 3500 instead of a 250 or 2500? Do you personally tow ??
is the 08 pathfinder
have a rear locker
Another truck question that needs answering. Power wagon or Tundra TRDpro?
The Opinion of Matt due to reliability I would go for the tundra, just my 2 cents. Your towing and usage needs might call for the power wagon if you need greater towing and hauling cap.
Always look forward to your videos. I’ve learned a lot about trucks! I drive a 2006 Nissan Titan, 89k miles no problems! I tow a travel trailer 4700 lbs. All is good but I’m ready for a new Titan. Maybe a 2017 with low miles...Roman, tell me true. 2017 Titan SV 4X4 or the 2017 Pro 4x? Gas powered with best tow packages for my needs? Or, other? I value your opinion as well as the rest of your team! Love camping with my wife and friends.
In Canada you can only get the single or crew cab as of today , the Pro 4X starts at $57,600 for the gas and $64,950 for diesel Pro-4X. a Platinum Diesel is $74,900 which brings us in the RAM 2500 range.
Stephen Bradley lol you can get a ram 2500 Cummins for around $40,000.
Dodge 318 Cummins No the Nissan top Platinum trim is $74K as a RAM 2500
Stephen Bradley a loaded ram 2500 diesel laramie is about $67 on the sticker and you'll pay about $55. It will out everything this nissan
Gary Luaders I'm in Canada on #VancouverIsland #BC. We are in the highest price range in Canada for domestic cars and trucks.
That stinks. I was in Toronto a few weeks ago and a couple guys I was talking with said something similar..
Perhaps do a mpg test of xd at about 50k miles to see how it improves as engine is broken in
Between these two titan xd is better choice.
Had both, preferred the Xbox. Owned 6 titans, preferred the diesel.
Had to use lemon law in the state of Missouri, my 2016 Titan XD was the most problematic pick up I have ever had my life.... worst one year ownership of a new pick up
I notice that the GMC 1500 is available with payload and towing like the XD Titan
watch the TFL comparison of the F150 vs the XD. Sure, they claim similar stats, but look how well they actually handle the load. Numbers aren't everything.
cool vid guys
i just traded my 16 frontier desert runner for a titan, half ton. loving it so far and im gettig combined 15mpg, this is due to me being easy on the accel since its on a breake in period so havent had the chance to really see how quick it is besides the videos you guys did.
What year is your Nissan titan?
I'd like to see a comparison Half ton to XD axles make gear ratios some of the suspension differences the steering differences brakes differences also would be nice go compare the 2017 next to a previous Titan comparisons again axles brakes power train in half ton segment. Cheers I'm hoping Nissan has a fix for the gear hunting it's annoying but not a deal killer.
I have 2019 gas Titan....very fast, very nice so far, only 1500 miles on it.. Wish Nissan would make a full bore 3/4 ton truck.
I have a 2019 light duty and it great. However Nissan truck industry is going to hell in a handbag quickly! I see them discontinuing the truck
Great review and comparison!
but you took it up the easy side were as y'all took the raptor up the harder side
Andre, No love for Toyota?
wonder why they didn't they just jump in and make a true 3/4 ton 16k lbs towing ect?
Looking for a truck can’t make up my mind I durability And reliability plan on it being my last vehicle I’m 65 and driving a 1999 Chevy S 10 ext cab 4.3 with 350,000 and a 95 with 500, 000 never in engine only had transmission problems at 250,000 no big deal
show the back seat area
I want a Nissan Titan XD single cab thats 4x4 for work....but its 40k!!! Why so expensive its a single cab for christs sake
Is this a serious question? Because the cab is the cheapest part with the lightest material of the truck to build.
You guys need to stop saying that the XD is not a true 3/4 ton truck. It is classified as a class 2b truck just like the f250,ram 2500 and gm 2500 twins. So it indeed is a 3/4 ton truck...just a weak one. The XD diesel truck is 10 years behind on powertrain. Might as well go with the big 3 if you want a diesel. They will offer you the same or better mpg's, power folding mirrors,sunroofs, more technology, more hp and tq, all for the similar price tag!
guy proulx show me where there is a classification for a "5/8" ton truck.
guy proulx .....FYI. There are light duty , medium duty , and heavy duty trucks. Light duty truck are classified as class 1-3 trucks. Class 1 trucks have a GVWR between 0-6,000 lbs (ford ranger for example). class 2 are subdivided in 2 groups class 2a and 2b. 2a have a GVWR of 6,001-8500lbs (f150,ram 1500,etc.)and class 2b GVWR between 8,501-10,000 (f250,ram 2500,Titan XD,etc.). 1 tons are class 3 trucks and keeps on going up. Just food for thought.
simjet22 it's not a 3/4 ton the same way a silverado 1500 max trailering isnt.
weak springs, shocks, tires, axle, and cooling.
having a motor isnt the only determining factor.
what is its GCVWR and GVWR? no where near a 2003 era 3/4 ton.
+simjet22 however, all 3/4 trucks from Ford, GM, and Ram have a GVWR ration between 9,500-10,000 lbs. The GVWR on the Titan XD is 8,990.
guy proulx it's a truck nobody asked for. And nobody is buying it either!
Technically, it is a b2 class 3/4 ton truck.
technically it has a payload of 2500lbs, so its in excess of a 1 ton truck by capacity. What you call it is irrelevant. Domestic "3/4 ton" and "1 ton" trucks grossly out-haul their class capacity. The class designations are outdated and no longer applicable to modern trucks.
Your welcome for the motor 4 big green
boulder is ok nothing special. What has boulder done for the country? Detroit has done more for this country than boulder ever has report that
Titan and Titan xd are great buys if you want a S or SV. Any other model you are best to look at three big three.
sandmanoseven SV plus comfort and convenience pkg is the best setup
On a Nissan Titan XD come with sunroof
Titan XD is a truck and load in one.
I wish there infotainment was better
Awesome
cumminsengines.com/cummins-reveals-egrfree-new-engine-lineup
I foresee the day when Nissan swaps the 8cyl for a very fuel-efficient 4cyl 4.5L. The new 4.5L produces 575# torque, and has NO EGR ! Nissan could then go against all 150-class trucks, and win. The HD class is now over 900# torque, so 575# can't compete in this class.
Titan recalls. 17 18 19.motors
The more I look at this truck they look more like fords. Creativity please.
Michigan pays your salary . why you hate so much? boulder is the farthest from a car city
i just don't like an American engine in a japanese car. or a duramax on a chevy
Brandon Garcia truck was Engineered, Styled, tested and built in the US.
my titan was built in mississippi
True the XD is not a 3/4 ton truck....so the XD should mean Extra Duty a 1/2 ton on steroids.
Xd baby
There are no pro's only con's.
guy proulx and I see your still an idiot hahahaha
guy proulx lol you shut that idiot up
Too much talking with little or no substance.
lol Russia
This truck just doesn't make any sense. Only a fool would buy one. Overpriced and under-capable
From what I can tell, its numbers are not on par with the F250, Silverado HD or RAM 2500.
I'm a fool that bought a Titan XD. That lasted 5 months, and I traded it for a used Ram (power wagon). No comparison, Ram is all around better. I'd like a diesel again, but not the 5.0 Cummins. Underwhelming engine. The XD is a chore to drive anywhere but on the highway. If you are pulling medium loads all the time on highway/interstate, it'd be a good option.
Buknoy Harabas yes, the big 3 make real trucks. Toyota and Nissan make wimpy expensive trucks. A Nissan with the cummins loaded cost about what my HD Ram cost and my truck has a real cummins, gets better mileage, and tows 50% more. The wimpy Toyota I can understand, it's not trying to be a HD truck. The Nissan is trying to play with the big boys and is looking stupid for trying.
Yes I'm saying my 6.7 cummins is a real Cummins and the 5.0 is a wimpy motor pawned off on Nissan. literally the Big three 1/2 tons compete with whatever you call this 5/8 ton truck at a lower cost OR their 3/4 trucks blow this thing away at the same cost. The "massive" 4.30 gear ratio is irrelevant, capability on a heavy duty truck is the only thing that matters and the titan and tundra lack in that category. Yes my ram is fully loaded. I have basically the same truck TFL used in the cummins video, its basically a limited without the ugly grill. $68K sticker which is about what a loaded Titan stickers for only difference is with rebates I paid less than what a titan cost. so back to my original comment. Overpriced, under-capable, that's the Titan.
Lastly here's your reliability answer
highmileage.cummins.com/
Yawn, Try and justify your girly truck. Back to my original point: Over priced under capable.
NO TITAN NO TITAN BUY AMERICAN TRUCK SUPORT AMERICA
The only thing from the Titan XD that is not from the US is the transmission. It was designed in California, diesel engine is from Indiana and the truck is assembled in Mississippi.
*support
Neither one both titans are a joke
