Our 05 Titan (crew cab 5.5' bed) has 220k+ miles and is still a beast. No issues at all in the last 17 years with regular maintenance. Had the terrible paint job that all 2000s Nissans had (got it repainted for xmas 2021: fresh factory Charcoal Gray) Love the v8 roar (very iconic sound bespoke to this engine)
Just like the tundra bro
I had an 08 with banks 5” monster exhaust and it sounded amazing
Yeah I have an 18 XD gasser. The paint is no better lol
I got the big boy and it's a good truck just don't like gas
Have an 08 Titan 4x4 LE with 444k miles on it. Still climbing
I have 05 titan has 340k miles and still a beast... no issues at all other than the clear coat. Just regular maintenance. Haul and tows to this day.
Yes new paint your set
Exactly you did the right thing by doing the maintenance to it these are the jerks who are saying all my truck broke down 515 times a week there the people usually do nothing but put gas in it and absolutely do nothing don't change the air filter that you filter anything and then they complain about it you could do that to a anything and it'll be not reliable and you will have a lot of issues but you can't tell these idiots that now once in a while you will get a truck you buy brand new that had some punch of problems with it the way it was built that happens with every model but if it's not happening to every truck on that model same model coming out Then you got your shoes then stay away from it
Did you have to do the cats?
I've owned an 07 4x4 off Road. Bought it at 260k now its at 306k. Only thing is the paint like everyone else but she still runs like a beast! Titan after 07 were greatly built and are work mules that don't get enough credit!
Endurance name was used clear back to 2004. 2004-06 we're rated at 305hp. I bought my 2006 new and now has 145k. Other than the poor mpg and a few week spots like brake rotors, early spring shackles, and exhaust manifold gaskets, it's a solid truck. Way ahead of it's time with the 170deg doors on a king cab, damped tailgate, and bed accessories
Please dont forget to check your radiators for the bad part numbers. A bad radiator can take out your transmission via coolant mixing. 2011 and up model years have the next part numbers.
@@elizabethmiller7918 I don't know if that happened with the V8s, it was very common with the 4.0 V6 in the Pathfinder/Xterra/frontier.
@@damilolaakanni Someone just told me in another thread the V8s didnt have the bad radiators so.. shrug : )
@@elizabethmiller7918 That's a Frontier /Xterra issue.
Yeah, I believe the 2004 models had an engine badge on the front fenders that said Endurance. Subsequent years just said V8
One day we're young, one day we're impressed by the 2008 pickup truck. Man years go by fast.
Okay so u just caused an existential crisis
Hell I've owned and ran just about everything gas and diesel.... My 2011 sold me on Nissan again... And it's absolutely ridiculous fast
...
I'm more impressed with the 60s and 70s trucks, but these are decent trucks
Love my 06. Sitting at 237k miles and still runs and drives like a champ. Love the 5.6. strong and reliable. Have loved every Nissan truck I've ever owned. 98 pathfinder 02 external and this titan now they've all been beasts.
My most favorite truck even the 1st gen Titan was ahead of its time.
Y’all should start doing more reviews on older trucks , see how they have held up after time since so many people don’t only have new truck they also have older trucks 👍🏻.
Shame that people don't buy more of the Titans. As a 2021 Titan Pro4x owner and a one time owner of a 2005 Titan these trucks are fantastic and rock solid.
I guess people believe buying American means the big 3 but guess they should do some research and see these are very high American made content.
Many Silverados are made in Mexico and Rams is foreign owned.
Not to mention that EcoBoost engines are garbage as well.
@@CJColvin
100 % correct.
I had 2 of them and both had issues.
@@mikeriv60 Yep you got it brother, for me I chose the Coyote V8 over the EcoBoost V6 in the F150 anyday cause I don't have to worry about turbos going out, I have the reliability of the Naturally aspirated V8 (or Naturally aspirated engine) and plus I have sound of a V8 as well just like you're Titan has, I'm just pisses that Toyota got rid of the legendary 5.7L I-Force V8 that powered the Tundra and Sequoia for generations.
@@CJColvin what is Toyota using now?
@@alcopower5710the 3rd gen of the tundras use a 3.4 Twin turbo 6.
Bought one a year ago and absolutely love it. 80k miles and I’ll have it forever! It tows my boat great, and great off road. I don’t have the pro4x like this one but I upgraded the suspension to that of a brand new pro4x and haven’t needed the locking diff yet.
My 2013 Armada is a Titan with a built in bed cap. I freaking LOVE my truck! It is huge and heavy as hell but the 4x4 is EXTREMELY capable. Will have it until the wheels fall off.
Agreed! Love mine as well! 237k and doesn't use a drop of oil 👍
@@applefordguy76 Mine has 155,000 and is the same way. I would drive that thing anywhere in a moments notice. Just need to sell a testicle to pay for the gas to go 300 miles... 🤣
@@brokenmedic9133 Agreed! Pass anything but a gas station lol. Mine unfortunately has been reduced to a winter vehicle only. Getting pretty rusty but it runs and drives so damn good. And with the tuner, headers, and cold air intake it's a blast to drive!
@@applefordguy76 Mine is still bone stock. I need to get the headers amd tune too. I'm jealous. 🤣
I have a '21 Pro4x. Love it. Get lots of looks and i can tell the big 3 drivers don't even know what it is when they see it. LOL
I have an 08’ Titan with well over 100k miles, and I love it. It’s got the usual old truck issues, but it’s been pretty much bullet proof. It’s a great truck.
Did u replaced the started ?
Ive owned my 06 Titan from brand new and in June i was reared ended by someone and it was totaled. 225k miles and i never had to even think about the engine and trans other than regular maintenance. I actually have the salvage title and am planning on fixing it since truck prices are outrageous.
Ranchos were stock for PRO 4X and Bilsteins are a huge upgrade. Nice truck!
this guy doesn't know jack crap about his own truck
You should see his Xterra video lol
Just a little kid with a truck can't tell you what it is he knows it's white. It has four tires four wheels and it's made by nissan
My dad had a 2004 Titan and the thing was solid. Zero mechanical issues and just required the normal maintenance on it. He traded it in with 270k miles on it in 2019 for a 2018 Titan and he just retired and decided to get a 2021 Titan Pro 4x
I have this 06. Bought it used with 80k on it. 315k now and those are very hard miles. I'm a land surveyor in the northern ozarks and I've beat the hell out of it. Have to have front end work done every couple years but other than that no problems. I've probably had it tuned up twice. Starts right up and runs like new. I've never even replaced a headlight or tail light. Has some quirky things like the heater clicking when it's off and it honked and locked all the doors out of the blue a couple times. But that hasn't happened in 7-8 years. Very satisfied with this rig.
Awesome find! 08+ Titans are the best way to go for that gen. If you're looking for some more upgrades, Z1 Off-Road can hook you up.
I had a 2012 Titan SL. Traded it for my 2019 Titan only because I wanted modern tech n better gas mileage. I loved that truck n I still miss it to this day
I traded my 11 titan for a 14 tundra...worst mistake I have ever made.
@@CuttinInIdaho Why?
@@hardcorecampinggear the tundra is half the truck. Not as comfortable, has a weird starter location. The infotainment sucks. Performance is worse at high elevation by far. Back seats give more room to passengers than the driver. 4wd stability is less. I hated that truck. I thought it was the better truck...nope
Great Video! I have owned a 2012 Titan Pro4X for about 9 years now. It has not given me one problem. Great truck! Very responsive with a "Roar Pedal" throttle response controller installed. I also tow a '35 travel trailer with it and it does just fine. I cannot say enough good things about mine! Thank you TFL for putting this video together!
256k on my 2005 sold it and it’s still going. I have seen three of the 2004-2015 Titans with over 550k miles. Solid truck and my new 2021 is getting 19mpg average
Never really cared or bother to learn more about the older titan, but now I'm interested. The outer bedside compartment is freaking sweet! Never knew about that
I absolutely love these videos, especially when it's a Nissan.
the older titan is the real titan
Just got a 2017 nissan titan extended cab with 6½ bed. Leveled along with aftermarket air intake and exhaust. Great truck. Getting 17mpg regularly.
I had an 07 Titan 4x4. Great truck except for the 13mpg combined!
I bought a 2006 Titan 2wd brand new January 2 2008. It was a leftover that never sold obviously. I got it for a song. At that time I had been dairy farming for about 4 years and needed something to haul live stock, hay wagons, exct. Fast forward to present, I still own the truck with 240k on it plus a 15 Titan 4wd SL for Sunday -going-to-meetin and a 13 Armada for the misses.
Loved my Up-reved tuned 2008 Titan. Had 178k miles on her when she got totaled by a drunk driver. Now driving a 2020 Pro4X and its nice.
"In 2008, a longer wheelbase model was offered with either an 8-foot-3-inch (2.51 m) bed on the King Cab or a 7-foot-3-inch (2.21 m) bed on the crew cab. There were originally four trim levels available: the S, SV, Pro-4x, SE, and LE. The SE and LE trim was eventually replaced by the luxury SL trim." I think 2015 was the first year for the Endurance name.
My dad has a 2014 Titan with 110,000 miles and has held up perfectly! I love the power, sound, and even the simplicity of the truck. It is basic but works great and it does get 17 mpg with regular use!
110,000 is nothing for those trucks.
Mine has 186,000 miles, but it still runs great.
Mines at 202k and cost 24k in repairs in the 4 years owning it 😂 I'll actually never get a titan again.
@warheadsoverload1082 what is the issue?
I've owned my 2004 Armada since 111k. Currently has 238k on the clock. By far, this is by far the best truck I've ever owned. Tons of torque. Mine is tuned, CAI, and catted headers. But, there's no way a tuner is giving him 395hp. Mine claims 10hp. Feels like more, because it increases throttle response immensely.
@@justinlegros9592 the armada is the SUV version of a Titan up until 2015. I would say it is a truck.
@@justinlegros9592 The only difference between the Titan and Armada is the rear suspension. And of course no pickup box. Frame, front suspension, powertrain, all the same.
@@applefordguy76 Rear differential is also different on the Armada. It's a Nissan part and is actually more durable than the Dana rear axle that the original Titans have.
@@justinlegros9592 yo broke ass just mad cuz u can’t afford a armada
@@Matt-co6bc armadas are dog shit
We bought a 2012 Armada Platinum last spring and absolutely love it minus the fuel mileage. But we love how simple it is, easy to maintain, and tons of room. This coming from a GM guy, but seems far more reliable than a similar Tahoe or Suburban.
My friend had a 04 I believe and it was a great truck. Of course he had paint issues, but everything else held up really well.
I was looking for an old beater truck when I came across an 06 Nissan Titan similar to this but blue in color. High miles. It was a fleet vehicle. From the pictures, it looks excellent, well maintained. Definitely going to check it out. He's asking $6700 for it. Wish me luck. Lol.
I have a 2010 Titan PRO-4X and love it. V8 sounds amazing every time I fire it up and minimal problems usually just sensors (ABS and Camshaft Position Sensor). 162k miles running strong.
When these trucks came out, ahead of their time for sure, when they came out and had the 5 speed auto and Ford GM and Dodge still had 4 speeds, these trucks were faster than most others out there except for the lightning and SRT10
My 2013 pro 4 x leather looks like new inside. 365000 kms. Runs perfect and louder then stock with Borla muffler. Pig on fuel but super comfortable on the hwy heading north. Have to get rid of it do to gas prices. But for what I will get for it I may just keep it for a back up
I'm not a "truck guy," but we had an '05 Titan LE crew cab 4x4 and I LOVED it!! 255k miles and it ran & drove like new! A U-joint failed on the hwy and the front drive shaft swinging violently, caused a lot of damage! It punched a hole in the side of the transmission bellhouse amongst a few other things. Anyway, what a great truck it was!
That is an awesome truck! You will get another 100,000 easy
Great looking truck, the stickers look aftermarket. That lift gives it a great stance.
I had a 2010 pro 4x titan and loved it . It was just over 300k and started to give me electrical issues that my mechanic and the nissan dealer could not find . The ram power wagon is my dream truck but I would be happy with another titan .
Word of advice: make sure your rear axle tube breather isn’t plugged. Mine plugged, and blew 2 axle seals. You do not wanna have to replace those.
I bought a first year model Nissan Titan in 2004 that's still going strong 18 years later and the best truck I've ever owned.
If you listen to many of the so called experts it should be the biggest piece of junk ever made. Goes to show that most of the time these people have biases towards certain car makers and look for things to knock the brand.
I have an 08 titan se with the crew cab and long bed (7ft 3in) and it has been the best vehicle I've owned. I got it a little under a year ago but it quickly proved its utility. The forward visibility in the 1st get titan is unmatched and the 37gal tank is a huge positive.
37 gal tank!? I wish I had that tank on my 2010. I think mine is like 22 gal.
Lol, i have the same car
2008 Crew Cab 4x4 LWB.
I had an 08 pro4x and it was great. Just didn’t like towing hills without getting hot. Never overheated though. But darn close. But so comfortable. Locker was good too. It was very capable off-road. I had the lumber rack too from Nissan. Sweet. But my 16 ram mega cab ram is a little more suited to tow.
Awesome truck! I remember seeing those all over the place back in the day.
I have an 07 titan ands its cool seeing the similarities and differences between the 2 years, I love this truck so much
I had an 08 Titan. Most comfortable vehicle I have ever owned.
Bought an 09' titan last year and I love it. I only wish I could have found a Pro-4x model for the locking diff. Great truck all around, looking forward to mods.
Retired my immaculate 04 titan LE crew cab 4x4 with 80k original miles and zero rust ..now relaxes in the garage away from all the elements .beautiful truck
Parts are relatively cheap for these trucks so whatever breaks, wears out or needs upgrading I just get it done and keep going. First generation Pro-4X models came with Rancho shocks stock. The Bilstein 5100's were aftermarket upgrades.
I sold Nissans in 2010 but bought a 2008 4X4 Pathfinder with that awesome 5.6L V8. It's a wonderfully torquey engine and that Pathfinder had shocking acceleration too. I used it going up into the Ozarks multiple times and it just kept asking me "when do I get a challenge here, champ?" I think it might have climbed a tree if I had let it.
I have a 2012 pro-4x, same color and I love driving it a lot. It's close to 200k now but still runs as good as when I first got it. I think the stock 317hp for Titan might be off. I have driven Tundra, F150, Silverado and I can feel that Titan is making like 360hp stock. Thinking about doing headers and exhaust this summer.
They realistically make around 340 HP based on some of the dynos I’ve seen. Usually 280 - 290 at the wheels.
my 02 silverado has 118k miles so pretty low mileage which is what i was looking for. i wanted plenty of life left. got it about 2 years ago. haven't put too many miles on it though. but went on a over 2k mile roadtrip about 7 months ago, no issues. from socal to colorado and back. was getting about 400 miles between fillups with a few gallons left. so not bad.
08 SE and 12 SV, both have been great to own...definitely underrated.
Got an 06 new. What a great truck. Gave it to my son last year and got a 2019 xd. Trucks that are thousands more don’t have some of the cool things that the titans do. For what I payed for the two I’ve owned definitely made them a good bang for the buck.
Still drive my 04 that I bought new in 03. None of my Chevy’s ever came close to longevity like that. Do the mods and you own one of the best pickups ever produced.
I still love my '06 Titan SE, bought new in 06 with 12 miles. Now 16 years later with 198k miles and she is still going strong! The clear coat on the hood and roof have issues, and little things that are typical for a vehicle with that many miles, but it is still a blast to drive. The major issue that is annoying with these 1st gen Titan's are the cracking stock exhaust manifolds. (there are a few others, but this is the biggest).
BTW...Endurance was used on the '04 models.
i go camping and mountain biking with my little elantra
I highly doubt it has 395 with just a tune… maybe an additional 20hp
Agreed! Without forced induction, that is very hard to do with just a tune and an exhaust modification
We are all in agreement
Yeah, but the stickers add AT LEAST another 50hp.
@@AkioWasRight I like the sticker
@@AkioWasRight very true..my mistake 😂
08 Titan owner here 227K miles. Still going strong. Just regular maintenance done to it. I'll need to do something with the paint which is the only thing wrong with it. Probably just going to Raptor Line the entire truck. It can't pass a gas station without stopping to fill up but I love the VK56 V8 in it. It's not my daily driver anymore so more of a weekend vehicle now.
My neighbor Dave has a 2019 Nissan Titan and sounds like a beast everytime he starts it up and I know this Titan here will outlast pretty much any EcoBoost engine out there.
Very nice truck and very nice build. Good work!
Just found this video. Thx guys. My 2 cents. I have a 2012 titan, purchased with 51k, now have 213k on it. No issues. I plan on going to 500k. My son keeps pushing me to get something newer. But im not. I like this truck. Really like this truck.
Gonna buy one (07) with the same mileage as you from my friend. Any issues I should watch out for? I know about the manifold cracking and the brakes, but those were just replaced. Don’t know if the manifold or transmission has ever been serviced/replaced.
Only thing I had to get done was a new starter. It's located under the intake. I'm too old to fight that. No manifold or brake issues. Do tow some, just not a lot. Great truck!
I had a 2004 King Cab SE 4x4. Put a JBA cat back on it. I loved that truck. It was like a muscle car with a bed. Kept it until 2020. Only had 82000 on it but living in NJ rust was killing it so it had to go. Fuel mileage was terrible though. Other than a few small issues I never had any problems with it. For a truck it was very fast and It would work. Even though it was a 1/2 ton I loaded 1 ton in the bed a number of times and it handled it with ease. Never bottomed out. The HP and torque always felt way more than the stated figures.
I had an 04 titan and sold it with 275k miles, it was super fast, strong and reliable!
I got a 2012 Titan and intend to keep it on the road as long as possible. Just passed 160,000 miles and still running strong.
There's no stupid electronics to break constantly, its just solid mechanical engineering.
My 189k 2005 titan and 5.6 is a absolute beast, new england car, used and abused, rusty right side, i have long bed , crew cab, i hauled sand and gravel, i haul my big kayak easy all summer. Its getting old, but it hauls assss. Used to be faster when new, it MOVES fast on highway, 110 on the highway, smooth no shaking.
I have the 06 crew cab short bed. Man I wish I had the long bed, but still love the truck
Titans are the best. Love em. Good, honest, dependable trucks.
My 04 Titan crew cab off-road package has been a very dependable & solid truck with almost 210k+. I will buy another Titan when I feel she's getting tired, might be awhile!!!
Bought my 2010 Pro4x KC brand new in 2009. The worst problems are replacing the exhaust manifolds when they crack and the blend door actuators. You have to drop the entire IFS subframe to get to the manifolds and the entire dash has to come out for the $20 actuators.
Factory unit is a Rockford fosgate, the bilstein 5100s are not stock, definitely not making 395 hp but good review TFL. Have 278k on my titan currently and still going like new
Thanks, that was driving me crazy. i didn't think it was HK, but couldn't remember the RF.
I had a 2007 titan se King cab 4wd and loved it.
My dad has a 2004 titan with 170k miles. He bought it brand new from the Nissan dealership back in 2004 and it’s still running strong. No engine or transmission issues not even the starter
Mine had the uprev 93 octane tune. With jba full length headers and custom high flow cats(for PA sniff test). Highly recommended
I have a 2011 2WD SL , love it! Great trucks!
Im tundra guy but these older titans are underrated, they great trucks! 💪🏻
I have a 2005 Titan that I bought new in 05 and I love it so much that I recently gave it a full restoration with new paint, lights, trim, leather seats, and even a sunroof. Like any vehicle I have had to replace some parts here and there but nothing major. It's great hearing how much it sold for since it gives me an idea of what I should value my truck especially with these improvements. It's cool seeing these 1st generation titan videos, I feel the older models look alot better than the new style. I like that head unit too. Is there any info on where to find it online?
My brother had an 03 he bought new and it had Endurance V8 emblems on the front quarter panels. The motor and drive train were flawless but around 200K it rusted out from under him but it was a truck endlessly used on salty roads so nothing against Nissan. Between the north east roads and the amount of towing he did it was a great truck.
Must have been a 04. That was the first year they made it.
I have a 2011 titan sv that I bought in 2012. 125,000 miles on it and run great. About 10,000 of those miles towing a 26 ft travel trailer. Only issue I have had is my windows go up and down a little slow. I replaced the fan belt and spark plugs around 100,000 miles. With the price of trucks today I plan on driving it as long as I can.
I have a 15 pro-4x. It’s a fantastic truck
I do as well, solid. Love my truck
Bought my 04” new and it’s the best truck I’ve ever owned. Even more reliable than my Chevy’s. 19 years old and still going strong.
Okay that all is awesome. I have a 2009, 4 door crew cab with the a 7’ bed, pro4X, 90k. Awesome truck love it.
My 13 tundra is old school aswell. No high tech features and complicate buttons . Straight foward solid reliable truck. Does everything I need it to and then some.
I always thought that cubbie on there rear bottom of the bed was a cool feature. Idk why Nissan did away with it. That is a random feature that is useful.
My favorite TFL segment!
I think I enjoyed seeing this more than the new trucks.
Yoooo 2008 nissan titan club? Let's go!
The endurance started in 04, I own a 2004 Nissan Titan, 243, thousand miles, runs great! Fuel mileage is still at original specks! Only issue is the paint is failing, but all Nissan in this area have same issue, mine is 4/4 lifted, fully loaded for its year model, great truck
Awesome! I just bought a 04 titan with 165k miles and love. It will be my work truck
I have the 13 p4x its the best vehicle that i had. Never had problems with it. I still get compliments from time to time
I got a 2013 nissian titan pro 4 x for about a year now. I love it. Got an air intake and exhaust on it and couldnt be happier. Wish it had less miles but whatever lol
I bought a '19 king cab 3 months ago and I tow with it mostly but the truck is really quick when I'm not pulling. I drove tampa to jax for turkey day and was getting almost 20 mpg, I get about 12 mpg when towing. Electric sliding rear is a cool feature I wish I had. I bought it from a Nissan dealership and I got it much cheaper than any big 3 truck I looked at. Had only 11k too, that was the biggest selling point for me. I traded in a '15 crew cab frontier that I beat the crap out of and they still gave me 12k for it
Owner knows Jack sh*t about his truck lol. Harmon Kardon my ass!
That being said, nice truck. TFL and Nathan’s love for the first gen was a big reason I bought my 2014 PRO-4X. It has done everything as advertised and more without a hiccup.
Appreciate the great content TFL!
LOL it was probably Rockford Fosgate
Bought my 08 last year love it
The Endurance name was started with the 2004. The badge on the front fenders said it
I was looking at one of these or a Frontier before I ordered my Maverick. They look really cool.
Have a 2004 and a 2014 Titan. Both have been great.
I actually still have brand new in plastic pro4x embroidered floor mats. From 2010. Never used them as i went straight to weather tech mats
Same
I own a 2008 titan long bed would put 2 yards of gravel daily.
I got it when it had 80,000 miles and sold it for 4000$ at 485000 miles only thing I change was tires brakes and oil change never let me down.
