2005 Nissan Titan Review Summaries

What reviewers liked most about the Nissan Titan:

The transmission features a tow/haul mode that works together with the engine's electronic throttle control to provide a smooth power curve and seamless shifts under load.

A tightly controlled ride and a gutsy engine make the Titan feel smaller than you might think. The five-speed transmission keeps the engine in the heart of its power band for strong acceleration that rivals any of its competitors.

Big square-shaped fender flares give it a look of rugged sportiness.

What reviewers liked least about the Nissan Titan:

To some buyers, absence of a regular cab, longer beds, and heavier-duty models are shortcomings.

-- Consumer Guide

Nissan has made no effort to match the staggering mix of options in engine, transmissions, body styles and accessories that greet, say, a Ford pickup buyer. So you'll have to look elsewhere if you want a big duallie or a cheap, V6-powered regular cab.
