2006 Nissan Titan - A Class Act
by: Stuart Simpson, Tue Dec 6th
The 2006 Nissan Titan is a world-class truck. This full sizepickup is at the top of its class with 379 lb-ft of torque. Ihad an opportunity to test drive and look at the Titan's whenlooking to purchase a full size truck. I looked at the Tundra,too. The Toyota is no slacker by any means, but this Titan issharp. Let's just start with the big silver 5.6 numbers you see on theback of the truck. That means it has the 305 hp V8 engine -strong enough to tow 9500 lbs. It does have a fully boxed frame,so give up on those Ford commercials. Notice they only comparethe Ford to the Dodge and Chevrolet pickups? Wonder why? No, Idon't. Closest comparison I can find to the Titan's power is the F150with the larger 5.4-liter engine. It has 300 hp and can tow asmuch as the Titan. But the tow package on the Titan comes with alower final gear ratio to act more like a 4 speed automaticinstead of a 5 speed. It also has a transmission temperaturegauge and trailer brake controller prewired under the dash.
Now if you are more the off-roading type, you'll like theelectronic locking rear differential and the Rancho off-roadshocks. It also has fog lights and skid plates which are a musthave. The Titan boasts most modern conveniences as the Tundra likebraking distribution and shifting on the fly 4wd. In my inspection of the 2005 and 2006 models, I did notice aneat feature. The tailgate weighs a ton, but on the 2006 model,it appears weightless. Nissan added gas shocks to aid inlowering and raising the tailgate. Pretty slick. The otherreally neat feature I found in this truck was the lockingoutside toolbox. It's a lockbox under the left rear tire, upunder the fender. There's a door and a locking latch to storeother things, like tools and such. It's pretty cool. That has meon a bias towards the Nissan as if the other features didn't. In the bed is a factory sprayed on bed liner and this neatutility track to hold stuff in place. Rather, it allows me toposition ropes and tie downs where I need them. But inside, theinterior has something to be desired. Looks like a 350Znightmare. The steering wheel and gauge cluster is nice, butmove over to the right of that and, I dunno, just not my taste. There are 3 trim levels, XE, SE, and LE. The SE seems to be themost common and it's nice. Not much difference as I can tellbetween an SE and LE. It is a nice truck and should beconsidered if you are shopping around as I am and have been. About the author:Stuart Simpson http://www.nissan-trucks-review.com http://www.toyota-trucks-review.com
