Acceleration
"Smooth, powerful V8 puts Titan among quickest large trucks off the line, delivers ample passing power, provides competitive 9500-lb towing capacity. Transmission upshifts smoothly, downshifts promptly."

Ride
"Firm always, choppy over broken surfaces, rail tracks, though suspension quick to quell secondary motions."

Economy
"Test 4WD XE Crew Cab averaged 12.1 mpg in all-city driving, 14.5 in mixed city/highway use. Nissan recommends regular-grade fuel."

Noise
"Road, engine, wind noise nicely muted, but constant exhaust rumble can be tiring."

Comfort - Front
"Some testers judge bench seat too flat and firm for best comfort. All agree buckets are substantial, supportive. Head and leg room ample either way. High step-in requires grabbing steering wheel or assist handle."

Comfort - Rear
"King Cabs have acceptable knee room if front seats not more than halfway back. Crews have generous leg room. Three adults fit in either, but two are less crowded. Some testers find Crew Cab seat too upright, lacking in thigh support. King Cab rear doors open 180 degrees for great access in tight parking spaces, but tall step-in hampers entry/exit in any Titan."

Controls
"Gauges simple, very legible. Controls generously sized, close to driver, but not always easy to see. Column-mounted transmission shift lever felt loose to some testers, but cleverly integrates toggle control for manual shifting. Console lever has convenient gated shift pattern. Interior assembly solid enough, let down only by too many lightweight plastic bin covers. Cabin materials serviceable on XE and SE, plush on LE."

Cargo Room
"Bins, cupholders abound in both cab styles, but bench seat's center-armrest cubby has a large, cumbersome lid. Crew Cab's near-flat rear floor, fold-up rear-seat cushions provide outstanding in-cab storage. Locking fender compartment, tailgate cargo-bed lighting, track tie-down system are added assets."
