Scotty, how is anyone going to be able afford to put diesel/gas in their truck/car now that gas/diesel prices are over$7.00 gallon?!, just saw news that Washington state is out of gas/diesel, and what stations that still have fuel to sell has changed their pumps to register $10.00++ a gallon!!!
@@b.powell3480 -- Darn those BLUE States.....
Can't overstate how much I thoroughly enjoy your channel; you are ridiculously AWESOME!
I bought my first new car and its a Nissan bout a year ago aka 30,000 miles ago, can u give me advice on how to keep it new and not get carbon build up and what not
@@ripjones5294 yeah, their saying east side where most red states, are doing good!!! Go figure!
Nissan Titan 5.6 is the last real half ton truck in 2022. Designed and manufactured in the USA, No auto start/stop, no cylinder deactivation, big powerful V8, fully boxed frame, steel body, hydraulic power steering, comfortable interior, Safety Shield 360 standard and the best warranty in the business.
Even when Scotty loves a Nissan he's really just loving the Toyota transmission 😂
"Toyota isn't the best truck to buy anymore"
Also Scotty:
"This truck runs a Toyota Transmission"
Don’t think Toyota has a Cummins diesel…
It’s good business to have the competitor eating out of the palm of your hands
@@matthew7972 the 5.0 Cummins really isn't a good motor... yet. It had some reliability issues the first few years but hopefully it's better now
@@TheScrubmuffin69 what issues were those?
The tundra is a far better truck for reliability and resale value hands down
Hey Scotty - just so you know the "electronic parking brake" button you pushed is actually the button to turn the parking sensor system on and off. The Titan has a normal park brake pedal by the left kick panel just like the old days - I know because I own one.
This 😂
@@fountainpen8689 Yeah I saw the signal icon and thought that myself
This!! So much for ' I've been a mechanic for bla bla decades !'.. 'tis all clicks and revenue!!
@@M5_Sonu the guy has good tips and things to be aware of. But at this point he just pushes repetitive opinion pieces.
The pedal all the way to the left is for the "super ultimate amazingly awesome air brake turbo".
I got a Titan because I couldn't afford Tundra. I have no regrets.. I love my Titan..I put a FlowFX exhaust on and it sounds wesome.
I see tons of Tundras for sale online
@@ILC-eo6vk I'd want a tundra but I'm gonna go with a Tacoma instead then get an F350.
@@ILC-eo6vk I want the new series Tundra. But three years from now, when all the "Bugs" have been addressed.
No regrets yet
@@icosthop9998 new tunnies are ugly. I want a newer Titan pro 4x. I have a 2012 tundra which I will probably keep forever though
The 5 liter Cummins V8 was originally intended for Ram's smaller 1500, but FCA decided in favor of the more efficient (FCA) 3.0 Ecodiesel instead. Cummins had already invested so much time and money into R and D for their 5 liter diesel that it only made sense to put it in something else and that’s where Nissan came in. Just so happens Nissan was working on a Titan XD which slots somewhere between a 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton truck and this 5 liter diesel was perfect.
Brother has the 3.0 L EcoDiesel, 220,000 Km's, still running strong, not a hitch yet. Mind you, he doesn't work it hard, only light duty.
@@louishumphreys5451 That’s all it’s really meant for.
@D B I agree, they definitely have some issues. The particulates and def systems are especially costly.
@@louishumphreys5451 if you aren't gonna work a diesel hard, why even buy it then?
@@TheScrubmuffin69 He's retired. He mainly bought it as a cheaper fuel option. When he bought it new in 2016, diesel was 1 dollar a litre then. Personally, I would never look at it. The 6.2 L is a good size.
I love my 2018 titan xd diesel. It's awesome and I really have had great experiences with mine
Have owned a Pathfinder and a top of the line Armada. Both had serious electronics problems. You can praise Nissan on their feel good things but nothing matters when the electronics fail over making the vehicle unreliable. Will never purchase a Nissan again. Only Toyota and Honda will get my money.
I absolutely love this truck. If I could find one with under 60,000 miles, I just might buy it…. Even with diesel over $5 a gallon!
But his was around same kms as me. or well miles, i wrote miles for ya.. plus i keep dash in miles cause WHO MEASURES BOOST IN KPA?????? LOL
$5 a gallons a deal.....I'll take that price all day over the $7 a gallon we're paying in Canada.
I've got a 2017, Single Cab, long Bed 4x4 w/Cummins with just over 26,000 miles on it for sale. Interested?
you obviously never owned one of these Nissan Junks, Only thing good about this Truck is the cumins Engine, Transmission is a pile of Junk
2.25 per liter in Canada
I bought mine new in 2018. This has been an amazing truck. No issues whatsoever.
Good Scotty sure Nissan some loving, see the brand is coming to their roots. The CVTS have gotten better than other years love these Titan trucks they are great trucks.
You've spoken well of the Nissan Frontier in the past. I loved mine. I wish I still had it.
I got rid of my 2020 f150 with 38k miles due to cam phaser issues and bought one of these. I absolutely love this truck. I did buy an extended warranty just incase.
I owned a 2017 Pro-4x Cummins until last year and loved it... right up until I experienced similar turbo problems (both turbines are housed in the same unit) and FAR TOO FREQUENT exhaust filtration system problems. I was towing a trailer from Alaska to Kansas in one instance and my DEF system decided to fail near Edmonton, leaving my wife and I stranded in a foreign country for a week. Before that trip, the truck had been serviced five times for DEF injector failures and EGT valve problems.
Those regulations are murder for these diesel engines.
Congratulations on 5 Million Subscribers Scotty. Love from Toronto.
Absolutely love Nissan Titan w/ the Cummings. It's a fantastic Rig.
I own one just like he is showing on the video and I have 18500 miles on it. The fuel milage is only getting better and better. Took a trip and put about 3000 miles on it and avg 21.4 miles to the gallon. I love my truck !!!!
I have a 21 Titan and I get 23 miles per gallon
I have a 19’ SL XD with the 5.0 and I absolutely love it! Bought it brand new and I only have 19k on it.
Scotty, that "P" button @4:01 isn't the "electronic parking brake". That "P" button is for the parking sensors. The Titans still has the old fashioned foot parking brake.
I was thinking the same thing!
Your correct.
Ha I posted that as well before I saw this. I owned the same truck he just showed minus 4 wheel drive.
Boy Scotty screwed that one up.
I believe him. I know nothing about The Titans
Most people believe him too, That was watching this video.
Very Educative stuff right here since I found out about it Yesterday
Greetings from Canada! We love your show.
If Toyota was smart they would at least still offer the v8 in the tundra . Look at all the engine choices in the Ford F-150.
Fax
Yeah they could’ve kept it with all the other upgrades they made with the truck.
Government regulations!
The EPA forced them to go turbocharged. Fiat is next.
Most Definitely,I would not buy a new Tundra for that exact reason,I'd take my chances with others that are still putting a V-8 in thier trucks.
I love my Titan it's not a Cummins but that VK56DE is one of the most underrated truck engines. They don't call the endurance for nothing. Nissan also used a variation of the VK56 for their Formula 1. Got an 05 with over 260k miles on the original motor and tranny and still pulls like it did 17 years ago. Only changed my plugs and my serpentine belt. Guess I've been lucky.
I have an 05 with 290,000. The transmission gave out but rebuilt and motor still runs perfect
'05 Titan LE here. 180,000 miles and still tows my 7500lb camper, 75 mph in the hammer lane like a champ. Original engine and tranny (wooops! can't say that anymore) transmission.
I didn't think this day would ever come but Scotty you don't know the whole story. The Nissan mechanics who have had to deal with this Cummins diesel have informed me that Cummins does not make a V8 Cummins diesel that was requested by Nissan and it was riddled with issues that is why they pulled away from having the VA Cummins in these trucks. Now if they go back in with a straight six Cummins in the same transmission the problem would be solved.
I heard these engines are bad engines.
My brother lives in Indiana, near one of the Cummins plant. One of his old neighbors is an engineer for Cummins and told my brother that the V8 Cummins that went into the Titan XD was originally made to replace Dodge/Ram eco-diesel engine. Cummins did produce a prototype 4 cylinder turbo diesel that was installed in a 2nd gen Frontier. One of TFL's channels did a review on that 2nd gen Frontier with the Cummins diesel engine.
@@s13one80 so is this engine good or bad ❓️
@@icosthop9998 I say it's more bad than good. One reason is that the emissions equipment hinders the true potential of that engine and the other reason being that Cummins basically abandoned the engine and offered little to no support to the consumers.
Cummins made the engine. Word on the street is that it was going to go into the ram 1500 ecodiesel but did not get good enough fuel ratings. This engine would have been produced with or without a Ram/Nissan deal. The Cummins ISV 5.0L V8 is also used in some BlueBird busses and Tiffin Allegro Motorhomes. The busses and motor homes both ran a different turbo setup than the Nissans got but basically the same motor otherwise. My best guess is they did not sell like anyone had hoped for. At the time this engine was being developed the US was also stricting emissions standards on all diesel engines. I am more than happy with my stock 2016 XD diesel 150k miles.
We had a 21 Pro 4x with the 5.6 V8 and 9spd auto. We put 17K miles on it. We loved that truck to death. When towing, the truck always had plenty of power, and the transmission shifted beautifully. I agree with gas. My goodness! It would get 12mpg on avg and about 6mpg when towing our 9Klb camper. We upgraded to a F250 with the 6.7 because of the weight and size of the camper.
hmmmmm where your from friend?
nice pick scotty! I'm gona keep an eye out. I always avoided diesels because I didn't know anything about them, but with all the changes that seems like I know nothing about everything again. lol might be time to take the dive!
You should do a video on all the hatches available to us and the ones to come . Ever since my 97 Honda hatch I’ve always loved hatches . I want the new Corolla but before the Corolla was the gti hatch . Having a hard time deciding .
Nissan started sourcing transmissions a few years ago actually...and it made their trucks way better...
And yeah...I've seen older Ford's with Toyota transmissions that never break as well...
I recently was given a 92' 4.9 inline 6 that runs great...and there's a lot of things that can be done with it..but for me..I'll stick with slow but good on tow.....
What Fords have Toyota transmissions? ZF, and Mazda maybe. Manual rangers and maybe 5.0/4.9 F150s had the M5OD. Those are both manual though.
which fords have toyota trannys?
1st I heard of a Ford with Toyota transmissions
Theyve always sourced transmissions from aisin. 04 and 05 maxima had a ton of transmisison issues. It was a 5 speed aisin. If they dont use their own jatcos
You've never seen a Ford with an Aisin/Toyota transmission....you're as bad as that spaz scotty..
My 2016 white/silver Pro4x Cummins diesel just blew up completely. $16,550 to replace complete engine. Less than 140k miles. Looks just like that. I loved it till that happened. Other than the thousands I spent on DEF repairs constantly. I dont know what happened but its trashed now. I owe 30k on it still and now I'm out 17k. So I'm letting it go back. Could have been an amazing truck and it absolutely had lots of power and everything I ever wanted. But never again. Especially when they gave up on them after just a couple years.
Man That's a Horror Story !!!
I should have bought this over my GMC dually (the one you looked at last year)
2022 Pathfinders are well made. VQ35 engine paired with ZF9 transmission will last long. Not to mention, this new design is well thought to serve. We got one recently and couldn't be happier. I agree with Scotty when it comes to CVTs in Nissans. We had two Muranos in the past and we had to get rid of one of them because of transmission issue at 230k miles. Other one was at 290k and still had the original engine and transmission.
I've got a 2022 Frontier with a "Jatco" rebranded Mercedes 9-speed automatic transmission. I believe it'll last a while since Mercedes makes decent transmissions.
@@Joshtheweatherman We also have a 2011 G25 and VQ25 and 7-speed transmission with RWD is very reliable. It is also easy to work on , except chain driven water pump 🤣
@@Joshtheweatherman in late 90's my family had a four-door Frontier with 5-speed, RWD , and diesel engine. That was a bulletproof truck.
@@bk_atl2436 Yeah, Nissan has and still builds bulletproof trucks. Scotty thinks anything with the Jatco name is garbage, but that's not true. Jatco rebrands some companies, mostly Mercedes
But transmission issues after 230k and 290k miles isn´t bad. That is better than some that go out with 60k or something like that.
I have a 2019 Nissan Titan Midnight Edition. I absolutely love it.
I have one of these, a 2017. Contrary to all the internet reviews, I’ve never had any issues with it.
Yep! I have a 2016 w/ 150k miles and love it!
We have a 2016 and not one problem. 20 mpg and every option possible. We love our truck!
Just noticed you have passed 5MM subs. Congrats!
I'd have to agree. I picked up my 18th Toyota with a 2017 Trd pro tundra. Before that I test drove a new Titan sv. It is a fantastic truck for the money and has the best warranty for a truck on the market. With a bumper to bumper 100k warranty that makes them hard to beat.
Still staying away from the new tundra. You can scream how they have tested them for years however at the end of the day. All turbos eventually fail and when they do. It's costly
The Old turbos don't fail if the oils changed when it should be.....new stuff is basically all throw away junk, yet we're all worried about sustainability......the irony is epic.
@@robbalinski1606 The old turbos were also designed better and dissipated heat quicker. The quality of the bearings are nowhere near what they use to be.
I'm not saying one couldn't theoretically last the life of the truck. I'm saying the quality has diminished and there will be issues out of the gate... Speaking of Gates by the way. The wastegate in the first release of the truck was addressed however like anything else. You're dealing with supply and demand shortages causing excessive lead times.
I'll stick with my 5.7.
@@Xdtrl gas turbo is questionable but the turbo diesel from TOYOTA r almighty and those who have good of it will goes with it doesn't matter even if the engine is na, later they make turbo setup(parts from JAPAN) for it.
I had a Hilux with the 1KD turbo diesel for almost 13 years and it never failed but I don't know how they make the turbos for their American trucks
@@amarbinay6654 The hilux is the Toyota king!
I love my 2019 Nissan Titan Pro4x. It's a beast!
just bought a 2019 titan..Not the cummins but i was really surprised with the truck. I enjoy it. My Ram was falling apart so i had to get out of it. Scotty told me the the problems I could be having so i decided to run from it.
My first truck was a 2011 nissan frontier, that thing was a little tank. I put it through hell towing boats and driving around dirt trails when hunting and never had any issues.
I miss my Nissan frontier 🙄😭
my first truck was a '53 GMC.
Wow thats an extremely nice truck, I've never seen one of those
Good Day to you Scotty.. Nice review on that monster Nissan truck... Are you up in New England ??? We are Blessed to have you here... Enjoy sir , you deserve a little R&R......
That was not the parking brake button you pushed. It was the parking sensors on off switch.
Say what you want Scotty, my 2019 Tundra just hit 60k miles and it is by far the best pickup I have ever owned, yes I have had a f150. I try not to say I "love" things that are not alive, but my Tundra is about as close as it gets.
You sound like me and my 02 Toyota Sequoia. 268,000 miles n counting. More reliable than some of these new cars out today. Lol
I ❤️ my Sequoia!!
"Rebuilt Rack" - I lost it. LOL :)
I worked at Cummins for a year in the UK for work experience. They were making the engines for the big trucks. Great engines.
In my opinion, the reason they did not sell many of these is simply the price. These were priced for nearly as much as a Ford F350 diesel at the time. So who is going to choose the Nissan over the Ford at a similar price point??? Also, they didn't get they expected fuel mileage. They were supposed to get 25 mpg. Apparently they only get 19 to 20 mph.
spot on..I remember seeing these in the platinum XD trim when they came out and they had a Monroney at 65K and an ADM at 72K..8 of them were delivered and 7 were still on the lot after two weeks. The salesman I talked to said the same thing would happen, people would come look, see the sticker and go buy a Ford. There was supposedly a diesel Titan Work truck that would have a 40k price point, but that dealer couldn't get an allocation that included the work truck, it had to be ordered. The Ford dealer down the road had about 30 F250s in a work truck config that were in the 40-50k range.
You would be lucky to get that kind of mileage w/ emission equipment in tact. I get about 12.5 city and about 16mpg highway. 19 to 20 is possible if missing parts like the one in the video
They offered huge discounts on XDs. $10-12k.
Me, I would buy literally any brand over a ford. But I have a vendetta with ford, I used to own a car lot, the one reliable thing about a ford is you can count on it breaking.
@@jasoncloud4921 but that's true about every brand out there. (Here we go with the flag waving dodge owners. Its a hemi...).
I have a 2016 XD with the Cummins and its a solid truck… overbuilt , the frame is THICC, and the transmission is a 1 ton, beefy. It feels like a truck, not a Caddy and Im here for it. I believe they way underrated what it can handle… Nissan could have changed a few small things and it would have made a decent 3/4 ton. Tows way better than any regular 1/2 ton truck.
There is one other truck with a Cummins Diesel engine and a Toyota transmission: the Dodge Ram 3500. The high-output engine that is exclusive to the 3500 is too powerful for the 68RFE, so it is paired with an Aisin 6-speed. It’s a much nicer truck with a lot more power and torque, and it is a hell of a lot more reliable than a Titan XD.
The gas are pretty good trucks. The diesels had issues.
I own a '21 Pro4x Titan.
Yeah the newer generation like what he showing here that gasolines are very solid, I have heard complaints about issues with the diesel engines, I thought that's why they quit making them. I don't know anything about the transmission I have in mind or who makes it, all I know is it's a 9-speed automatic and I've never found anything bad about them online.
I have a 17 pro 4x and i get terrible gas mileage
@@damysticalone3393 They are pretty much on par with other trucks in terms of mileage.
I've been averaging 19-21 on highway and 16'ish on secondaries. But I don't sit at lights too much. Mostly country roads at 35-55.
@@damysticalone3393 which is what you get when buying a v8 truck. Thank god they made them direct injected, or it’d be worse.
I'm hearing the new Tundras with the duel Turbo V6 is just a touch better with gas mileage , nothing to write home about.
Thanks Scotty great video. Its nice to see a positive video about these trucks. I've owned one for 5 year and love it, I do get some backlash from people for owning it though.. Oh well hey.. my life my money my truck :)
Any problems with your truck and what regular maintance did you do?
Actually that was the button for the parking sensor 😂
Great content Scotty.
I'll admit it's the best and only way I would consider a Nissan. However I find the new gm 3.0 deisels are powerful, can tow, efficient and very quiet. They had overheating issues the first year which was fixed in 2021. I believe they are solid truck and I would put it first on my list. Just have to wait out the Ford gm 10 speed transmission. Maybe they will put an Allison in it for the new 3.0 diesel model.
I have a 2016 XD w/ the Cummins ISV 5.0L as well and love the truck. All stock w/ 150k miles.
Still have my 05 g35 coupe and 08 Infiniti M35. Basically a nissan. No problems at all just regular maintenance. Both well over 160K miles each.
My 99 Mustang six has never had a problem with the power steering, currently at 215,000 miles - have always tried to keep car maintained after buying it used at about a year old - previous rental - intend to have power steering exchange done on next oil change - just to keep fluid fresh.
I have a 2018 Titan XD 4x4 with a gas engine that only has 26k miles. I've not had any issues with it until I hit a deer with it last week :( We tow a 25ft Airstream with it. You can't tell its back there. Huge difference between this truck and our old F-150
Coming from 13 Ford trucks, this is my favorite truck of them all. I have a 2017 gas 5.6 XD, and it's never been in the shop after 134k miles. These trucks drive, tow, and ride like a true half ton should in my opinion. Puts the f150 to shame on towing (not power wise).
Still driving my 08 Titan LE with 270,000 miles on it. It’s a gas guzzling pig but been a good vehicle over 12 years
Yep! Good to know. My family has a 2014 with only 70k miles that we bought new, it's gone heavy off roading many times and towed big campers. Incredible truck for the price
Right by now it's tough to feed a gas guzzling pig.
But you could be well off, so the cost of fuel is N/P for you.
That's great my 2004 still runs great at 135,000 just replaced brakes and rotors.
@@johnpetrie7615 same here. Got an 04 quad cab se titan. Still going strong, gave it a full refresh on the paint and body work
@@lt9690 Mine needs paint badly as clearcoat is losing everywhere
I have one 3 months now love it
If you bring the parts to shop instead of buying parts from them, they usually will not warranty the parts. You would have to send it back to where you got it for a return or refund and pay again to have it fixed. Or just do it yourself like scotty
Didn’t even know they made something like that! A unicorn for sure.
My '17 gasser Titan has NO turbo, NO cylinder de-activation, and NO start-stop technology. 64K and nearing the end of its 5-year warranty, I'm extending the warranty and plan to keep this truck for years to come.
Nissan is finally earning some respect. I'd like to try out the new Z!
Meh new z is already old.... its basically a 370z with a body kit and a q50 motor. 370z was essentially a 350z with the same treatment. I love nissan but the new z is meh.
Not that close. Toyota is still king.
Can't decide if I really want to lean into the enthusiastic manual GR86 or stick with the battle tested Camry XSE Hybrid and being conservative
My 2014 Xterra is still reliable after 51,000 miles. I like the SUV.
@@johnaranjo2059 literally everything on it is new but the chassis dude 😅
Good Stuff,Great Tips 😄👍🏿
I saw one of these on the road today, when I saw the Cummings emblem I thought WTF ? Then I get home and Scotty has one on a vid
I like Nissan Titan with a 5.6 V8 or the 5.0 Cummins because the diesel ended in 2019. I have to say is the 5.6 V8 and the 2016-2019 5.0 Cummins is the best engine for towing and driving as the daily.
I’m considering one. The prices are pretty good on them. I’d like a little more stability for towing than my F150, but I don’t need a true 3/4 or 1 ton
Finally the Titan getting some shine, it’s a good truck.
Hey Scotty, when starting a vehicle that has a push button start instead of key, you do not need to press and hold the button until it starts. Just give it one good push and release. it will start just fine.
Noticed that too, eh?
I love the new v8 engine pro 4 x, so underrated but in my opinion one of the best trucks
I have a 17 Titan XD diesel and love it. Wish I could buy another one with the diesel.
The reason why Nissans don't sell that well is because CZcamsrs like you literally bash them around every corner when literally every product they make is a world-class product that is reliable for the majority of people who have them unless those people literally don't take care of their cars, in which case any car they would have had would have broken down!
My brother-in-law has one and pulls a trailer with it daily. He loves the diesel power.
These trucks were awesome. Their capacity were more than any other half tons ever built.
Mr. Scotty, I have a 06 Chevrolet 2500HD 4x4 LBZ Duramax diesel. Granted GM should have put a lift pump on these trucks, but I bought this unit from an elderly couple in 2019 with 92,111 miles on it. I have installed an aftermarket MBRP down pipe and exhaust system on it. I get 16 mpgs local/20 interstate if I am not towing. Please review a LBZ Duramax if possible. There are great engines also.
I didn't know that the Titan diesel had a Toyota transmission. I knew the motor was Cummins but they do have issues with the turbos that I'm aware of. You definitely got to get warranty for the turbos at least other than that it's a pretty good truck.
It has a very similar Aisin-seiki transmission as the Ram 3500 diesels offer.
So excited about a well made vehicle I wish Nissan would have kept going with that Diesel and Toyota transmission just see Scotty leap for joy.
It didn't sell well
Thank goodness I got my and I so happy with it
I was subscribed years ago. somehow, I was subbed now. so I subbed again.
Scotty the button you pressed is the parking sensor, not the parking brake. The parking brake is a pedal down below on the left.
I got a 2018 Nissan Titan XD with the 5.6 liter gas engine. I love my truck! It will tow a heavy load, and when I need to work it hard, it does everything I ask of it. Welcome to the most under rated truck in America! 5 year warranty, and 100,000 miles. What’s not to like? Mileage is not great, but for how heavy they are, it is as good as can be expected.
I love my Titan too. It’s a beast !
Just traded my 2018 pro 4 x Titan gas with just over 60000 kms . Was nice truck but went back too dealer too pickup my back ordered tonneau cover for the new frontier i seen my Titan still sitting there . They said the engine blew up when someone test drove it 😳 Apparently there is lots of them that back cylinder wall goes . 🤷♂️
@@stephenrhodesianridgeback7418 So you down-sized 🧐
@@stephenrhodesianridgeback7418 there is a service bulletin for cylinder scoring on some model years. I have heard of some engine replacements covered under warranty. Cylinder #7
@@icosthop9998 Yes happy with the new frontier pro 4 x 👍 Very comfortable and easy on fuel
My father had a Nissan Pathfinder 96 that he had gotten used with a few thousand miles. Used the piss out of that pathfinder till it hit 278k. The engine was not the issue, it was the body rusting like dodge trucks. Definitely the best vehicles my family owned, we used it to hall firewood in a trailer every winter. Drove it in snow, that is where this thing shines. It was a 4x4 with a auto. Family also got a 2012 Nissan Frontier SV 4x4, in 2014 I believe. It was a rental, under 10k miles. Ended up paying 22k. Still runs and drives with no issues. As I said above, rust is the biggest thing I have found with Nissan, even with proper care.
No matter what you will always get that sound from a Diesel I am kinda shocked how quiet the new ones are getting I had a Hilux with the 1KD engine it was pretty loud but now I have a new Hilux with the 1GD engine and it's very quiet compared to the 1KD at some points you can't even tell it's a diesel
Scotty, at 7:40,
See what a rebuilt rack costs. Check out the top right corner.
😄😆🤣
Scotty, you kill me! 😄
I get 18.5 mpg on a 2021 Titan XD gas 5.6 9 speed transmission. Colorado Springs to Tucson. no trailer, but 5 passengers and luggage.
13.5 - 15 mpg in town. Great truck.
My uncle has an 04 Titan with over 300,000 miles on it. He's owned many different trucks but says it was the best one he ever had.
Same. Mine is coming up on 200 k. Just freshened up the paint job body work on it. About to replace the shock absorbers
130k on my 2017 Titan XD with the gas engine. Pretty solid truck. I've never needed the warranty other than for an alignment early on. I'd buy another but they went way up in price. I got mine new for $31800.
They may still have them in production if you gave this review when they were in production :)
Before I got my Tacoma I did consider this truck since it had so many options. The only reason I didn't get it is due to the emissions systems screwing it up
They're not even comparable trucks imo!
Gasoline 5.6L DOHC V8 all the way for me. I love the sound of those engines. Wish I could find them.
Scotty, the P button is the parking sensor radar system. The parking brake is on the floor.
I’m the type of guy that will just walk up and ask someone how they like their truck. Despite what the so called experts say, I’ve never, not one time, ever had a Titan owner say that they didn’t absolutely love their truck. I know a guy who put over 400,000 miles on his first generation Titan just doing routine maintenance. The 5.6 is a beast, don’t get the diesel.
I had a gas XD and the diesel for the last 3 years and both were great trucks.
Hey Scotty great show hope you can help have a 95 Chevy Tahoe with a 350 automatic transmission when I take off the transmission slams into second and only second but goes away if I have weight in the back or towing a trailer with weight on it what might that be
Hey Scotty, I had one it was crap. They couldn’t figure out the front end and they even brought out the engineers from the test track.
The engine is crap, lots of broken cranks.
Never got better that 13mpg. Uphill, downhill, with trailer or without.
Sold it at around 36k miles.
It did pull a trailer well. But really garbage. That’s why they quit selling it. All you have to do is a quick internet search on problems with these trucks.
Not to mention it was choked with the emissions equipment
Awesome video
The Tin Man….you need to learn how to use it meme was pure gold! 😂
Best truck I’ve ever owned is a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 for will drive 57 HEMI 184000 miles and still running strong I’ve just took care of it and it’s taking care of me
I have a gas pro-4x and I love it still especially since diesel is like $5.50 a gallon now
I never knew Cummins had a G in it Scotty 🤣
I love my XD Diesel truck. Change the fuel filter regularly and the oil every 5000. I go even farther, I change the oil filter every 2,500.
