I have a 2007 Nissan Titan V8 and it has 498,000 MI and still running like a champ maintenance is key if you want any truck to last
Got a 2004 with 411k I agree completely
Might be looking to buy a Pro4X Titan in the next few months. What kind of maintenance do you recommend, specifically? Regular oil changes, only?
@@jaygee2116 everything tune-up oil change of course transmission flush out have the differential fluids changed often coolant fluid changed as well fuel injectors flushed and cleaned
Did u have to replace your manifolds?
No just changing the catalyst converters that can be costly but if you shop around you can find them at a decent price
I Have 416k on my 2008 titan. Still running strong with Original transmission and engine
(Update) I now have 444k on it.
That is the mileage that I aspire to get to with my 06 Armada. Good job taking great care of your truck.
when you often change transmission fluid ?? drain & fill ?
Is that Miles or KM?
240k on my 2008 Nissan titan pro-4x shes still going strong.
@@Mike_Grengs miles. At 422k now
I own a 2005 Titan with 306k and live in upstate NY with all the winter elements and road salt....still has the original engine/transmission and transfer case....still drive it every day and regularly pull a loaded 7x12 dump trailer at 9,000lbs plus...not to mention numerous truck pulls, burnouts, mudding and driving it like its stolen. I would not think twice about driving it across the country. These trucks, when maintained are awesome.... cant wait to hit 400k. 💪👍
Hve u reached 400k yet??
My 2008 titan with 250k with no issues just oil changes
I have a 2005 with 184k.. Massachusetts winters, never garaged. Engine and tranny won't die
Mines almost to 300k no issues other than regular maintenance. I like to get it up to 500k plus
@@Jaylakhaili do u live in Europe? Those parts are expensive in the usa
I have a 05 Titan with 410,000 miles. Use it everyday and never had a major issue. Love the Titan
when you often drain & fill your trany fluid?
@@aziz9a3 general rule for trucks is every 50k-60k. 30k if you tow regularly

419,000 Miles on 2004 Nissan Titan all original and drives like a dram 🥰
That’s impressive for an ‘04. I would have expected you to have a rear axle issue with that mileage.
Mines a '05 but I still only have 68k miles on it.
any major problems?
I wish I still had my 06 I just had to sell it because I needed something bigger for towing
😮😯😲
Hello, Nissan fellows - I have a 2007 Nissan Titan with 630,365 miles. And still running g like a Champ!👍
Wow, I thought 381000 on my Titan was a lot. Good for you.
Whoa! That’s almost unheard of anymore. Im looking for a truck that will last. I love older model trucks. I’m considering purchasing an 08 with 179k on it for $9k.
What’s the key I have an 2008 Nissan armada with 157 thousand miles.
I sold my 2011 ram 2500 cummins to downsize to a half ton. I spent 6 months researching trucks that would work for me. I never even considered the titan until i read the specs on them. I got a 2009 with 198,xxx mi last year and its been awesome. My favorite part is how freakin fast they are. The fastest vehicle ive ever owned. Amazing ride quality and for the prices you get a lot of "new vehicle" features in an older truck. Honestly the most underrated vehicle ive ever seen. Truck guys that don't know about them will bash them but the guys that do know about them will understand how great these trucks really are. Only issue ive had is having to replace exhaust manifolds but theres plenty of parts out there. Also parts are NOT expensive for these great trucks too. Cannot go wrong with a first gen titan. Id suggest 2008 and up if you look to get one. 2008-2015 had least amount of known problems and they are damn good looking in my opinion.
Thanks for reading this whole post if you got to the end haha
I got to the end! Thanks for the great post.
@@carsthatlast441 Thank you! Im surprised you happened to see it! Also great video!!
I have a 2007 nissian titan and it have 315000 thousand miles and still runs good 👍
Still good?
Tundra= C Channel frame that's prone to rust issues and NO locking rear diff, ok crash test rating. Titan= Fully boxed reinforced frame and locking rear diff available, bullet proof drive train, great crash test rating and best truck warranty 5 yr/100k.
How many do you see on the road now, compared to the first gen tundra 🤣.
@@brotherdj777 A lot few were sold and you still see quite a few. Also the higher price of the Tundra would attract a more maintenance friendly crowd. The titan DOES have a better frame and all forged internals engine.
My 04 Tristan just turned 200k original engine trans fuel system
@@elizabethmiller7918 you’re right, the tundra does have a better frame (boxed frames are not stronger) and the 5.7 is a far better engine
@@flight2k5 I edited my post for clarity.
Bought my '04 king cab new and it's still going strong almost 19 years later. Very few issues with it all of which were minor repairs. Great trucks!
Did you changed the stock radiator??
I have an 2008 nissan titan and has 188000 and it runs perfect. Literally so smooth and I tow with it. Such a great truck
147k on my 2010. Changed serpentine belt and spark plugs at 110k. Everything else is factory and running solid still. Wouldn’t hesitate to drive it cross country
I have a 2008 Nissan Titan with over 250,000 miles. Just changed transmission fluid and spark plugs. No problems Great truck.
i have an 04 titan with over 300,000 miles and its still going strong. All I've ever done is regular oil changes and replace the starter. Its been a great truck.
Just bought the 2021 and I love it. I was not even interested in the Titan but after driving the Ford, Toyota and Dodge I choose the Titan. Better gas mileage and just an overall better vehicle in my opinion.
I bought a 2012 Titan new. Pro-4x with all options. I've had it just over 8 years now, and it has 49250 miles. I don't drive it a lot, but it's only purpose was to go adventuring with my son. I've had to use the 4wd system many times in all types of weather and terrain. (Family farm where I grew up.) No issues as all with this truck. It's had all suggested maintenance performed during the 8 years. I plan on keeping this truck for many more years as well. I love my Titan.
Wow I put that much on my Dodge in just 2.5 years.....that titan must just sit in the driveway alot.
2010 Texan 4wd. Only 70k. Fantastic truck. Tons of power and torque. Tows amazing.
Have a 2012 bought in new, now has 55k, tow with it all the time it’s beast, tows so nice & fun to drive, plan on keeping it for many more years. Titan has never gotten its proper due.
Wow thing must be mint! I love my ‘09, 160k, starts up every time, love the truck except for trips to gas station..
I’m looking at a 2013 pro-4x, 130k miles…$20k. Seems expensive but in 2022, F150s with cloth are going for the same price with 200k, so it seems a loaded 4wd Titan might be a deal.
I have a 2006 titan and I'm at 330,000 miles and still runs amazing
I have a 06 as well and I’m at 147,000 atm and it runs great, good to know it’ll still be running great of it ever gets to that number 😄
Yeah, after a new engine and.trany
Im buying a 06 with 200k lets see how long it last
Same here had the truck for almost 9 years now and has 344k miles & it’s 2006..
@@stevensandoval2218 Any luck so far with that 2006?
I'm trying to buy one tomorrow same year
I appreciate the depth and detail of this vid, but have to disagree on the decision.. I debated for several months between the Titan and Tundra, but in the end I preferred the Titans I test drove. Nissan's handling is smoother and the ride seemed softer (regardless of TRD or Pro4x). Also, the crew cab Tundras are simply excessive compared to the Titans. I can sleep comfortably in the back seat of the Titan, but the back row of the Tundra goes too far beyond what is necessary and simply detracts from the "truck" use of the vehicle. After driving a few of each, I would say the Titan is more of a daily use truck, whereas the Tundra is a family SUV with a bit of bonus bed space... Icing on the cake was the Titan's motor, what a beautiful sound! I would take a Tundra over American trucks anyday, but the Titan is still #1 best value in my book. By far the smoothest and best designed truck I've driven.
What year
My mom drives an 07 Tundra Limited crew cab and it's massive inside. Coincidentally my stepdad just traded his 2020 Tacoma in on a 2021 Tundra Limited TRD-offroad crew cab. Still love my Titan though.
Love
My 09 pro4x. Thing runs like a champ! I maintain it regularly, and thankfully have been spot on with all of my previous Nissan purchases.
07 maxima sl (132k, wrecked)
09 titan P4X, (160k, runs like a champ)
‘11 xterra (still going strong at 185k, plan to drive this baby till 500k!)
I have a titan with 180,000 absolutely perfect I keep reading reviews on titans and it only encourages me to keep making it last till the wheels fall off and even longer thank you
171k on my 04 Titan. I will not own another truck. I love my Titan. It does come with its issues. Cracked manifolds, and undersized brakes. I’ve replaced the manifolds with Cajun b pipe setup and a tune, brakes I will replace with 08+, and an axle vent mod does the trick for leaking seals. Getting ready to drive it across the country with a dirt bike in the back. Wish me luck
Good luck! Hope you made it ok!!?
Any issues,?
How much for the manifold including the installation ?
I bought my 1st Gen 2004 Titan for $19,500 OTD in Sept of 2004, when Ford and Chevy wouldn't let a basic model out for $24K. When I fired it up for a test drive, the motor instantly reminded me of my 1968 Chevelle SS with the 396BB and the L88 Camshaft.
I Replaced the Tranny at 246K miles, just changed the differential fluid for the 1ST TIME at 278K miles and found very little metal and the gears looked perfect. I am just now replacing the 2 front wheel hubs because I am hearing a growl on the road after changing some 6 year old tires and thought the tires may be the culprit. Yesterday I changed the driver's seat bottom cushion (swapped it with the passenger cushion since it was barely used.
My Titan has been BULLET PROOF. I have never babied it or abused it but I swear by this Truck. BTW, Bought my son a used one with 321K miles on it (back in 2016) and it purred like a kitten.
2008 Titan SE 188,000 miles. Hands down the best truck I've ever owned!! I upgraded to headers and installed UPREV software... Turned or tuned it into a beast! 😏
Same 2008 se Titan 240k miles with ceramic coated headers bully dog tuner pulstar spark plugs and throttle body spacer does a good 0-60 in 6.2 traction definitely is a problem
Hey Bill. Original of my 2004 Nissan Titan. 415834 miles and still going. GOTTA LOVE IT! No significant issues. Regular maintenance. Just noticed that the odometer has been glitching during extreme heat conditions, which is when it stops tracking the mileage. So it's very likely to actually have more than 416K miles. Great video.
Do you have a clicking noise from your climate control actuators?
@@djlcruze everyone has it😅
@@djlcruze I've got that and more. Makes a sound a bit like a duck quacking. My kid always laughs in the morning.
I have replace that actuator. It’s not that hard just go under and to the side of the gas pedal. I was quoted $1k at the dealership. Part is about $90 at the dealership. It took me like 90min to replace it coz the uncomfortable location under the radio/ac control area
I am the proud owner of a 2016 Titan XD Platinum Reserve model. So far, apart from regular oil changes I haven’t had any major mechanical expenses. I replaced the original stock tires and am expecting to have to do a brake job one of these days but that is just part of vehicle ownership. The 5.6 litre Endurance V8 has gobs of power and the interior is roomy with the most comfy seats of any I have ever sat in. The overall fit and finish is beyond that of any comparable Ford or Chevy, in my opinion and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the Nissan Titan to anyone who is contemplating purchasing a full sized pickup.
Loved the video. I will say that I know multiple people including myself with a 2011/2010 titan with over 350,000 miles and are still going strong.
thank you for making this informative video. I have a 2011 Titan I bought new...and I have simply loved this truck. It has had no major issues. I have 170,000 miles as of today. I hope to have it for another 100,000.
December 2023,
With God’s help I bought my
2012 Titan Heavy Metal Chrome edition,
And it is better and much nicer that I could find on my own,
I guess you can tell that I am loving and enjoying my Titan
Oh, and it is a pleasure to drive in our snowy winter in North Idaho!
I am grateful!
I Have a 2010 Titan 4wd V8 just hit 162,00 on my way home from work today. Love this truck!! I bought it in 2017 with 89,000 miles on it. Routine maintenance and aftermarket exhaust and wheel bearings are the only things ever done to it. Thanks for the Great review!!
Which wheel bearing did you replace on the front, and was it expensive?
311,000 on my 2012 Pro4X. It has seen some hard off road use. Never touched engine or transmission other than regular fluid changes with Amsoil. Replaced alternator at 300,000. Other than brakes, ball joints and wheel bearings, everything else is original including muffler. Runs strong.
Heyyyy, I have the same one with almost 200k and she's going strong. Love to see that people are actually using these for off-roading
@@jarenteague4105 sorry to reply after you posted this comment a year later but a lot of offroaders love Nissan products. Pathfinders (older 90s chassis) are lovely off road, the Frontier, Xtrail, XTerra are all also really good vehicles that you see sitting in the same drive way for years because these vehicles refuse to fail the driver. Nissan has dropped the ball a few times over the last 2 decades but when it comes to rough and rugged they work really great and well as much as people rag on the Altima, that car proves that they build things that should really exist (imagine any other Japanese sedan passing you doing 20-50 more than you on a high way with a ton of body damage but still driving straight)
I think the better question here is, "How many miles did your Titan have when it died and what killed it?" That would give us a better "life expectancy" than how many miles do you currently have. BTW I have an 07 with 244k and expect a lot more! No major issues other than Carrier bearing and U-joints in the drive shaft. Great trucks!!
Mine has 217, 000 miles. Running great. A main issue not mentioned is the exhaust manifolds.
Same. Mine has 204,000 and still runs beautifully except for the manifolds. I plan on replacing them in the next month or two.
i need to change mine as well. Wonder how much that will cost
@@bahenriquez1512 I think it's somewhere from 600 up to 1800 for the parts depending on quality.
I have a 2006 205057 and same manifolds am planning to replace with long headers still running great
@@bahenriquez1512 650 parts and 800 labor unless you do it your self. Might as well upgrade to Cajun B pipes and JB headers which have great reviews. I bought mine last year but haven’t had the time to change them out yet and will probably have a shop do it
Highly underrated truck which suits me just fine... I have a 2007 with just 95,000 miles and its been incredibly reliable to this point with a solid drive train. Good to see others in comments that feel the same.
As someone who just purchased a beautifully conditioned 2018 Nissan Titan SV with 90k miles (purchased for 22,000), i’m feeling great about my buy after reading all these fantastic comments!
I have a 2013 with 80,000. She’s a baby and still drives like a brand new truck. Only issues I’ve had are with brake master pressure sensor, (covered under warranty)and the common manual shift button/switch issue. Great truck overall
08 Titan, currently 344k miles and running like a champ. Did replace exhaust manifolds with headers
2011 Titan SL used as a service truck with 298K and still running strong. Liked it so much I just bought a new platinum reserve for my personal driver. These trucks are highly under rated.
I’m surprised just how underrated it is tho!
Hi Bill. I just found your channel and am enjoying it. One thing I've done in the past to measure vehicle reliability is to ask an auto dismantler about their replacement prices for the major powertrain components. The way dismantlers price their parts is by use of a computerized supply and demand algorithm. More reliable parts are comparatively less expensive because the demand is less and visa versa. I learned about this from my brother who runs a dismantling yard. He's the guy I call to find out which models and powertrain combinations are less prone to failure. Thanks for your videos !!!
I just bought an 09 yesterday for $15k with 113k miles and in nearly perfect condition, I love it!
I had an 2005 titan that had 345k. Had it for 10 years before I traded it in for my 2015 Sierra 2500. The titan never let me down what do ever. Even my 2012 Xterra is at 135k and not a single problem( knock on wood).
I’ve got 2011’xterra with 185k, and a 2009 Pro4x titan with 160k. Both run strong drive great! Routine maintenance on both vehicles, just changed the front suspension on the xterra 184k miles on stock suspension.. of course it was shot, but 184k on stock springs is great! Up next, front suspension and add a leaf,
Same upgrades done on the xterra the titan is getting next. Loved all my nissans, I take care of them, and will for the time coming be a Nissan guy. Started with
My 07 maxima sl, thing was a beast in itself.
I had a 2000 Xterra and absolutely loved it. Traded it in 2016 with 250k. Bought a Kia, sold a Kia 6 mo later, bought my Titan. Never looked back. Love my truck 240k and runs like a top!!
Just hit 450,000 on my 2005 Titan. So far the major issues have been that we had to replace the rear end and the exhaust manifolds are paper thin leading to cracks. I replaced the exhaust manifolds with a pair of JBL shorty headers and had dual exhaust put on. No issues since. This is our spare truck as we have 2015, 2108 and a 2021 F150. Many more issues with the F150s...
Yes I had to replace my exhaust manifold too
Hows that 2108 look kindof futuristic
My 2005 Titan SE 4wd has 381,000 miles. Replaced the exhaust manifold around 100K, just replaced fuel pump. Have replaced the camshaft position sensor relay ($30) once and brakes pretty often (I pull cargo trailer for work). I love it.
Not that's an honest review from someone who uses his truck. Thank you Sir.
Big brake upgrade is a must for titans when hauling👍
I have 2005 Nissan Armada with over 430,000 miles, still runs great, original engine and transmission. Just recently had to replace front catalyst converters. Perfect for towing fully loaded two horse trailer!!!
Own two 06 and 19. The 06 ish years had problems with exhaust manifolds and blend door actuator. I fixed both myself for about $60. The 06 runs still runs great and I gave it to my 16 yr old son.
2012 with 101k. I'm huge on preventive maintenance so i plan on keeping this truck for a long time. I had a 2006 that I loved as well, but hurricane Sandy took it from me. Great truck that I want to run for many years to come. Greatest underated truck out there.
I have a 2007 SE crew cab 4x4 with 202k on the motor and a rebuilt transmission 5k ago. I swapped in an external transmission cooler on the radiator and added a long breather tube for the rear differential. It does need the exhaust gaskets replaced, but runs like a top and has zero issues. It has a performance chip, dual exhaust, and a 2.5” lift with 295-70-18 tires. I would highly recommend picking a decent used one up as they are easy to maintain, have relatively few issues, a ton of power and space. Very underrated and I have owned all brands of full size trucks, even Toyota.
I special ordered my Titan in 2003 and received it the first week in January of 2004. No issues at all. Only had to replace the radiator due to rock causing a pin hole leak in it. Gas mileage sucks compared to my old Silverado but very reliable and still get compliments on the truck.
2004 titan 352566. Original drivetrain. No engine or trans repairs. Look at tundra. How many of them can say that? I own a repair shop. I have done my share of tundra timing chains etc..... Titans rule. You should have compared repair cost!
If you know about Tundras and toyotas 4.7 v8......they use timing belts. What kind of mechanic are you? Lol
@@ricecakeFTW got eem!
@@ricecakeFTW The 4L 4.6L and 5.7L have a timing chain 3.4L and 4.7L have belts.
Just bought my 3rd Titan pro4X. Its the 2024, last of the Titans. I have never had a problem with any of my trucks except the radio went out on my 2019. It was replaced under warranty. All my trucks had over 100k
The link is for a Phoenix head unit for Titan that is like a Tesla head unit
I worked for a carwash and had a titan with 700k on the odometer and looked the part. Literally felt like a slinky driving it
2005 Titan with 275,480 miles, all original except for a aftermarket three core aluminum radiator, long tube headers, tune in truck, I did manage to break a couple axels doing burn-outs with my truck, has the 2.94 gears in rear, with positive traction, best et was a 14.50 at 94 mph, it's a heavy truck. love it!
2010 Titan with 212k miles. Still runs like the day I got it with 32k miles. No major issues outside of wear and tear and normal maintenance. Original engine and transmission. I keep up with the maintenance on it pretty good.
Nissan Armada included. We got one that is used and abused 2005. Se off-road. 230k Gets an oil change occasionally. Hauls and tows. But that 5.6 and bulletproof 5 spd automatic. Can’t beat em.
The old Armada is legit the best car ever made. You can fit a full size couch and close the trunk, and still somehow manages to beat an old sports car in a race, also gives a jeeps 4x4 a run for its money.
I have a 2005 Nissan Titan LE with 205500 miles love this truck Biggest job was Transmission rebuilt @ 197500 miles. Runs great plan on keeping until it can't drive anymore
I have a 04 titan 4x4 king cab with 199K, my dad got it in 08 handed it down last year with nothing but regular maintenance and it’s still doing a great job. I love that truck and hope to keep it for a long time. Fingers crossed.
I think the car last based on how you use it, if its a daily works flawless, if you run it in the mud more than likely you will have issues. I have 245000, only had to change the starter and that was 6 months ago after having the vehicle since 2011 brand new off the lot! Love it.
I have a 2009 Titan SE with a little above 196k miles.. Engine and transmission still pretty solid. Never really had major issues other than having to replace the radiator and the starter.
Bought a 2005 Titan back in April with just under 100k...love it! Damn bulletproof! A cpl months earlier my buddy picked up a 2016 Tundra same miles and is already having some issues. All in all they are both great trucka though...we also have a 4runner that is every bit as reliable as my Titan...
215K on my 2007 4x4 crew cab... still runs strong. Other than normal wear and tear and typical gadgets/gizmos/bells/whistles that go bad, it has been trouble free.
Just bought an 08 Titan XE with under 94000 miles. Truck is pristine and drives like new. Not a single rattle.
Im 20 years old. Bought my first pickup. Chose the Titan. Im reading all these comments saying they can reach 250,000+ and still run strong.
I think I made the right choice
Update #1: Nearing 3 years of ownership (135k miles). Still running strong. Only thing that had to be replaced was a brake light switch. $30 part. 5 minute job.
My 2009 Titan has 130k on it. I did have the rear axle seal issue at 95k. Replaced the seals and bearings, now I'm more diligent about making sure the differential vent is clear as that is the cause. I do a lot of preventative maintenance on her so knock on wood she is very reliable. Here in the northeast the rust is an issue so I'm not sure she will go over 200k without some frame and bodywork. But like you said, I like driving a truck that not a lot of people have. She looks great (Rancho quick lift for the front) and runs great with a lot of power both off the line (Banks cold air intake and banks 3" exhaust) and she tows awesome! Thank you for the video.
I'm the second owner, my dad being the first, of my 04' Titan. The wheel bearings (or axle bearings) were always something that was spoke of but it has only happened twice in my memory, once in my two years of ownership. The transmission went out at 200k but we did dog it out and didn't maintain it the best but other than that it is been a great truck it has 230k now and it's been the only truck I've known and loved.
I have a 04 Nissan Titan, I got 220,000 still tuning good, love it!!
I just bought a 06 less than a week ago it has a lot of miles but Idc I always wanted one
@@mllisktv1235 my father bought his 06 back in 06 new/low mileage I believe. Till this day still running strong. taking it everywhere across California since he’s a carpenter. Bulletproof truck. I don’t think he’s ever had any major issues/repairs besides the usual oil maintenance lol
Mine is a 2004 and just passed 377,000 miles with minimum repairs
Great information, and comments help. I'm going to go pick me up a 2012 Titan. It's got 84,000 miles, but I'm confident it'll last. Thank you.
My Nissan Titan is a 2008 with 174k miles. I’m first owner and never had a problem. Runs great and strong!
I have a 2005 Titan, my first Truck bought it 4 years ago with 170,550 runs good. Unfortunately @ 195,550 the Transmission went, but had it rebuilt. RUNS GREAT. Now @ 201467 miles .Rides smooth with no issues, very satisfied with my purchase. Paid 5k 4 years ago
I fully intend on buying a Titan soon.
I had a 2010 SE which was a great truck. I now drive a 2019 Titan SV 4x4. No complaints.
Do it!Had I not bought my Mustang,I would've got an 08 Titan KC.But these trucks are very bulletproof,and still affordable.
I just bought an 07 XE Crew cab. Pretty awesome so far. Has 153k and im only going to drive it about 2k miles a year. It should last a long time before major repairs haha
I just bought a 17 titan xd diesel loving everything about it
Highly recommend
Got a 2008 Titan PRO4X with 128,000 miles on it, it’s been a great truck!! No major issues at all! Lifted the rear about 4” and the front 3.5”with the billistein 5100 shocks. Rides really well being lifted this high.
I’m looking to buy the same year and model, but with 169k miles. How is yours holding up and would you recommend it for long road trips with some off road use?
2009 titan, 204540 miles replacing fuel pump today no other issues and she’s still my charm, smooth, speedy whenever needed.
I have a 2004 Nissan Titan LE with 315058 on the clock. I do all my own maintenance and repairs and I just last week took it to a transmission shop to replace my broken flywheel and one the guys working on my truck took it for a joyride and blew my engine up. This is literally the first time I had ever took my vehicle anywhere to get serviced. Hence the reason why I do all my own maintenance.
2007 Titan SE Crew cab. Original owner. 156000 miles. No issues and never been in for any repairs. I perform all maintenance. Best truck. I had two Ford trucks and will never go back. Just installed General Grabber APT tires. Ready for another 150k miles.
2008 Nissan Titan SE 4x4 KC with 212,000. Original Engine and Transmission are still running great! I Tow a boat with it every weekend. Only had to replace some EVAP sensors.
I have a 2006 Titan. I have 400k on my truck and it’s still going. Best truck I have ever owned and I have owned them all.
My 2007 Titan went 315,000 and some change then i sold it.....loved it.....i have a 2018 Titan now bought new and love it
2007 Titan owner 270,000 miles, it runs smooth, no check engine yet, synthetic oil since new, oil and filter change every 7,000 miles.
235,000 on mine going strong
I just bought a 06 less than a week ago 190, but idc people are moving out the way hearing that 5.6 liter and imm loving it
My 2006 Titan has a little over 187K miles. I love it. There have been no major issues with this truck. Of course, suspension needs attention like new bushings and such but no mechanical or electrical issues. With having less than 200k so far, I'm looking forward to driving this machine for many miles to come.
08 Titan at 267K miles. Still a beast. Changing the fluids is key! Love my Upreved truck….
2007 Titan 4x4 with 250k. Flawless truck and I still tow about 6k pounds normally. The only thing I've done is upgraded the transmission cooler.
I have an 06 Titan with 238k miles. Still runs fine. The only things changed were routine maintenance and also things that typically go out such as fuel pump (at 200k) and the starter (around 150k). I’m looking to get to 300k before I trade it in. I put a lot of upgrades in it like a touch screen, fog lights/control switch, backup camera, and the LTE rearview mirror
I’m looking at getting a titan there’s a 08 but it’s a flex fuel motor would you recommend just getting the 06
Just bought a 2008 Titan 134k miles on it, no leaks, smooth tran so far, no crud in the coolant overflow, levels are stable. Rich exhaust fumes however... Love the info you gave.
I read that one problem area with Titans can be cracked exhaust manifolds. They have to be replaced if so.
Had an 05 and then an 07. Loved both of them. Had to replace a U joint on my 07 at approx 70k miles but that was my fault because I loved pinching the gas pedal. Thanks.
Gen 1 Titans are amazing. 199999 on my 05 and counting. Best truck I have ever owned.
I've got to weigh in on this because I am the worst owner a vehicle ever had. I'm on my second Titan bought my first in 05 new, put 270,000 miles on it. I changed the oil every 12 to 15,000 miles drove it everyday as a work , a rear end in at 180000. Brakes and Tires were the only other expenses.
I bought an 08 in 2015 and I still drive it same situation, I treat trucks like crap. Start every time and has never let me down. 240000 still going strong. But there are two issues about these trucks pre 2009, the cats clogged up at a hundred and seventy-five thousand miles in both trucks and the rear end leaks in both trucks I replaced the one as I described above but not the 2008. I'm in the market for a 2015 Titan with less than a hundred thousand miles so I can beat the hell out of it too. It is the perfect work truck
Can you explain what you mean by rear end leaking?
If the breather on the rear differential is blocked pressure will build and damage the seals.
I own a 2012 Nissan Titan Pro4x 160k I've owned the truck for a little over 5 years. The only issue I've had was the battery terminal became corroded and broke. I lost all power. I had changed all fluids as needed. The truck is great, plenty of power. I towed a 25 foot Bennington tritoon from Illinois to Hot Springs Ar. No issues at all. I've driven to Florida 2 times, Louisiana, Missouri. The truck continues to impress me. If you have any doubts, DON'T.... These trucks are made to last. Maintenance, is key.
Love my Titan! It is my second Nissan truck and they are both amazing life dependable and hard-working.
I have a 04 with 220k on it. I live in the Northeast. Still runs great also with orig engine, trans, starter. Just normal wear and some rust in the rear wheel wells now. But..... she runs great. I have new car and if you asked me to drive to Cali, I'm changing the oil, and in my Titan I go!!!
Bought a loaded 2015 T for $11k with 65k miles. If it was a Tundra that would've been the down payment. The T does everything I ask it to do and more. Great truck with tons of tow capacity and is a joy to drive.
I have an 2004 Titan on 10/21/21 I had 222,534 miles and the truck runs great still. Only had to replace starter and 1 rear axle seal. Good strong motor. I love this truck so much. Ted
I have a 2009 Nissan titan it has 56,000 miles I purchased it new. Change the oil every 3500 miles with synthetic. The only issue I’ve ever had is the actuator door motor for the HVAC. I absolutely love my titan I hope it never fails
How long will a Titan last? Good question, I'm still driving my 2004 that I bought in the summer of 2003 and it's still going strong. They're under appreciated trucks for sure.
2014 titan pro 4x. 140k miles. Major problem faced: snapped a differential axle, dealer wanted 2200 just for the part to install brand new differential, Fixed it rather easily myself for 600 in parts
I have a 2006 and I'm crossing 195,000 this week I had no issues until 180,000 miles when pretty much all suspension parts got switched out. I replaced the cracked header at 120k , I also now have a powersteerong leak that is very small as well as needing upstream o2 sensors. Feels super strong and I've babied it the best I can. It gets worked hard and we love bringing it out camping !
I have a 2006 Titan with 167,000 miles. Have had no major repair issues, just regular maintenance such as hoses, belts, valve cover gaskets. I did have to replace the clock spring a while back which I understand is common. Still runs strong.
I purchased a 2004 Titan for $3,000 with 165k miles. This truck is uglier than homemade soap. Every panel has a small dent or scratch. But the interior is mint. Runs like a champ every time. Probably the least likely truck to get stolen. I like that.
I live in snowy MN, like your analysis based on data. I would love to see some stats on top cars for snowy climate (handling, body/frame condition, affordability, etc.).
2011 Titan, have towed a lot with it and use a lot. Only have 85K but have only had to replace a heater part, did it myself, not a difficult or expensive repair. Very happy with our Titan!
I have a 2011 and also had a minor heater problem, only issue I ever had.
my 04 had 238k when it was taken from me by a brain dead rut buck. best truck I ever owned, it saw me through the lowest parts of my life with almost no maintenance for 20-30k at a time. it never let me down. I wish I still had it for the nostalgia and memory's.
I'm only at 80,000 on a 2010 king cab. The only problems I have had was 1- The climate control actuators, but because they are buried behind the dash the labor is over $1000 (Parts and labor). 2- a little rust over rear wheel well which is common on any pickup over 10 years old and 3- a corroded steering pump cooler line ($400 parts and labor). Minor issues have been... Rear sonar speaker ($10 fix, no skill required) and the tailgate lever linkage disconnecting (free fix, minor skill required). Never had a check engine light and I love it and will hopefully keep it for another 10 years. I'm not light footed either... 😎
Just got a 2017 SV. The engine is sure to be bullet proof, my only mild concern is the 7 speed auto that was only around for a few years and now they’ve already gone up to a 9 speed. It’s not a CVT thankfully, but only time will tell how it holds up. I have seen a few 2016-2019 models for sale with over 100k miles already. Not that high sure, but at least there’s some hope for the newer model. I AM happy about the Nissan 5 year/100k mile warranty, and will probably extend it end of next year just for assurance. I paid 33k for my SV Crew can 4x4 with 28k on it. It has all available options so basically an SL package to boot. I could not find an F150, Silverado/Sierra, or a Tundra for within $5000 that had even remotely similar options and no crew cab Tundra’s under $40k period.
You still paid too much, I would not pay over 30 for a Nissan Titan, even at top trim level. You gotta get dealers to price match each other. The Titan is not an in demand vehicle and they will be more desperate to move them.
@@smsteger89 no they’re not. Do some research. More people willing to buy them than supply allows. They don’t have the Toyota tax though.
just bought an 06 crew cab 2wd with 219xxx on it. had about a month. but it handles like a dream. always been a southern truck. averages around 13/14mph (I drive it about 75-80mph for around 1hr round trip to work everyday.)
handles my 2000lbs trailer loaded with average 6k load on it like nothings there. and the tow mode kicks ass when it comes to braking.
My 08 Titan just hit 200,000 Great truck. Always used Amsoil synthetic. Love my Titan
