I have the same manual shift buttons on my F-350. Not sure if it’s the same for the Nissan but it’s used to lock out higher gears which is useful for towing up hill to avoid the automatic from shifting up and down repeatedly. Yes I can go to full manual mode but it’s only useful for towing and low speed pulling. It’s not for full race mode but Doug is the kind of guy who will drag race a Diesel truck cause it has a manual mode.
I'm one of those guys that refuses to own an automatic, but my company bought work truck has a similar switch on the column shifter. I use it all the time when I'm driving. I manually downshift to engine brake coming up to every stop light, just like I do in my manual cars. I'm just glad the manufacture gave me some method of telling the transmission what I want it to do. I hate not being in full control of my vehicle.
GM, Ford, Dodge and Toyota (now Nissan) all have the exact same thing. Like you said, it’s not meant to be “sporty,” it’s for towing... it’s been commonplace for about a decade lol
Good choice, the coyote is a great powerplant and doesnt get enough credit because of the "Ego-Boost". Id rather have a V8 like a truck should have, just my opinion.
mikewolf78 it’s not just a Cummins engine, it was Nissan and Cummins who developed the engine together, Chrysler helped at first but later left the project for just Nissan and Cummins The more u know👍
Got news for you... FCA was on the lookout for a TD for their Ram 1500 and Cummins provided 2 options, a 5.0L V8 and a 2.8L I4, both being rejected by FCA 'cause (unknown to Cummins) they (through VM Motori, a Fiat subsidiary then and now) were already developing what would become the EcoDiesel, a 3.0L V6 w/ higher output numbers than those of Mercedes similarly-sized engine on their Sprinters. By the clauses of Cummins supply contract with the old Chrysler Corp. Cummins couldn't sell any LD or SD/HD engine to any other marque until FCA rejects the offer. Once FCA rejected both engines then Cummins offered both engines to Nissan, who took them gladly (the 2.8L hasn't yet been installed in any of their vehicles at the time of typing). Sadly to say, the 5.0L wasn't an option because FCA wanted lower fuel compsumption numbers than the 3.0L was able to offer, besides the fact that it's theirs (probably at a lower cost as well) and FCA felt that an I4 (they already had a VM Motori one of similar size to Cummins on their Jeep Liberty and overseas Wranglers) was insufficient for a full-sized pickup. If FCA got the 5.0L Cummins they would've need another lower output / more fuel efficient engine below it anyway...
The VM Motori 3.0 V6 Eco-diesel has been powering the Jeep Grand Cherokee since 2011, and several Maserati models too. The Cummins 5.0 V8 has ofcourse a lot more torque. I hope we will see it as a marine engine too, in competition with the Yanmar/Toyota 4.5 V8 and the Mercury/VAG 4.2 V8 diesels.
Anybody else notice that Doug never really mentioned the fact that this has a Cummins v8 turbodiesel? At one point, he calls it "Nissan's turbodiesel". It's a good review, but I feel like he should probably at least mention that this particular diesel makes the Titan XD MUCH more capable at towing than the Nissan gasoline v8. He kind of skims over the fact that it is a Cummins, which is a pretty big deal to a lot of people.
Not really a problem since he... showed that it was a Cummins engine? So there is no need to say it's a Cummins engine? I mean, I agree it's definitely not "Nissan's" V8 but still. Edit: Now that I have researched it, it's a joint production between Cummins and Nissan. So no, you are completely wrong.
Freddy Garcia no the doors besides the handles are definitely ford. Ford is the only truck (except Nissan now) to have that wave on the front doors at the bottom of the window. Complete rip off
I think he just doesn't know anything about traditional diesel super heavy duty trucks with manual modes on column shifter. I dont mind the column shifter with a manual mode.
No, no Doug, $65,000 isn't a lot for a pick-up, it's a lot for a Nissan pick-up. edit: added pick-up after Nissan for all the GTR fan boi/gurls out there.
At 7:00, the lid of the bed boxes with drink holders that 'No one in the world will ever' use; the same time that I'm thinking 'Hey I can put my coffee there while I'm digging for crap in here'
Its sad that Nissan isn't taking off with the Titan. As someone who has owned the American trucks and now owns a Titan Platinum it is definitely worth it. A solid competitor that deserves more attention. It has a far better warranty than the other offerings, better towing and bed capacity. In my opinion it looks better and the platinum reserve trim is definitely comparable to the F-150 King Ranch or Platinum or the Denali. It is definitely not perfect and the other trucks are great too but it atleast deserves respect as a solid contender now with the big three.
Yep we appear as our time zone on a bunch of devices if you look for it. Daylight savings is not and has never been a thing here. I mean it helps that you can see the sun from horizon to horizon each day lol
You don't use it because you don't tow heavy and if you did you would really want it. It is very much a open mouth insert foot on Doug's part. If you don't downshift going down a hill your brakes will be smoking. Going up a hill often the trans shifts late. Voila!!! manual mode.
It's probably been covered, but the shift buttons are typical for most truck/truck based vehicles with a column selector. It isn't so much for manual shifting as it doesn't lock you in the selected gear. Instead, it sets the maximum or highest gear the truck will shift into. This is useful for towing (avoiding overdrive gears) or crawling (going down hill and using engine breaking).

I was simply pointing out the fact that $65,000 isn't rare in the new truck world. I wasn't hating on him but just sharing my observation of where truck prices have gone these days. I was not being sarcastic and did not expect to get a reply from the man.
ive driven the titan i like it so much more better then the fords. and if it is like all other nissan's it will run for ever, especially with a cummins
T4nkc0mm4nd3r Says the dude with a raptor as his profile picture lmao. Have you even been in a Titan? I have an 07 and I have a new 2017 Cummins with 30k miles already and no issues whatsoever. My old 07 has 223k without any issues either..... I don't know why people hate on the Nissan trucks without a good argument.
"no one will ever put drinks in them"? WTF? Clearly this meterosexual has never drank beers around a pickup truck. Which is what you do the second you stop your pickup truck at your friends house. Boom..crack a beer.
I honestly think the truck did a lot better than what was said. imo this was bias due to the fact that Nissan is not known for trucks. great video but I think the truck deserves more attention. for starters it definitely looks better than the f150. my opinion
I really like this truck, I wouldn't get Platinum Reserve but the Pro 4x has my eye. Nissan is rated highly for reliability and Toyota still hasn't redesigned the Tundra.
Go for a Pro 4x, they are awesome. I bought one over tundra trd pro. Better price and features. Also tundra crash ratings not so good... fyi you can get a 3 inch lift done by dealer and keep your 5 yr 100k mile bumper to bumper warranty.
@@mikefixescars LOL Are you kidding? Nissan consistently has some the highest reliability ratings from people who actually compile data, the only people who say Nissan "sucks" are reviewers who don't like Nissan and whiny losers like you who don't know what they're talking about.
love the vids! couple points: this technically falls into the "heavy half" category. most recently it was occupied by the silverado 1500HD. basically it's a 2500 frame and suspension with a 1500 chassis rating - because let's face it: a LOT of users overload their trucks. difference is GM (and dodge when they used to make one in the 70s and 80s) cobbled theirs together from the parts bin while nissan designed this truck from the ground up to be a heavy half. in pickups the "tapshifter" isn't so much for shifting as it is for locking out higher gears. it's called an electronic range selector. allows the trans to shift thru all gears up to the selected one, so if you're towing close to GCWR and don't want to stress the overdrive gears (5 and 6 in the Aisin trans in the truck) you can select 4. it's also helpful in keeping exhaust gas temp and coolant temp down while towing on hills to use a lower gear with higher rpm. the cummins engine is an evolution of the 5.0L v8 bluebird has been using in busses for over a decade now, so it's a pretty robust engine. the transmission is the same that was used in the last generation dodge 4500 and 5500 cab & chassis models. the axles are AAM 9.25 and 11.5, same as currently used in ram and GM HD trucks. the transfer case is the same New Process unit used in current ram and ford HD trucks. this driveline (the primary reason to buy a diesel) should be pretty darn bulletproof with basic maintenance and clean fuel...
Doug is dumb, he doesn't realize those huge lists of time zones are part of one (or more) standardized databases. He probably thinks Nissan just randomly came up with that list. One thing to note is Canada/Saskatchewan has been deprecated in favor of America/Regina. This essentially holds true everywhere - it's now Region/Capital. So Manitoba would be America/Winnipeg. Nissan is probably using an old or custom version of the database which still uses some of the more common (deprecated) zones like US/Central.
You say that the shift spot is stupid. That's the same location and method used for the big 3 HD truck manufacturers in the United States, for the past several decades. My 2008 Silverado 3500 had manual mode like that and my new 2018 F250 has it in the same exact spot. Its not for downshifting to pass, its purely for towing convenience, locking out the higher gears to allow the engine to rev up into where the power is.
The manual shift buttons on the gear lever are nothing new. The current F150 has it and I first saw it in a 2006 GMC Sierra 2500HD with the Allison trans meaning that concept has been around for atleast 12 years.
green0one that’s true. Many times he was surprised by some very old features. It’s either he doesn’t know it existed or he is just mentioning it as a part of the “quirks and features”.
I'm sure many have already said this, but the manual mode isn't for sportiness... It's apart of the towing stuff, so it's fine like that, Ford does the same thing for their gear selection in their trucks... Have to admit, this is a nice truck, and that's nice, especially if you spend all day in it as a work truck...
Saskatchewan and Manitoba are technically in the same time zone but us folk in Saskatchewan are too good for everyone and their daylight savings thats why it’s usually listed as its own zone
I bought the Nissan titan reserve truck a few month ago. I really like it. I enjoy the extra cup holders, heated & steering wheel. Sharp looking truck. Happy with the purchase. Ive been a Toyota Tacoma guy so this was a switch for me.
Well I would have taken a hard look at the old Titan and Tacoma and compared the resale value and list of known problems. You got a nice truck and it will probably last because it comes with a long warranty. I think the Tacoma is the best pickup you can get and the new version is just amazing.
@@markm0000 have you been in a Ram? They are incredible and the cummins is a great engine. Along with the 5.7 HEMI and the 6.4 HEMI. Interiors are to notch and after 2012 have been dead reliable.
@@danielhan8995 Oh wow I almost fell off my chair laughing. The Titan Cummins along with the RAM 2500 Cummins are both California emissions compliant dumpster fires. You can't run those truck in a city, they will self destruct. You can't tow with them, something will break down. I think the gas engines are plenty capable on the Titan and 1500. If you got a big RV or boat get the 3500 with HEMI 6.4 and 4.10 rear ends. It will tow perfectly every day and be useable as a family vehicle for short trips around town.
How is this guy a famous car reviewer and not seen a truck with a manual shift mode on the column shifter? I know Dodge and Chevy have both been using that for years. atleast 2007 for dodge with they switched to the 6.7
Andrew Davison what a load of BS if all cars started leaking oil after 70k there would be a fucking recall, considering a lot of cars come with a 100k mile warranty and btw a friend of mine has a 2010 Chevy Malibu and it has over 120k miles and it has never leaking oil
Isn't it crazy how expensive pickups have become? You'd think at some point the public would say "ok that's too much, we're not buying it" but Ford sells so many pickups they have a parts shortage and had to shut down production.
Not only that but how expensive they've gotten in the last 5-7 years. I find that the consumer is looking for more and more luxury pickup trucks and not haul anything. Times have changed I guess. I miss the 90s GM and Ford quarter tons. Simple and lasts the stand of time.
This is a higher trim model that did not exist long ago from your frame of reference. Pickups have changed drastically in a way that makes the top trims more expensive. The base models are still cheap for what you get. You can find a new Nissan Titan for 35K new. You can buy a Ram with Cummins for 40K. And that is a lot more power 2X from 20 years ago. You can thank the EPA for a lot of the diesel cost added. There is about 10K worth of crap that most folks take off that helps reliability and MPGs. I drive a F250 and think it is worth every dollar. It is a truck designed for over 250K in miles and the scorpion engine is claimed to last for 1M miles.
Ford will keep jacking up the price of their trucks until the bubble pops. People are taking out up to 94 month loans for them. Predatory financing at it's best.
Doug....buddy. Your movies are so curious. I'm already drunk, watchin' it and viomiting. And it's still the best I could ever see...at least in that situationion. Thank you
Had our 2017 XD for about three years and still love it! Needed more than the Ford F-150 Fx4 had to offer, but less than a F-250. This 5/8 ton is perfect for us and saved thousands of dollars. Even with no trailer, this is a VERY comfortable truck. LOVE our XD and will be hard-pressed to "upgrade" to a typical 3/4 ton or higher, standard truck. I used to be a Ford guy, but this truck moved me to Nissan. I hope they bring it back to the 2017 PR Level in the future. Until they do, I'm sticking to my 2017 XD (PR). Great truck for its range.
The buttons on the column shifter aren't for manual shifting. They just limit what gear it'll go into. That way when you shift using the lever it's just PRND instead of PRND54321.
You set the column shifter on D. Then you can limit the top gear by using the buttons. Example: use the buttons to select 3rd. The transmission will only shift from 1-3. Set it on 1 it'll stay in 1st gear. The button only limits the top gear it'll be using. I assume it has a 6 speed transmission. On older 4 speeds the column would roll thru PRND321 (3 limits it to 3rd gear and under, 2 keeps it in 2nd no matter what, same with 1st). On the new 6, 8, and 10 speed automatics that'd be ridiculous to have PRND54321 all on the column shifter. The buttons just simplify it.
The windsheild wiper adjustment is for the sensitivity of the autowipes when its raining and it adjust how often it should wipe the window when it detects raindrops... its needed for when there are snow or mist ... Renault Zoe also got this function. Its great.
Titan Fan Don't listen to this negative prejudiced person. My Titan with the Cummins was $49,720 out the door. Best truck I have ever owned. If I wanted a Ford or Chevy with a diesel, you are looking at $70,000
Couldn't agree more. My 2018 Cummings titan was $50000 out the door tax included. My old truck was a 2004 gas titan and the only non- regular maintenance issue I had in 14 years was I had the fuel pump go bad. I love my new one Greg in Michigan
I love my Platinum Reserve. Yeah I’ve had to get my seat heaters, and steering box replaced. But it’s a comfortable ride with good power and lots of luxury.
@@nicklaus7552 Nope lol. That sucker was in and out of the shop monthly and they never could get the alignment right. I had seven alignments, a new set of tires, pitman arm, steering box, and a transfer case in under 30,000 miles. Plus several seat heaters, and tail light replaced due to cracking.
Just added this truck to the collection and I am extremely happy with it! I almost like it more than my Ford Raptor... which is something I never thought possible as I LOVE my raptor.

T4nkc0mm4nd3r Says the dude with a raptor as his profile picture lmao. Have you even been in a Titan? I have an 07 and I have a new 2017 Cummins with 30k miles already and no issues whatsoever. My old 07 has 223k without any issues either..... I don't know why people hate on the Nissan trucks without a good argument.
Honestly it should be 50 k at most
"no one will ever put drinks in them"? WTF? Clearly this meterosexual has never drank beers around a pickup truck. Which is what you do the second you stop your pickup truck at your friends house. Boom..crack a beer.
I honestly think the truck did a lot better than what was said. imo this was bias due to the fact that Nissan is not known for trucks. great video but I think the truck deserves more attention. for starters it definitely looks better than the f150. my opinion
Doug the type of guy to have no idea the significance of a cummins Diesel engine
You can tell Doug clearly never spends any time in truck. trucks been putting the plus minus on the colum shifter for a long time

I really like this truck, I wouldn't get Platinum Reserve but the Pro 4x has my eye. Nissan is rated highly for reliability and Toyota still hasn't redesigned the Tundra.
Go for a Pro 4x, they are awesome. I bought one over tundra trd pro. Better price and features. Also tundra crash ratings not so good... fyi you can get a 3 inch lift done by dealer and keep your 5 yr 100k mile bumper to bumper warranty.
Who says Nissan is rated high for reliability? Every review I see says they've sucked for the past 20 years

Are you stupid? Nissan has some of the highest reliability ratings. Moron.

Are you kidding? Nissan consistently has some the highest reliability ratings from people who actually compile data, the only people who say Nissan "sucks" are reviewers who don't like Nissan and whiny losers like you who don't know what they're talking about.

This is the most expensive pick up truck you can buy
Next video on his list :
Here's a tour of the Ford F150 80.000 USD pick up truck
F450s a dually. He revived a f250
love the vids!
couple points: this technically falls into the "heavy half" category. most recently it was occupied by the silverado 1500HD. basically it's a 2500 frame and suspension with a 1500 chassis rating - because let's face it: a LOT of users overload their trucks. difference is GM (and dodge when they used to make one in the 70s and 80s) cobbled theirs together from the parts bin while nissan designed this truck from the ground up to be a heavy half. in pickups the "tapshifter" isn't so much for shifting as it is for locking out higher gears. it's called an electronic range selector. allows the trans to shift thru all gears up to the selected one, so if you're towing close to GCWR and don't want to stress the overdrive gears (5 and 6 in the Aisin trans in the truck) you can select 4. it's also helpful in keeping exhaust gas temp and coolant temp down while towing on hills to use a lower gear with higher rpm. the cummins engine is an evolution of the 5.0L v8 bluebird has been using in busses for over a decade now, so it's a pretty robust engine. the transmission is the same that was used in the last generation dodge 4500 and 5500 cab & chassis models. the axles are AAM 9.25 and 11.5, same as currently used in ram and GM HD trucks. the transfer case is the same New Process unit used in current ram and ford HD trucks. this driveline (the primary reason to buy a diesel) should be pretty darn bulletproof with basic maintenance and clean fuel...

Manitoba and Saskatchewan aren't actually on the same time, Saskatchewan doesn't use daylight savings time.
Doug is dumb, he doesn't realize those huge lists of time zones are part of one (or more) standardized databases. He probably thinks Nissan just randomly came up with that list.
One thing to note is Canada/Saskatchewan has been deprecated in favor of America/Regina. This essentially holds true everywhere - it's now Region/Capital. So Manitoba would be America/Winnipeg. Nissan is probably using an old or custom version of the database which still uses some of the more common (deprecated) zones like US/Central.
Never thought i would hear someone diss a pickup truck for not having a sunroof.
A pickup truck that costs $65,000
Listen -- if I'm paying $65K for anything, it better have a sunroof. Even a trailer home.

My dad's V8 Titan with all options from 2006 has a sunroof...
Any car that’s $40k and up I say should have a sunroof. And some very nice other stuff on it too I say!

You are a moron. The Titan XD diesel can tow more than than other vehicles in its class.

Hahaha fact
You say that the shift spot is stupid. That's the same location and method used for the big 3 HD truck manufacturers in the United States, for the past several decades. My 2008 Silverado 3500 had manual mode like that and my new 2018 F250 has it in the same exact spot. Its not for downshifting to pass, its purely for towing convenience, locking out the higher gears to allow the engine to rev up into where the power is.
F-150 from the side tho..
All pickups look very similar to each other.....
Guilty Graphics3 le false
It's a pick up. You can only make them so many ways. And most people that buy them care more about other things than looks.
H9nesrly saw it and in my notifications bar and thought it was the F-150... not even lying
But it is plainly copied(or vice versa)or inspired by the F 150
The manual shift buttons on the gear lever are nothing new. The current F150 has it and I first saw it in a 2006 GMC Sierra 2500HD with the Allison trans meaning that concept has been around for atleast 12 years.
Alex Gray seriously they are on our 2013 Ecoboost f150
My 2005 Titan has them lol
2015 GMC savanna has it too
Alex Gray my 2010 Tahoe has the same feature.
Alex Gray it’s for going in mud or if you’re stuck. You don’t want it to shift into 2nd or 3rd gear if you put it in drive. It’s like a creep mode.

green0one that’s true. Many times he was surprised by some very old features.
It’s either he doesn’t know it existed or he is just mentioning it as a part of the “quirks and features”.
The manual shift on the column is very common. Ford, Ram, and GM all do it.
Lol yeah my old 2012 Ford has it...this dude is such a clown
I'm sure many have already said this, but the manual mode isn't for sportiness... It's apart of the towing stuff, so it's fine like that, Ford does the same thing for their gear selection in their trucks... Have to admit, this is a nice truck, and that's nice, especially if you spend all day in it as a work truck...
Saskatchewan and Manitoba are technically in the same time zone but us folk in Saskatchewan are too good for everyone and their daylight savings thats why it’s usually listed as its own zone
Your channel sucks what's this daylight saving everyone is talking about?
Exterior: Ford
Interior: Dodge
I bought the Nissan titan reserve truck a few month ago. I really like it. I enjoy the extra cup holders, heated & steering wheel. Sharp looking truck. Happy with the purchase. Ive been a Toyota Tacoma guy so this was a switch for me.
Well I would have taken a hard look at the old Titan and Tacoma and compared the resale value and list of known problems. You got a nice truck and it will probably last because it comes with a long warranty. I think the Tacoma is the best pickup you can get and the new version is just amazing.
@@markm0000 have you been in a Ram? They are incredible and the cummins is a great engine. Along with the 5.7 HEMI and the 6.4 HEMI. Interiors are to notch and after 2012 have been dead reliable.
@@danielhan8995 Oh wow I almost fell off my chair laughing. The Titan Cummins along with the RAM 2500 Cummins are both California emissions compliant dumpster fires. You can't run those truck in a city, they will self destruct. You can't tow with them, something will break down. I think the gas engines are plenty capable on the Titan and 1500. If you got a big RV or boat get the 3500 with HEMI 6.4 and 4.10 rear ends. It will tow perfectly every day and be useable as a family vehicle for short trips around town.

Payam yazdi You're prob a Chevy fanboy
GDGames then he enjoys his leaks too
Literally Evey modern card will leak oil after 70k. It's the nature of aluminum components. So gtf outta here.
Andrew Davison what a load of BS if all cars started leaking oil after 70k there would be a fucking recall, considering a lot of cars come with a 100k mile warranty and btw a friend of mine has a 2010 Chevy Malibu and it has over 120k miles and it has never leaking oil
No they don't leak they just have oil consumption issues.
Isn't it crazy how expensive pickups have become? You'd think at some point the public would say "ok that's too much, we're not buying it" but Ford sells so many pickups they have a parts shortage and had to shut down production.
RegressMeNot there was a fire at the parts factory so they half the F-150 production.
Not only that but how expensive they've gotten in the last 5-7 years. I find that the consumer is looking for more and more luxury pickup trucks and not haul anything. Times have changed I guess. I miss the 90s GM and Ford quarter tons. Simple and lasts the stand of time.
This is a higher trim model that did not exist long ago from your frame of reference. Pickups have changed drastically in a way that makes the top trims more expensive. The base models are still cheap for what you get. You can find a new Nissan Titan for 35K new. You can buy a Ram with Cummins for 40K. And that is a lot more power 2X from 20 years ago. You can thank the EPA for a lot of the diesel cost added. There is about 10K worth of crap that most folks take off that helps reliability and MPGs. I drive a F250 and think it is worth every dollar. It is a truck designed for over 250K in miles and the scorpion engine is claimed to last for 1M miles.
Ford will keep jacking up the price of their trucks until the bubble pops. People are taking out up to 94 month loans for them. Predatory financing at it's best.
They had to shut down production because of a fire at one of their suppliers.

Agree with the radio critique but the rest is just nit picking. Nobody gives a crap about movable cup holders and grocery bag holders.
its not "quirks and features" anymore its "design and placement criticism"
Yeah and for the most part it's inconsequential.
Had our 2017 XD for about three years and still love it! Needed more than the Ford F-150 Fx4 had to offer, but less than a F-250. This 5/8 ton is perfect for us and saved thousands of dollars. Even with no trailer, this is a VERY comfortable truck. LOVE our XD and will be hard-pressed to "upgrade" to a typical 3/4 ton or higher, standard truck. I used to be a Ford guy, but this truck moved me to Nissan. I hope they bring it back to the 2017 PR Level in the future. Until they do, I'm sticking to my 2017 XD (PR). Great truck for its range.
A Cummins? Is it still running? If so how many miles
@@Blackcrow350 Yes, Cummins. 65,000-ish miles and runs like new.
The buttons on the column shifter aren't for manual shifting. They just limit what gear it'll go into. That way when you shift using the lever it's just PRND instead of PRND54321.
Alex West I’m confused so if you use the column shifter on M then when you shift to 3 it’ll will only shift up to 3 and won’t go any higher?
You set the column shifter on D. Then you can limit the top gear by using the buttons. Example: use the buttons to select 3rd. The transmission will only shift from 1-3. Set it on 1 it'll stay in 1st gear.
The button only limits the top gear it'll be using. I assume it has a 6 speed transmission. On older 4 speeds the column would roll thru PRND321 (3 limits it to 3rd gear and under, 2 keeps it in 2nd no matter what, same with 1st). On the new 6, 8, and 10 speed automatics that'd be ridiculous to have PRND54321 all on the column shifter. The buttons just simplify it.
There is no M option on the shifter on this truck.
