2004 Nissan Titan Crew Cab
What's Special About It?
The Titan Crew Cab is the second model in the Titan lineup, and like its King Cab brother it looks like it will be a competitive truck right from the start. Fortified with a standard 5.6-liter Endurance V8 and a five-speed automatic transmission, the Crew Cab will boast a solid 300-plus horsepower and 375-plus pound-feet of torque. The suspension is a traditional independent front/solid axle rear design that allows the Crew Cab to tow up to 9,400 pounds when properly equipped. The bed is 5-feet-6-inches long and can be sprayed with a bedliner right from the factory. It can also be equipped with Nissan's unique Utili-track system bed channel system that allows for attaching various accessories as well as providing multiple adjustable tie-down points.
Nissan claims that the Titan Crew Cab has more interior space than any other full-size crew cab in its class including the 2004 F-150 and Toyota Tundra Double Cab. Rear-seat passengers can enjoy movies via the optional DVD entertainment system while all passengers can enjoy the sound of its optional Rockford Fosgate audio system. Up-level models will have captain's chairs up front and a console-mounted shifter while base models will come standard with a traditional bench seat up front and a column shift for the transmission.
Production of the Titan Crew Cab begins this fall at Nissan's new plant in Canton, Mississippi.
Why Should You Care?
The Titan Crew Cab has the power, interior space and features to make it competitive from Day One. While it may take some full-size truck buyers awhile to get used to the idea of a Japanese-engineered full-size, it will be hard to ignore a truck with so much going for it. Ed Hellwig
