2023 Nissan Titan Review from an average guy who just loves cars. 

Nice to see someone give Nissan some credit they deserve. The XD is pretty much a HD truck. It weighs what Gas F250, and GM 2500 trucks weigh. There are 2 things that keep it from full HD. It has a semi floating rear axle and 6 lugs where as the full HD trucks have a full floater and 8 lugs. The XD has HD recirculating ball steering and a full HD frame straight from the NV3500 vans. The XD can essentially tow at its max comfortably in terms of stability where as regular 1/2 tons might have some white knuckle experiences.

I have owned 2 xds, frame and suspension is different than the regular titan. Additionally it's rating actually is the same as a f250 crewcab xl 4x4. What nissan did was put it at the very bottom of the class 2 segment on purpose. They did this because they don't sell enough small cars to offset the federal government carb taxes of a mid level super duty. A f250 xl is basically a heavy Half ton. The xd you can buy the "plow package" which increases the payload and towing capacity. What is scary to me is a base f250 is nearly identical to the xd but marketed simply by name. People overload 250s all the time. I have towed at max load on both of my XDs and it towed awesome. It is too bad nissan is discontinuing them. I will also say this, those making the 8 lug comment, those are 100 percent a marketing ploy and add no additional strength to anything. Look at semis outside the USA, better yet look at fuzo or nissan class 5 or larger trucks, hmmmm 6 lugs just really big ones.

That's the same truck I have, color and everything only it"s a 2022 I just picked up for $29k as a former rental. I had to replace my old rusted frame 2005 LE with 200k on it. It won't pass inspection with holes in the frame, here in NY state. The new one is a little different than the 1st Gen Titan. I'm trying to get used to the 9 speed transmission. The old one has less HP but seems quicker off the line, a more responsive 5 speed transmission. I wanted to stay with old school rear leaf springs, which now, you can only get in 2500's, so that is a bonus for me for carrying heavy loads. Thanks for the video!

These trucks are great. I wish they were not being discontinued.

I bought a 2023 Titan PRO4X........Love it

Never thought I would say it but Nissan is killing it in the truck department these days. They aren't the fanciest trucks out there but so far they just work. Meanwhile the Tundra is a shit show and Ford's ecoboost has it's own range of problems as well.

Nice review- when it comes to full size pickups the Titan is the best kept secret out there and it's a shame this is the last year of production. Nissan could have done more and a better job of promoting it.

I love my 2023 titan pro4x I wish they didn’t discontinue them

I own 2017 Titan SD Crew Cab. Absolutely love it. Although I had my engine replaced at 8k, Nissan warranty covered absolutely everything. The comfort, the look, space. Pulling power excellent for what I need. I will keep.thid truck forever

I like how you compared two different trims. I’ve been looking at the titan for a couple years now and this pro 4x is my dream truck. Drove a new silverado the other day and it was real nice, but much more money. I like the back seat better in the Chevy but idk it’s a tough choice. That 5.6 is way better than the 5.3 in my opinion. Awesome review, thanks!

TITAN 4PROX XD for me

I got a non-XD Pro4X. Considered a XD, but I couldn’t justify the length and the regular Titan was more truck than I needed. Also saved about $2K because it was nonXD

The XD had a full HD frame and, due to its weight, is a class b2 3/4 ton although doesn’t haul more than a regular 1/2 ton but geez, tow with both.you’ll understand real quick.

Bought a 2024 SV back in March. Early yet but so far so good. I was going to go with a Tundra but was nervous about reliability. With what just came out, I’m very happy with my choice.

We had a 21' pro4x. My only two isses were the transmission, which supposedly they have rememdied with a reflash. Also, i hated how the rear door barely opened, we have kids and getting them in and out was a pain because the doors opened to like 45 degrees and not 90. Great truck otherwise. Better than the rest on the market for sure.

My 2023 Titan has the Titan Boxes and the rail system. I really like the boxes, I wish they would have kept the rails on the bed floor. My '09 Frontier has the bed rails and they do come in handy and have used them in the past. I think Nissan dropped them in 2020, so maybe I will keep an eye out for them out of a wrecked Titan and retrofit them. The mounting holes in the bed are still there.

I really appreciate this comprehensive review. Great job!

I just tried buying the bed boxes for my 23 titan and apparently they are discontinued.😢

If the Titan is like the Frontier, whatever it’s saying your gas mileage is, subtract 3. I’ve checked my 23 Frontier numerous times and it’s consistently 3 mpg worse than the computer says.

The little baby.

Less than the cost of the competition? 55k for a pro4x near me. A similarly equiped tundra is 56k. You can get a locker in any of the big 3 half tons for 10k less. Looked hard at these, but couldnt justify the price, and the transmission shifted terribly coming to a stop multiple times on the test drive.

The XD is the only way to get a 6’6” bed.

Solid review. My only critique is that one minute intro is way too long.

P there's nothing special about it. And that's why it's not selling
