This Is What We Learned After 6 Months of Living with the 2018 Nissan Titan 

Honestly, I love that there's no sun roof on the Titan Pro 4X...one less thing to leak...

Why didn't you explain your 6 month experience??? You're just explaining features that you already did in the intro videos. Poor video guys

I've owned three Titans sold each with over 300,000 miles and just bought my fourth excellent trucks.

So could you crap on a truck more? Its a great truck and a value in the market.

You forgot the 100,000 mile warranty. No one comes close.

I've been driving Titans for 11 years and love them, my 2018 4x4 SV is awesome mph average 18 navigation work seamless it will learn the way you talk but will get confused if two people speak at the same time. Absolutely the best truck on the market in my opinion and the best warranty on any vehicle 100k bumper to bumper

This is a nice truck, better than these guys are saying it is!

I don't understand why reviews of any product outside the big 3 of Ford, GM, Ram are so convoluted. I like watching your videos, but I cannot but sometimes feel that there is an underlying tone to always lean toward the big 3 and while other brands seem to have the good, ...BUT... always included. For example, this review presented an opportunity to provide real world feedback that real truck owners want to know. Your review should have focused on this opportunity instead of wasting so many minutes on non-relevant non-sense included in most of the first 2/3rds of the video. Categories like: fuel economy: you read the gauge at 12.x on the display. Everyone knows these displays present a calculated average for the session and do not real world mixed highway/city mpg unless constantly refreshed after each driving session. Anyone that uses these trucks know the real average is 16-18 mpg, in the 1/2 ton truck class. Nissan truck owners also know from experience that Nissan trucks typically score on the lower end of the mpg average range when compared to other truck brands, and has been so constant in previous generations of Titans and is so for the Frontiers in the mid-size as well. reliability: It was not until the last 1/3rd of the video did you speak about what matters, how the truck performed well over the 6 month time frame with no issues, mechanical or otherwise, no check engine lights, etc... Nathan stated "user experience was good when used on vacation by wife and family, ... hey this matters when our passengers have no complaints! Each of you spoke positively, yet in the end such a mediocre recommendation, I cannot recommend to buy it? What? Its like going to a restaurant, cleaning off your plate in 30 seconds, and the waiter asks how was it, and you say... "the steak could have been bigger, the veggies needed more butter, ...." just say it was good! This is important when multiple people are using the truck and no one can point to a real complaint or problem to report. focusing on a lack of engine choices, when the engine that is offered is for all intent and purposes established over several years of service and known to be a solid performer is silly. Evaluate what you have in front of you, a simple statement that it is the only engine available is enough.Why waste time about a lack of engine choices because Ford or GM or RAM offer choices. Everyone knows that multiple choices/configurations is an American Automotive thing and that most other brands do not follow this model. Focusing on a lack of 8" or 10" display, only one engine choice or how it looks like a 2014 Ford....really guys? You are better than this. Here are the facts, all truck mfgs discount their trucks so suggested mfg pricing means nothing. All truck mfgs over state the towing capability to an unrealistic number and even in this video I believe I heard Nathan state that he would not tow 11k in the Rebel even though it is rated for it. That's right Nathan. You know it is not safe. So when Nissan says the Titan is rated for just under 9300#, this is more realistic and honest. In the end as your drive was finishing you were saying positive things, nothing negative, yet you then conclude "it is not a buy" and revert back to the earlier comments unrelated to the overall performance and experience of using the truck. As a truck owner & purchaser since 1983, I appreciate real word first hand experience of other people. From your review, your ownership experience was good, but your professional commentary and conclusion is less than .... I really do not want to say out of respect. When paying more than 50K for trucks, it seems reliability is #1 to me. Bells and whistles, sun roofs, 10" screens and 10 speed tranny? Will these new 10 speeds hold up? I know the 5 and 6 speeds work well. I am a truck guy. I own a Chevy 4500 chassis cab and a Nissan Titan XD cummins today. I have owned F250 before. I have owned Frontiers before. My friends own Chevy HDs, RAMs, I have driven F350 7.3s for work. I am familiar with the product. Most of these new trucks have more things in common that anytime in the past. I know two things today: 1-My Chevy and its Vortec 6.0 get the job done! 2-My Titan XD Cummins and do everything Nissan says it is rated for and then some. When towing 9K or 10K trailers, I have to keep reminding myself the trailer is back there. And it is soooooo comfortable for my 58 year old fat **s. This is what every towing experience should be like. In conclusion: Just report on the product you have in front of you. Not what you think it should be compared to what others are doing. We can decide for ourselves from there. Thanks for the videos.

The transmission will prob outlast all those 8-10 trans

fewer engine options is good... it lowers parts cost due to less types needing to be stocked....

I have a 2018 Nissan Titan Texas edition, and I love the truck but I do think that the shift points does have a lag in it need to be quicker shifting, navigation system is a little disappointing as well. This is my second Titan I recommend Nissan Titans.

It's so dated ???? Hell the Nissan interior alone is 2 model years ahead of the 19 Chevy Silverado in refinement !!! Sorry I disagree I think the Titan is a solid buy it !!!

Always had nissan trucks in the family. Its a great truck strong simple and reliable. Tech is great but for a workhorse you dont need it. Glad nissan and toyota understand the formula.

Well people were asking for a "long term" review of a Truck and you guys gave it to them in TFL fashion. I like the truck especially in that yellow color (the only truck that I do like in yellow, not the BIG BIRD Ram), yes it is somewhat behind in tech than the domestic, same goes for the Tundra, but it is a solid reliable truck that can do what you need it to unless you want to tow more than 8k. Great Long Term Buddy review guys, thanks for sharing.

As an owner of an 08 titan (w 252k on the clock) I can say this truck won me over (im a gm guy). Still solid and the 5.6 has plenty of grunt left. Sure, Id love a newer 2nd gen pro 4x; but I trust my titan to get me another 50k at least. Just Id love to know why truck dudes hate on/overlook this truck so much? Its modern, but simple and reliable, what the hell do you want out of a truck? Gimmicky crap the big 3 have been peddling?

The Nissan sounds like an AMG Mercedes V8. Delicious

I want that V8 in my Frontier.

NISSAN titan lover here!

Great overall review. I have a 2018 Titan pro4x , and I really like it.

I don’t much care for too much technology. Too many things to go wrong. I would definitely consider a Titan

Who actually uses a sunroof 8n a truck anyway?

I love my 2017 Nissan titan pro4x that the best 400 horses 400tork

I sold a 16 F150 to buy this truck. I love everything about the Titan over the Ford. Drives smoother and is much more comfortable. I’m getting 17.3 MPG overall. My Ford got 17.7. The Titan is an incredible truck! Not perfect, but for my uses, better than the rest.

Cool gadgets and tech packages will not get you off the side of the road. I'm tired of the pruis guy reviews when it comes to trucks...

Mine is a basic Titan S 2017 2 door work truck, every day driver 80k km now, zero issues runs like a clock, I had a 6 year old F150 work truck before this and the Titan makes it look like a girl! No comparison, just a great rig.

Say what you will, the 5.6 V-8 on this truck is amazing. Yes not the most fuel efficient but a great engine a workhorse. Rather have a V-8 over any four or six cylinder engine.

I liked the review, very informative, fact based. I am looking at a 2020 Titan to replace my 2004 with 220K miles on it. My old Titan will just not die and I am not complaining. It sounds and runs as good as the first day I bought it. I haven't put a dime in the truck minus regular maintenance. Not a pitch for Nissan, really. I hate the Nissan stealerships and what they call customer service. But I will easily trade a little worse MPG and not being the first to the next stoplight for when all those turbo's wear out and Ford shows you the repair bill, that only they can fix, because you need 69 Ford tools to work on it.

I love my 2018 titan....Pro 4 X...best truck I ever owned...I had them all....this is a great truck....American Made.....

The track in the bed, i think its called utili trac and its very handy

I have a 17. Engine started knocking at 28k miles. Thank you to the warranty, brand new engine was installed. Pretty well known issue for the 17/18 models

You said "The interior looks like a bunch of Nissan parts." Um it is a Nissan...................were you expecting Chevy or Ford parts? Scratches head

I have a 2017 Nissan Titan Pro4x and I love the truck with the exception of the outdated infotainment system. I had the entire rear axel and a front axel replaced under warranty because the service department noticed the bearing seals were pinched from the factory. I also had a radio replaced under warranty because it kept restarting while talking on bluetooth. Besides those issues the truck has been fantastic. And I got my truck for 8k below asking price through truecar.com I know they said they would lease it but I'm seriously thinking about buying it after the lease is up.

Titans do sound fantastic. Add some Flowmaster or Magnaflow (I’ve had both) to really get the sound a notch or two above the others. I have a pair of Flowmaster 40 series now and they are aggressive without being too aggressive and have none of that gross rasp so many seem to have now.

Hey TFL guys, I really love the channel and all the real world reviews you do. I actually traded my frontier and bought a new 2018 titan based on these videos. Thank you and keep up the awesome channel .

Roman complaining that it looked like Nissan threw a bunch of Nissan parts in the interior. What does he want Nissan to put in there? Ford parts? 🤔

I’ve been living with a used 2017 Titan for 5 years and I love it. I’m about to upgrade the Suspension for off roading.

Bought a 2019 end of last year - only reason is its the only truck I could get with 100k warranty -- first foreign truck I've owned.....but I use it for traveling Houston to new Orleans. I have a "fun" truck also. I prefer the GMC interiors and Dodge has really stepped it up but a 15-20k difference and I couldn't get the same warranty

Good review. Where's Nathan been lately? We'll miss "Big Yeller." :)

Id buy it... Cause i hate sunroofs but love leather seating.... I like V8 power without start stop (hate start stop) ....its simple....texhnology can be added aftermarket, as for fuel millage ... Its controlled by your foot ....or can be tweaked by a performance programmer. Also, the 7 speed.... Cheaper to fix when it does go. For a full size truck ...small truck pricing with a full size body. Plus, theres no aluminum panels. No blinspot or lane assist, no problem....less stuff to go wrong. check it manually!!. The column shifter i can live with it although id prefer a console shifter. Id buy that. Even if as a used truck. Just not in yellow :) My other choice, is the Tundra.....id buy it....comming from a guy who love to get basic 4 door trucks...in 2WD when possible too ....am in Canada btw :)

Good value? While the high end "big 3" are much more expensive you don't need to buy those to be a good competitor. It's outdated and bleh looks good but don't know why you'd buy it over anything else

I bought my nissan xd 2018 with 12 k miles for 28500. Awesome truck. So smooth (mine is gasoline). Loaded 2500 lbs on back of it and didn't even notice.. the only thing that stink, and it is big, 15 mpg city, 18 highway. If you drive 60 mph iy is possible to get it all the way to 22 mpg

Those navigation systems are absolutely as useless as tits on a boar hog. I loathe mine on 2015 F150. Nothing can be compared to Raptor. There's no other truck like it. For me, Nissan and Toyota need to address mpg. No. I don't buy trucks solely on mpg, but hey, I'll take every mile I can get from high dollar gasoline. No reason they should not be getting maybe 18-19 highway. I can live with a solid 18 highway. I think there are 3 dated trucks: Tundra, Titan, and to a lesser degree GM.

0:27 Poor Andre went in for a bro hug and got completely turned down. This is a late comment but I hope to see more bro hugs soon. Very disappointed.

Damn, stock exhaust? That Endurance makes an exhaust note that most people spend $$ aftermarket for! The interior is an anachronism to the exterior, though.

i think its the automotive press thats pushing so hard for more technology... every construction job site i work at only about one in ten guys wants or uses the tech and would rather have crank up windows that a giant screen or wifi hot spot...and those tech guys all have a smart phone so its all useless to them too

I enjoy watching this channel, but some of the options they deem important for basic inclusion on trucks is absolutely ridiculous.

Thank you for testing the titan pro 4x. I have enjoyed your videos. I love my pro 4x. I was the person that met you guys in Moab.

'In the hyper-competitive truck market this is already dated'. I agree.

I have to admit, you guys need to chill, pipe your voices down and let one person do the talking for the navigation testing. You guys are over talking each other and making the voice assistant have trouble making out the voice commands. Like I get that voice command systems are very lengthy and not as advanced as such as Siri or like Alexa, but voice commands systems in general can’t read voices when there’s more background noises around. Like Try using Siri in a NYC Times Square. You guys have been really having trouble to get these vehicle’s command systems to work except that Infiniti which passed. It just seems to me like you guys try to rush this process as well since you guys are quickly coming to the bumpy section test. This furthers complicates the system to read your voice, because you guys are more likely to slur your words and say quick rap lines that the system can’t pick out, making the vehicles fail even more. And then you guys also do your typical lines and humour when the system is activated to read your commands, but since it doesn’t recognize your humour or vehicle review comments as commands, it just does it typical “please say a valid command, blah blah blah,” which makes you guys think it fails and unresponsive and therefore you guys would rush to quit the system and therefore fails the test. I’ll be honest, I don’t think this test is very necessary if you guys can’t do it properly. Might as well scrap this test.

As a 2017 Nissan Titan thank you for review. I have no regrets about purchasing the truck I chose. You forgot to mention Nissan’s 10yr 100,000 mile warranty.

People really hate on any non American truck. The big three are good but being a titan owner, not only do they age well, they end up in the shop way less

I recently bought a used 16' Titan XD SL 4X4 with the 5.6L gas engine. I needed a daily driver that could tow a horse trailer and it works fine for that. So far, I love this little truck except for the MPG. Though I wish I had the heated steering wheel, rear locker, and goose neck wiring port in the bed like the one you tested.

I have the Midnight Edition SV and I agree that the Nav system is disappointing. However, the truck is comfortable and quiet., sounds and looks awesome, and has lots of power.

I love my 2017 Titan I bought mine with 40k miles and it was still cheaper than any Chevy I looked at. 2015 Silverado with 75k miles and a v6 was the same price??? Nissan is definitely under the radar on a well built truck and they have no where near the problems as the other trucks. Titans are just as good as the rest and alot cheaper anyone looking in a full-size truck this is well worth looking at and just putting cold air intake can increase mpg. Mine went from 16.4-17.5 to 18.7-20.3 with just k&n.

Got a 2017 Titan SL CC 4x4 and love it.

Best full size truck on the market. Nissan did a fantastic job designing this truck.

complaining about one engine option when its an engine you can shoot and it wont care is a bit much lol

Any hood paint chipping?

Nissan and Infiniti shouldn't let them (TFL) do video on any of there vehicle... These days I hardly watch TFL any new video...

Damn, The kid in the rear seat, didn’t even said response to his father Hi. and f*** already started his review. Disrespectable...b

You guys are doing the Navigation part all wrong. you have to wait for the system to go through it's programmed menus then you talk to it. Remember it isn't a smartphone. It's a cruder OS.

I ended up buying the pro4x out the door with all the options for $39,500, I wanted the Ford but with the same options it was $54,000. I just couldn't do it

There is alot of unreal view points in this review, I owned a ram 2014 / 2500 diesel- I got rid of it because It broke and was in the shop 8 times in 1 year and it cost more ... My 2016 titan prox4 has been a great truck I'm at 61,000 miles .. great engine and realiable at great value .... domestic brands wear more makeup but are trash . For real owners that keep there vehicles and put 100,000 miles plus TITAN is great truck and is a off road beast

I had a 2017 early build that gave me alot if trouble. Early builds do this and I should have known better. Just traded it in on a 2019 Prox4.. exact same truck and colour. After 3 years of production all the kinks are worked out on the assemlby line. My 19 is so much better then the 17. No dash rattles..coolant smells and the heated seats auctually work great now. The GPs is updated and way better then the 17 and 18 system they show here. The 19 is a great truck and is very underated.

haha... ha... Just wait until a VVEL ladder fails.. Guess what.. Whole cylinder head replacement. The VK56 is a good engine but their Cylinder head design is trash with the VVEL crap. Just wait when yours fails... Going to hate life...7-8k for Cylinder head replacement, long block replacement is 10k JUST for the engine. Give it some time... It will fail...

Nissan titans are way over priced. $38,000 for a titan sv when i can just get a silverado high country with a 5.3 for around $30,000. My 2018 high country tows more gets better gas mileage and I can beat a titan in a drag race. Titans are JUNK!

We need less tech it's just more bull crap. Has any one wondered y 80s and 90s and very early 2000s trucks have gone so long is because truck manufactures weren't thinking about money then. Truck manufactures today noticed they can get more money the more your car failes older trucks could go 90,000-150,000 miles before problems today they go like 40,000-80,000 before problems.we need less tech a truck needs to be a truck with low cost and do truck things not to feel luxury and girly. Truck prices are out of control if u want luxury buy a car stop shoving your truck luxury crap down the car makers throats u don't need a touch screen radio u don't need a sun roof u don't need heated seats. All your doing is raising prices on the old school people who don't want any of it.

This is a great truck Despite the ability of the reviewers to communicate it

My last titan went to 450,000km Sold it a year ago and I miss it Definitely looking at the newer one shortly

Got mine for just under $40k. Love it.

Damn, I’m not a huge fan of the Titan. But oh boy does that exhaust sound amazing. Especially compared to the new American trucks which are muted compared to the older ones.

On the side note the bed lighting on the nissan is by far better the the other trucks and the sound system

There is plastic and there is cheap plastic. That truck is full of cheap looking plastic...even the door handles. Just cheap cheap cheap. That is not a truck. That is a vehicle called a truck.

You guys do an amazing job - one comment to make would be if you also spend time with the sound system. e.g. number of speakers, brand, sound quality, etc. et al. Thank you..

I had a 2005 Titan and it was bulletproof. Still was when I got my 2019. A lot of people like to talk crap on them, but everywhere I go people want to look at it and check it out. Bottom line is 100,000 mile warranty means something. The big 3 are selling more? Of course but I will take the better warranty and truck. My brother purchased a brand new 2018 Ford F150 Loaded. 3 weeks in whole truck smells like mildew from a moonroof leak. I listened to the haters all these years, and I will do it again.

These are ok but I'm not buying it.

I am in Love with the New Nissan Titan. It in my opinion is the best truck for the money... That being said, this truck was dated the moment it hit floors. This truck needs a duel Turbo, 10 speed Transmission, wider wheel flairs, larger info screen... You know.... THE WARRIOR....

10 more years....then they’ll refresh. What was sad, is that it looked dated a year or two after it’s release. They need to stay competitive!

They've renewed my interest in it. The looks are good. Price is a big factor and it is good but I have seen over-pricing stickers on Nissan's locally. I think I'll check out truecar on it. The nav system is no big deal. The audio was not tested.

Nissan should build a Titan version that is a Raptor competitor that has a version of the GTR V-6 twin turbo motor. :)

I own a platinum reserve 2017. Owned a platinum tundra 2014 before. No real difference in these two trucks. Both well built. Both have great engines. Titan is definitely a quicker truck.

Nissan parts bin switchgear? It's a Nissan pickup truck for krysake. Not an Infiniti QX80.

I would never know its offload worthy or sounds good because I would never past yellow. It's not a colour you paint a truck.

One engine option isn’t a bad thing. It means better reliability.

Off subject question..you guys from Europe..eastern Europe to be exact?

Does anyone have a herd of elk whining when filling up

I think with the long term reviews you should do the 30 day 60 day and 90 day mpg average just a suggestion

I’m sorry but no modern truck is worth $50k especially a half ton. Guess I won’t be buying a new truck, like ever!

Umm, that’s not the “nav system “ that’s Siri, the most useless app on the internet….

It's direct injection.....no thanks

You guys never talked about customer service and reliability of the vehicles

Nissan undefeated!!

They always shit on the import trucks, they’re 5 time better than the big three.

2019 has a new infotainment system.

Front end is ugly. Headlights are way to big

You guys didn’t have any recalls or TSB’s done?

Does it come with power slider rear window

6 months is not long term, it is very short term.

Nissan trucks, titan or frontier , always got crappy mileage it seems. WHY??

I’m getting mine this Saturday, was a frontier driver for years. I’m excited!
