Full Review on the 2021 Nissan Titan Pro-4X: ua-cam.com/video/pO73GODIzFA/v-deo.html Full Review on the 2021 Toyota Tundra TRD Off-Road: ua-cam.com/video/DMpdSGQ-asI/v-deo.html
I bought my 2019 Titan Pro 4X last year at $37,000 after negotiation. INSANE value for the price. You get great bang for your buck with the Titan and the 100K warranty is a great incentive. Best vehicle Nissan has made in the past decade!
I own the 2021 Titan pro 4X and it is just a wonderful truck. It's far superior to any of the big 3 garbage out there. People get all caught up in the Ram and the giant screen, ok whatever. Get back to me when your out of warranty and that TV breaks. Titans ride awesome on road and off road and will be far more reliable then all trucks except maybe the Tundra but still I picked the Titan. Yes it's American made. Ram --Fiat owned Most Chevy Silverados made in mexico-- no thank you Fords-- their quality has become crap.
I had a 2004 Nissan Titan LE with 270,000 miles on it when I sold it in 2019. The main reason I sold it was the slight rust in the wheel flairs and storage box. The interior was top notch with the seating, leg room and amenities. The Titan is just as long lasting and tight as the Tundra.
I love my 2019 Titan XD. Great tow vehicle for our 27 foot bunk house. The Tundra is also a great truck. People should just drive what the like without bashing the other trucks to feel better about their choice. I'm glad some people realize there is life out there outside the big 3.
I would have never considered or thought the Nissan would compare to the Toyota, but my son and a friend have Titans that work and both have well over 200k and have been great. They have not reported on curb jumping at Starbucks, but both say the Nissan is tough. In the used market Nissan is a much cheaper truck to buy. Toyota is great, but your going to pay for the name. Great review Kevin keep em coming.
@@Rocket9944 Never owned or wanted to own a Nissan car or truck. The trucks I refer to are both used in construction and have been used very hard, look like what they have been through (hell), both well over 200k and still working, I think they are 2005 or 2006, one is very well serviced, and I know this because I raised the man that owns it, the other I am not as sure. 250k hard working in my opinion is pretty tough. I've never been a Nissan styling fan, just sharing what I have seen.
@@Rocket9944 in us, all cars have become junk with a few exceptions. Way too many people have gone truck/suv crazy. All research/development goes there. Never been a real fan of government intervention but I’m changing my mind.
I have had three Titans and they are such great trucks. Nissan just doesnt do a Greta just I'm advertising them. It funny, bc when you read the comments on videos, everyone seems to favor the Titans and compliments them a lot. If people would actually drive the trucks before buying them they would go with the Titan. Great in depth comparison and video!
Nissan Titan is far ahead of the current Tundra when it comes tech and towing (fully boxed frame) especially with the XD that comes stock with a gooseneck. Nice review and did you mention the 100k 5 year warranty bumper to bumper on the Nissan.
Owned a 21 tundra sr5 with the leather package. Currently own a 21 Titan Pro 4x baja storm. Besides the heavy steering at low speeds in the titan, there is not one thing I prefer about the tundra. I had a leather seat option on the tundra and they were by far the worst seats I have owned in a vehicle, hard as a rock. The ride quality was extremely harsh as well. The Titan zero gravity seats are great, the ride is behind Ram but pretty good, surprised about your jittery ride opinion as i take a turn on the way home every day with quick bumps and it stays much more planted than either my tundra or f150s did. I am hoping the titan holds up well, I know the Tundra 5.7 has cam tower leaks which are fairly costly to repair but is other wise pretty bullet proof. So far the nissan is my favorite full sized truck I have owned.
Last Fall 2020 I was evaluating the 2021 Ram Rebel, 2021 F-150 XLT, and the 2021 Nissan Titan Pro4x. After several test drives and scouring dealerships all over the SE I ended up going with the Titan and haven't regretted my decision once. The options for these trucks are just as good or better than some of the competitors and the price and warranty are just right. Love the V8 power over the Ecoboost too. I tried to compare it with a Tundra, but I couldn't find one equipped how I wanted and the interior is pretty dated.
I have a gas 2018 Titan XD SV. I’m continually impressed by the capabilities of this truck. I paid $37k for it new. This is a real value in the full size truck market. 5 year, 100,000 mile bumper warranty standard. That is tough to beat!
My 2004 nussan titan LE ran like a champ as a contractor I constantly put over a ton in it .370 K miles on original motor and tranny .... I Masonry and concrete Contractor ... poor truck what I did to it but took care of it best fluids and super gas ....finally tranny went .needs rebuild but man truck is tired... friends say I should write to nissan that they may want my truck to study it ??? I don't know but that truck is legendary and I'm heart broken .... great great truck ...
As a proud owner of a Tundra TRD Pro, I fall in love with my truck every day I drive it. It handles everything and anything I throw at it and asks for more. I tow with it, I go outdoors with it, go off-roading with it, and I drive it as a daily driver. No matter what anyone says, there is a clear reason why it has the highest resale value. A truck doesn’t get that title for no reason.
Popularity contest. That's why the resale is high. Not that it is a bad truck. Not at all but the Nissan is super underrated and not even a mention by most. Under the radar truck.
Bought an 08 Titan in 2010. Bought it because of a good price and didn’t care what it is until now, at 200k I haven’t had any repair at all which made me a Titan fan. Looking for into a newer Titan. Thanks for the review.
Just bought my 2021 Toyota Tundra TRD PRO Lunar Rock color last month for $72k and I love it. I know the prices are insane right now but wanted to buy the V8 before they discontinued it and it was a miracle that they had this truck in the dealer cause you can’t find them in any dealership now days!!!.
They are both Awesome trucks, but I would have to go with the Nissan Titan in a different color like a Deep Blue Pearl Metallic Nissan offers, not really feeling the Baja Storm color. But you can't go wrong with either one.
Mine is actually used off road, true conditions. Clay, mud, nasty rit’s, extreme conditions to say the least. I pick the Nissan Titan Pro 4X. Tundra as a back up.
Have owned the Titan for a year. All valid points. Shifter feels SO CHEAP it makes no sense as everything else feels solid. I will say no one touches on the black headliner. Wish more vehicles did that changes the entire feel of the interior and one of my favorite parts. Put 22k miles on it in one year and has been a great all around vehicle
1- I can barely afford to fill the one that's on there. 2- 5 1/2 ft is fine for me, sheets of plywood fit in with the tailgate down or you can let them stick up with the tailgate up if you don't have very many. Also parking would be a freaking nightmare if the bed was any longer. 3 agreed 👍
Nice Review I do like the Titan also. And as for the Michelin(LTX/AT2's 275/65/R18) tires on the Tundra they are very nice ....and for anyone living in Ohio I have a set that I took off my 2020 Tundra @7900 miles that I'm selling for a good price. Keep in mind these tires are $260 per tire now. They perform well in everything except thick mud....I just wanted larger tires on my Tundra. BTW there is a bad truck these days....The GM trucks are something I would not take a chance on with all the problems they've been having with their V-8's across the board....one even broke down with 72 miles on the odometer before needing major engine work....the guy didn't even get a day of driving out of it.
The bottom line is Toyota has not done enough updates on the current Tundra and it's very disappointing because it was a very capable truck in 2014 but yet they have not kept up with the Titan along with the other trucks in the marketplace and the new tundra that's coming out I think is going to turn away traditional Tundra buyers and more of them will go towards a Nissan Titan or Ford F-150 especially with the fact that they're no longer offering a V8 engine.
No that's pretty false after the Ram 1500 the 2021 Tundra is my next favorite truck to drive. Sorry if you didn't quite get that after watching this video I'll try to be more direct with my words next time.
Thanks for the video great job I went with the tundra pro I believe it’s more reliable tried and true Nissan second place and Toyotas much more conservative about the real numbers
“ In the real world” means specifically what ? I have a Titan midnight edition, very nice, very fast….happy with it all the way around ! It tows great. Did you mention the differential ratio’s ? Thank.
Own a 21 Tundta limited with the TRD off road package and love it! In 5 years the Tundra hold way better value. Don't get me wrong I like the Titan pro 4x but 63K vs 50K is a big difference especially that in one year the Tundra is worth much more. Should've conpared a trd pro the off road isn't comparable.
I had a Titan 5.6,it was a good truck but did give me a few issues over the 4 years I had it,I now have a Tundra and in my opinion the build quility on the Toyota is on another level in comparison. As far as power,the Titan seemed a little quicker of the line,but the Tundra feels stronger after about 20 mph or so, the Titan seemed to have a sportier feel in handling if that makes sense for a heavy truck. Fuel use is about the same for me. I liked the Titan while I had it,but after having both I do like my antique Tundra better,it just fits me better than any truck I have owned,and I have owned/own,Ford,Chevy, Dodge as well,and I have driven the new ram 5.7 e torque and a new trail boss 5.3,as well as a ford with the 5.0. All nice trucks,but I still find the Tundra holds its own against them even with its 14 year old design.
If I needed a bigger truck.. the Tundra for sure. I rode in a newer model like this and it was so comfortable and soaked up all the bumps. Too bad they are so dang expensive... like all modern trucks. My underpowered 1st gen Tacoma gets the job done for now lol
I actually had to make this choice earlier this year. I went with a 2021 tundra TRD pro double cab because of the reliability. The 5.6 L V8 that Nissan makes us had some pretty expensive problems in the past and I don’t believe they resolve them. With that brand new transmission who knows how reliable that will be. We know how well Nissan has made transmissions of the last 15 years.
The new 9 speed is from Mercedes Benz and it’s really reliable. Plus the 5.6 is a “bulletproof “ engine like all the trucks have their own version of that (T 5.7, F 5.0, C 5.3, R 5.7) The thing I don’t like about the tundra is the look hasn’t changed much at all in the last 15 years, especially the interior. It needs an update bad.
@@cutsautoam My experience with the 5.6L V8 long term is they eat catalytic converters which if not caught soon enough sends dust up into the pistons destroying the engine. These motors eat fuel pumps and the cooling system is super cheap and by 150,000 you will have a 100% chance of having to replace the entire cooling system (radiator). Drive train issues have been a big problem too. The new transmission I no nothing about.
@@SuperSnakePlissken I scoured the internet looking and can't seem to find anyone backing up your claims of issues with the Nissan 5.6 l V8, not saying you're wrong just saying you're definitely in a minority. Everything else I've seen shows it to be an extremely reliable engine. I'm not sold on the new 9-speed transmission either, It's made by Jatco which makes me a little nervous as Nissan's Achilles heel is those CVT transmissions that keep giving problems all made by Jatco. The seven speed transmission they were using in the Titans up until recently is made by Aisin which is shown to be an extremely dependable transmission. Honestly I just wish Nissan would cut off relations with Jatco and go strictly with Aisin transmissions like Toyota uses.. it would put them right up on par with Honda and Toyota in the Japanese vehicle market. And definitely would be worth the added expense.
@@jimeagle1155 Not sure how good your internet searching skills are but in less than 8.4 seconds I was able to find a nice list of them. Those issues are as follows. 1.) Exhaust manifold cracking. 2.) Timing Chain issues 3.) Valve Cover oil leaks 4.) Fuel pump problems That's your top 4 on the motor. The Nissan Armada/Titan are plagued with problems from brakes being the worst in the business to transmission issues and all kinds of issues with the cabin. If you cannot find those I encourage you to go on youtube and learn basic google searches. Good luck!
Doesn't really matter the essence is the same and no one is going to be able to get their hands on buying a TRD Pro let alone the one showed in this video.
Reliability is a huge plus if you love your hard-earned money well invested. Nissan wins in the outer shell design and speed, but Tundra will serve you for a longtime. Choice is clear, thanks for the comparison.
2021 pro4x loaded for me . There isn't even a back seat to speak of in the Toyota. N warranty isn't near as good nor is the price. Cldnt have been happier with my purchase. Did I mention it's the last of the 8cyl. Do ur research n see how twin turbo 6 cyl heat effects ur engines. Gd luck with that over time hope u put money away for major engine repairs.
Get the Tundra it’s a reason the Titan has that long warranty you will need it for sure without a doubt!! My Titan stays in the shop couldn’t stand it.. I’m buying a tundra soon
Yea 2021 is the way to go might be a little hard to find right now with inventory shortage but they seem to have some on leasehackr up in Pennsylvania just need to wait a bit to get one
This is why I have zero interest in spec sheets and numbers. Says nothing about the real world experience but today's "enthusiasts" are way too obsessed with the numbers
This is a great truck! I bought a '20 Nissan Titancrew cab SL 4X4 with only 7k on it. I'm not really a 4wheel guy but wanted a 4x just in case. The 5.6 is a beast that runs on premium sadly, but I'm retired so I don't mind putting the 91 in it. Mine is black on black with all the chrome in anerica on it,lol. I added a magnaflow dual exhaust and a chip that puts it at 500hp. I wanted something different than what most guys have, ford, gm, etc... It will leave just about anything at the light! An excellent choice for my retirement truck!
I don’t get the fascination with push button start…what happens when it fails? I’m sure there’s a fold out key for the Tundra, not sure about the Nissan
@@brianmunday8182 really? That's encouraging. Since they're on my mind, I've been spotting Titans on the road recently and have to say that they look very solid. I think they'll pick up some sales from current Tundra owners that are looking for a new truck.
Better off waiting for the redesign tundra over these two, these are little to dated for brand new price tags, maybe an older one thats cheaper and its basically the same thing besides a few minor things.
Idk if the traditional toyota buyer is going to be very happy with the new Tundra if what they say is true and there genuinely won't be a V8 moving forward. That could mean price increases for the older trucks regardless of pandemic since most Toyota people just want reliable reliable reliable. That's all I ever hear. TT V6 in LS 500 seems to have issues if that's the motor they will use in the new Tundra
Oh no sir we had no flooding here in our area. Idk about surrounding areas of Raleigh tho a couple miles out. How are things on your side is everything ok?
@@MeynMotorGroup Oh ok glad you had no flooding it made the news over here about the flooding in North Carolina with 60 dead and although you posted which meant you were ok didn't mean you might not have been impacted and was a bit worried about you all, and things are pretty good over here buddy we're starting to get some warmer weather after a pretty chilly winter this year.
@@Excalabur50 Oh yes there was some devastating flooding in the west on NC in a place called Asheville. That got pretty bad really feel for the people out there. And ok glad you guys are getting some nicer weather in Australia we are about to head into fall soon then winter can be a mixed bag sometimes its 70 and sometimes it can be -5 so we will see what the weather is like this year. Glad to hear you're well my friend.
@@MeynMotorGroup I thought you might ask. It gives me a general idea of the vehicles I'm interested in. Here's the problem--you say the Nissan feel "obtusely large" ( 4:38 ). Here's a video of a two guys with a totally different opinion. ua-cam.com/video/tnADvg-xtSs/v-deo.html --skip to 5:40.
Yea everyone and there mother is doing car reviews right now. And there's so much junk now on the internet. I agree with none of these people and I also don't agree with the spec sheet obsessed mainstream review outlets like car and driver and motor trend. It is for this reason that I started to do this car review thing on my own. Only thing I can tell you is watch car reviews on the vehicle that you currently own and whoever shares the same thoughts on logic as you on that car you should watch and trust them.
@@MeynMotorGroup As I said, I watch reviews based on products I'm interested in. Whether it be cars, smartphones, tools, etc., I watch them all with a grain of salt. Hey, did you know UA-cam has emojis now? Peace 😀✌
I literally have that same 2021 tundra ITS THE EXACT SAME ON EVERYTHING EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR AND I LOVE IT I ALWAYS DRIVE IT WITH TOW/HAUL BUTTON SK ITS FASTER HAHA
When this kind of truck go electric I would get one. That fuel economy more than the extra money expend is just wasteful for what I usually for: just flexin'
Honestly that titan looks way better than the tundra but I'm not a fan of the color.. it's not quite shit colored but somehow still reminds me of something I'd see in a bathroom.. 🤷🏾♂️
Oh man not a fan of the Baja Storm? People go crazy for that color but yea I know what you mean 😅😂 I def do think the Titan looks better especially in this Pro 4x trim and I like that little bar in the back even if it costs a grand
@@MeynMotorGroup yea man idk it gets worse the longer I look at it 🤣. On a side note, I'm getting the LS back today. Dealer said they had to drain the tank twice and drive it 50 miles to get it running back to normal.. I'm afraid to out Costco gas in it again.. but I need to know if it was really the cause! Lol
Yea that's pretty crazy man. I guess since the tech said it maybe consider not going back to Costco then. It's unfortunate but that just seems to be the situation. I know this is out there but I believe there was a company that checks fuel and oil qualities if you send them samples. Perhaps you could gather some fuel from Costco and other fuel stations? It's more trouble than what it's worth I realize that.
@@MeynMotorGroup I say tundra because I’ve grown up with tundras. I was brought home from the hospital when I was born in a 2000 tundra and drive a 2011 crewmax
That Tundra is a nice truck, but it has the worst interior in the class, the materials are far worse than the Titan, less soft touch, it is loaded with hard plastic, the transmission (6 speed) is laughable

Which would you choose if you didn’t own the tundra already?
I bought my 2019 Titan Pro 4X last year at $37,000 after negotiation. INSANE value for the price. You get great bang for your buck with the Titan and the 100K warranty is a great incentive. Best vehicle Nissan has made in the past decade!
Holy crap brand new? I mean even slightly used that's an unbelievable deal that's a 60k truck well done
@@MeynMotorGroup Oh the difference a year makes. Local dealers now won't negotiate a cent lower than 57k.
I own the 2021 Titan pro 4X and it is just a wonderful truck. It's far superior to any of the big 3 garbage out there. People get all caught up in the Ram and the giant screen, ok whatever. Get back to me when your out of warranty and that TV breaks.
Titans ride awesome on road and off road and will be far more reliable then all trucks except maybe the Tundra but still I picked the Titan.

Hey thanks for sharing this valuable information my friend I really appreciate it!
Not sure about Nissian trucks but the cars are junk, on my 5th Nissian, last two were junk. So many issues.

I really dont understand why heavy (still power) steering is such a pain point for people. Work out once a week, promise it wont be an issue lol

How about them Tundras now? Absolutely earned the title of garbage trucks.

I would do the Titan. best V8 ever
Yes
I have a 2006 Nissan Titan SE with 170, 000 plus miles and I still love driving it.
I ended up buying a Titan PR. I like this much better than the Tundra. Bette seat comfort front and rear. Great options too.
I have a 2021 Titan.. I tell all my friends how good it drives versus the other trucks...they never believe me, until they ride in it
Thank you for a well rounded comparison of both trucks. I appreciated your review.
Thanks for watching!
Just bought my 2021 Toyota Tundra TRD PRO Lunar Rock color last month for $72k and I love it. I know the prices are insane right now but wanted to buy the V8 before they discontinued it and it was a miracle that they had this truck in the dealer cause you can’t find them in any dealership now days!!!.
I like more the Titan, thanks Kevin.
Thanks!
I have a 2020 Titan SV, had a Ram, Silverado, and a tundra… I love the Titan and my best mpg was 24.2
The Tundra would be a perfect truck if it didn’t have an mpg of 200 feet per gallon.
I am a huge Toyota guy. Own three. But the 2022 tundra….makes me puke.
I have that 2022 tundra trd Sport ( wonderful but crappy v6 engine) And I am trading it for a Titan pro 4x 2024 Baja …
They are both Awesome trucks, but I would have to go with the Nissan Titan in a different color like a Deep Blue Pearl Metallic Nissan offers, not really feeling the Baja Storm color. But you can't go wrong with either one.
That sounds like a great color! And yea you're right can't really go wrong with either one
I would choose the Titan. It's a much better proposition.
I like the fact you can actually still get some discounts with the Titan and there's some availability with the Titan as well
@@MeynMotorGroup absolutely.
Titan hands down
Both are nice trucks, but Titan for me!
Yea they are def both nice. Titan was a great handling truck pretty quiet too
Titan all day
Mine is actually used off road, true conditions. Clay, mud, nasty rit’s, extreme conditions to say the least. I pick the Nissan Titan Pro 4X. Tundra as a back up.
A pessimist at best for this, I’d take that current Titan over that tundra all day!
I have a 2019 tundra and love it but I really like the titan
Have owned the Titan for a year. All valid points. Shifter feels SO CHEAP it makes no sense as everything else feels solid. I will say no one touches on the black headliner. Wish more vehicles did that changes the entire feel of the interior and one of my favorite parts. Put 22k miles on it in one year and has been a great all around vehicle
3 things the Titan needs:
Bigger fuel tank.
Long bed option.
Better camera resolution
1- I can barely afford to fill the one that's on there.
2- 5 1/2 ft is fine for me, sheets of plywood fit in with the tailgate down or you can let them stick up with the tailgate up if you don't have very many. Also parking would be a freaking nightmare if the bed was any longer.
3 agreed 👍
It's 26 gallons how big you want lol
Tundra needs a bigger fuel tank because the mpg is so awful.
Gotta admit, the Titan does look noicee

And as for the Michelin(LTX/AT2's 275/65/R18) tires on the Tundra they are very nice ....and for anyone living in Ohio I have a set that I took off my 2020 Tundra @7900 miles that I'm selling for a good price.

i love this guys reviews. he is honest, keeps it straight to the point, does not do unnecessary stupid tests. talks about important points.
Thank you my friend!
I’ll take the Nissan Titan if you don’t want it. Haha I love my Titan SV.
Great review. Honest and thorough, with valid and appreciated opinions. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed my friend!
Dang Kevin. Doing big things!
Haha 😅 trying to at least hopefully you find value with it
2 of them to be exact
Well explained and thank you
I'm sold on the Titan...it's better over all!
The bottom line is Toyota has not done enough updates on the current Tundra and it's very disappointing because it was a very capable truck in 2014 but yet they have not kept up with the Titan along with the other trucks in the marketplace and the new tundra that's coming out I think is going to turn away traditional Tundra buyers and more of them will go towards a Nissan Titan or Ford F-150 especially with the fact that they're no longer offering a V8 engine.
No that's pretty false after the Ram 1500 the 2021 Tundra is my next favorite truck to drive. Sorry if you didn't quite get that after watching this video I'll try to be more direct with my words next time.
Great overview and comparison Kevin, thank you.
Thanks for the video great job I went with the tundra pro I believe it’s more reliable tried and true Nissan second place and Toyotas much more conservative about the real numbers
“ In the real world” means specifically what ? I have a Titan midnight edition, very nice, very fast….happy with it all the way around ! It tows great. Did you mention the differential ratio’s ? Thank.
My choice Nissan titan XD
Own a 21 Tundta limited with the TRD off road package and love it! In 5 years the Tundra hold way better value. Don't get me wrong I like the Titan pro 4x but 63K vs 50K is a big difference especially that in one year the Tundra is worth much more. Should've conpared a trd pro the off road isn't comparable.
I had a Titan 5.6,it was a good truck but did give me a few issues over the 4 years I had it,I now have a Tundra and in my opinion the build quility on the Toyota is on another level in comparison. As far as power,the Titan seemed a little quicker of the line,but the Tundra feels stronger after about 20 mph or so, the Titan seemed to have a sportier feel in handling if that makes sense for a heavy truck. Fuel use is about the same for me. I liked the Titan while I had it,but after having both I do like my antique Tundra better,it just fits me better than any truck I have owned,and I have owned/own,Ford,Chevy, Dodge as well,and I have driven the new ram 5.7 e torque and a new trail boss 5.3,as well as a ford with the 5.0. All nice trucks,but I still find the Tundra holds its own against them even with its 14 year old design.
I kind a like the idea of jumping the side walk at Starbucks lol
Titan all the way!
If I needed a bigger truck.. the Tundra for sure. I rode in a newer model like this and it was so comfortable and soaked up all the bumps.
Too bad they are so dang expensive... like all modern trucks. My underpowered 1st gen Tacoma gets the job done for now lol
Yea I do really like driving the Tundra but for sure Tacoma certainly get the job done!
I actually had to make this choice earlier this year. I went with a 2021 tundra TRD pro double cab because of the reliability. The 5.6 L V8 that Nissan makes us had some pretty expensive problems in the past and I don’t believe they resolve them. With that brand new transmission who knows how reliable that will be. We know how well Nissan has made transmissions of the last 15 years.
The new 9 speed is from Mercedes Benz and it’s really reliable. Plus the 5.6 is a “bulletproof “ engine like all the trucks have their own version of that (T 5.7, F 5.0, C 5.3, R 5.7)
The thing I don’t like about the tundra is the look hasn’t changed much at all in the last 15 years, especially the interior. It needs an update bad.
@@cutsautoam My experience with the 5.6L V8 long term is they eat catalytic converters which if not caught soon enough sends dust up into the pistons destroying the engine. These motors eat fuel pumps and the cooling system is super cheap and by 150,000 you will have a 100% chance of having to replace the entire cooling system (radiator).
Drive train issues have been a big problem too. The new transmission I no nothing about.
@@SuperSnakePlissken I scoured the internet looking and can't seem to find anyone backing up your claims of issues with the Nissan 5.6 l V8, not saying you're wrong just saying you're definitely in a minority. Everything else I've seen shows it to be an extremely reliable engine.
I'm not sold on the new 9-speed transmission either, It's made by Jatco which makes me a little nervous as Nissan's Achilles heel is those CVT transmissions that keep giving problems all made by Jatco. The seven speed transmission they were using in the Titans up until recently is made by Aisin which is shown to be an extremely dependable transmission.
Honestly I just wish Nissan would cut off relations with Jatco and go strictly with Aisin transmissions like Toyota uses.. it would put them right up on par with Honda and Toyota in the Japanese vehicle market. And definitely would be worth the added expense.
@@jimeagle1155 Not sure how good your internet searching skills are but in less than 8.4 seconds I was able to find a nice list of them. Those issues are as follows.
1.) Exhaust manifold cracking.
2.) Timing Chain issues
3.) Valve Cover oil leaks
4.) Fuel pump problems
That's your top 4 on the motor.
The Nissan Armada/Titan are plagued with problems from brakes being the worst in the business to transmission issues and all kinds of issues with the cabin.
If you cannot find those I encourage you to go on youtube and learn basic google searches. Good luck!
11:40 yup it is the patrol, pretty darn relaible as its an icon around here in the middle east
Darn the titan is slept on
It really is but I think with the current new car market, more people will be forced to buy Titans
@@MeynMotorGroup true there are better options out there, cough cough ram 1500
Yea Ram is def the best truck I've driven no doubt
@@MeynMotorGroup
Ive owned 3 Rams and everyone of them had big issues, 2 F150 and they're garbage ..
Titan for me.
21 tundra is the last year before they butchered the front end😭
Yea that new design won't be for everyone
That new Tundra grille triggers my gag reflex.
Should have been a comparison between the Tundra TRD Pro and this Titan.
Doesn't really matter the essence is the same and no one is going to be able to get their hands on buying a TRD Pro let alone the one showed in this video.
Not to mention that price wise this is a spot on comparison.
Ill go for the tundra 💪💪
With regular fuel, will mpg be similar to that of the Tundra?
Neither one buttery smooth 😆. I'll choose the Toyota. Still waiting for a Lexus truck. Good review/comparison.
Thanks!
19 P4X I average 15.9 with the 7spd, best mileage babying it was 19.5... running terra grappler g2s...
Buy to keep or sell later - Tundra.
Reliability is a huge plus if you love your hard-earned money well invested. Nissan wins in the outer shell design and speed, but Tundra will serve you for a longtime. Choice is clear, thanks for the comparison.
Thanks for watching!
You are correct, can't beat that titan warranty.
2021 pro4x loaded for me . There isn't even a back seat to speak of in the Toyota. N warranty isn't near as good nor is the price. Cldnt have been happier with my purchase. Did I mention it's the last of the 8cyl. Do ur research n see how twin turbo 6 cyl heat effects ur engines. Gd luck with that over time hope u put money away for major engine repairs.
Back when the tundra was good looking. I would take the Nissan in 2023 no doubt.
I like the look of the Titan more, chrome dont get you home.
Let’s keep it real now to Tony’s not even broken in at 100,000 miles
Give me the Titan.
Get the Tundra it’s a reason the Titan has that long warranty you will need it for sure without a doubt!! My Titan stays in the shop couldn’t stand it.. I’m buying a tundra soon
What ends up going wrong with your Titan?
@@MeynMotorGroup Both leaf springs/AC/ motor for the power seats/ that’s just what I can remember
Gotcha sorry to hear that, are you getting the new 2022 Tundra or the current 2021?
@@MeynMotorGroup 2021 don’t want the new one probably is going to have issues V8 for me
Yea 2021 is the way to go might be a little hard to find right now with inventory shortage but they seem to have some on leasehackr up in Pennsylvania just need to wait a bit to get one
As far as acceleration quick search sites the tundra 0-60 is 6.4 seconds Titan is 7.3 seconds.
This is why I have zero interest in spec sheets and numbers. Says nothing about the real world experience but today's "enthusiasts" are way too obsessed with the numbers
This is a great truck! I bought a '20 Nissan Titancrew cab SL 4X4 with only 7k on it. I'm not really a 4wheel guy but wanted a 4x just in case. The 5.6 is a beast that runs on premium sadly, but I'm retired so I don't mind putting the 91 in it. Mine is black on black with all the chrome in anerica on it,lol. I added a magnaflow dual exhaust and a chip that puts it at 500hp. I wanted something different than what most guys have, ford, gm, etc... It will leave just about anything at the light! An excellent choice for my retirement truck!
They had to push start in 2020 that’s what I love about my tundra short sweet and to the simple and I can shut all the technology off
Too bad they cancel Titan in Canada. Nissan should have let it stay because of how consumers were disappointed with the new gen tundra.
Weird my 2020 pro both windows go up one touch and down in the back window rolls down as well
I don’t get the fascination with push button start…what happens when it fails? I’m sure there’s a fold out key for the Tundra, not sure about the Nissan
Nissan has a key in the fob that you can take out
Tundra of all time
Tundra does offer BSM on 1794s and up
The Titan would have to have a larger gas tank for me to consider it. 26 gallons is too small.
You will get over 500 miles on a tank of gas in the Titan (hope that helps)
@@brianmunday8182 really? That's encouraging. Since they're on my mind, I've been spotting Titans on the road recently and have to say that they look very solid. I think they'll pick up some sales from current Tundra owners that are looking for a new truck.
@@Vox-Populi yep, that is what I am getting currently with a mix of city and hiway driving ..mostly hiway , 2020 with 15000 miles
A TRD Pro should’ve been used in this video. You should compare apples to apples.
TRD pro would probably compare to the titan platinum reserve since the pro 4x is the off road version
epic trucks!
Better off waiting for the redesign tundra over these two, these are little to dated for brand new price tags, maybe an older one thats cheaper and its basically the same thing besides a few minor things.
Idk if the traditional toyota buyer is going to be very happy with the new Tundra if what they say is true and there genuinely won't be a V8 moving forward. That could mean price increases for the older trucks regardless of pandemic since most Toyota people just want reliable reliable reliable. That's all I ever hear. TT V6 in LS 500 seems to have issues if that's the motor they will use in the new Tundra
The only thing I hate about Titan is their use of that piano black plastic. That thing is very scratch prone and smudges very easily.
Yea my friend very true
I'd rather have the tow mirrors over the Baja bars.
Weird....My Tundra windows go up and down with 1 touch. 2020 TRD PRO.
Hey Kevin, hope you're ok after the flooding that happened over there?
Oh no sir we had no flooding here in our area. Idk about surrounding areas of Raleigh tho a couple miles out. How are things on your side is everything ok?
@@MeynMotorGroup Oh ok glad you had no flooding it made the news over here about the flooding in North Carolina with 60 dead and although you posted which meant you were ok didn't mean you might not have been impacted and was a bit worried about you all, and things are pretty good over here buddy we're starting to get some warmer weather after a pretty chilly winter this year.
@@Excalabur50 Oh yes there was some devastating flooding in the west on NC in a place called Asheville. That got pretty bad really feel for the people out there. And ok glad you guys are getting some nicer weather in Australia we are about to head into fall soon then winter can be a mixed bag sometimes its 70 and sometimes it can be -5 so we will see what the weather is like this year. Glad to hear you're well my friend.
The one thing about car reviews on YT is everybody has there own opinion and you can't trust any of them.
Then why do you watch them?
@@MeynMotorGroup I thought you might ask. It gives me a general idea of the vehicles I'm interested in. Here's the problem--you say the Nissan feel "obtusely large" ( 4:38 ). Here's a video of a two guys with a totally different opinion. ua-cam.com/video/tnADvg-xtSs/v-deo.html --skip to 5:40.
Yea everyone and there mother is doing car reviews right now. And there's so much junk now on the internet. I agree with none of these people and I also don't agree with the spec sheet obsessed mainstream review outlets like car and driver and motor trend. It is for this reason that I started to do this car review thing on my own.
Only thing I can tell you is watch car reviews on the vehicle that you currently own and whoever shares the same thoughts on logic as you on that car you should watch and trust them.
@@MeynMotorGroup As I said, I watch reviews based on products I'm interested in. Whether it be cars, smartphones, tools, etc., I watch them all with a grain of salt. Hey, did you know UA-cam has emojis now? Peace 😀✌
Light steering in dangerous. It is not desirable. Toyota costs too much. They all do but Toyota tax needs repealing.
I literally have that same 2021 tundra ITS THE EXACT SAME ON EVERYTHING EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR AND I LOVE IT I ALWAYS DRIVE IT WITH TOW/HAUL BUTTON SK ITS FASTER HAHA
When this kind of truck go electric I would get one. That fuel economy more than the extra money expend is just wasteful for what I usually for: just flexin'
I just got the 2021 F 150 hybrid as a press car review coming soon
Personally myself I do not like the 2022 tundra I think they ruined it I’m not a fan of Highbrid
Review a Nissan Armada if you haven't done so!
I did a 2020 Armada review but nobody saw it
@@MeynMotorGroup checking it out bruh rn
Honestly that titan looks way better than the tundra but I'm not a fan of the color.. it's not quite shit colored but somehow still reminds me of something I'd see in a bathroom.. 🤷🏾♂️
Oh man not a fan of the Baja Storm? People go crazy for that color but yea I know what you mean 😅😂 I def do think the Titan looks better especially in this Pro 4x trim and I like that little bar in the back even if it costs a grand
@@MeynMotorGroup yea man idk it gets worse the longer I look at it 🤣. On a side note, I'm getting the LS back today. Dealer said they had to drain the tank twice and drive it 50 miles to get it running back to normal.. I'm afraid to out Costco gas in it again.. but I need to know if it was really the cause! Lol
Yea that's pretty crazy man. I guess since the tech said it maybe consider not going back to Costco then. It's unfortunate but that just seems to be the situation.
I know this is out there but I believe there was a company that checks fuel and oil qualities if you send them samples.
Perhaps you could gather some fuel from Costco and other fuel stations? It's more trouble than what it's worth I realize that.
16:12 13.6mpg over 56.8miles, not quite as close to 15mpg I was hearing, maybe he was getting on it.
Car was idling for the b roll I was taking
Toyota Titan!
😂
Tundra 100%
I understand
@@MeynMotorGroup I say tundra because I’ve grown up with tundras. I was brought home from the hospital when I was born in a 2000 tundra and drive a 2011 crewmax
That Tundra is a nice truck, but it has the worst interior in the class, the materials are far worse than the Titan, less soft touch, it is loaded with hard plastic, the transmission (6 speed) is laughable
Hilux 2.0 vs Frontier 2.0
