The Titan's 9.9" is not that far off from the Silverado's 10.6" height. If you're worried about ground clearance, an aftermarket lift kit will fix that issue. Problem solved. As for the side steps, most people who are serious about off-roading, will take them off. However, no one in their right mind is going to take a heavy a** , full-size crew cab truck onto serious off-roading trails.
TFL truck tooK the Pro4x and trailboss on a pretty tough trail and where the trailboss struggled the Titan tackled with ease despite the more aggressive tires on the Trailboss.
I just bought a 2020 pro 4X fully loaded and I was also comparing it against the trail boss. After spending a few hours with each (the Titan second) there was really no comparison. The interior, the electronics, the engine, the warranty. I paid $49,871 before TTL. And Nissan surprised me with 0% interest for 72 months. I am blown away. It’s a special truck and all my neighbors have come over to see it. It gets a lot of attention. I got the grey color because I liked the way all the black trim, lights and graphics looked.
did you get the moonroof too? ?
How long did you have to haggle to get this price? I’ve heard of people paying this much or even less OTD
@@michalp2362 there are less expensive pro 4X for instance you can get it with cloth, no memory functions, no heated or cooled seats. But mine is fully loaded with everything accept the sunroof. I could have gotten it for $2k less actually but then I would have given up the 0% interest. Mine also has the Titan side steps, the pro 4X mud flaps, proximity lighting, rubber and cloth floor mats, full ceramic tint, Pretty much everything.
I bought my 2021 pro 4x in gun metallic color for $47k. I did a lot of research and ended up picking the Nissan too!
I love my 2015 Titan pro-4x. It’s everything I need for a great price. Built here in the USA too.
wtf does that even matter? The profits go back to Japan so....
@@twintriode because it employs American workers to build it. Also the profits go to the shareholders, many of whom are American.
@@emmatoocold You rationalize it anyway you want.
I’m a pretty loyal Nissan owner. I’m in the hunt for a Titan now. I really think they are great looking trucks.
Honestly, I like nissan trucks better than chevy. Btw, 200 closer to 70k!!!
Just bought my '20 pro-4x last weekend. Love it and i actually did buy it over the 6.2l trail boss!
I hope you enjoy many years. Congratulations on your new ride 💚👍.
What made you choose the Nissan over Ford Chevy Toyota? I ask because I really like this truck but don't know if it can last as long as say the Tundra
@@bcw686 Well I've owned two mid 90's Nissan hardbodies that were near indestructible. But i have a buddy who owns an 08 titan with over 225k miles and has had zero issues with it. So i trust Nissan's truck reliability record over the last 30 yrs. Also what made me go with the '20 titan was all of the standard safety equipment over the other brands. The Toyota's are great but i feel the value for what you get compared to the Nissan just didn't match. Fords/Chevy interior felt out dated. The rams were around $70k loaded up with the really really nice interiors but i'm happy to have saved $15k and get the titan with a slightly less luxurious interior. So overall i wanted reliability, good looks, comfortable interior, off road capability, towing confidence, and a price tag under $55k which the titan checked all of those boxes perfectly.
@@ogduckett I really like the 2020 Titan look, and that engine sounds so smooth. Glad you like it and if those trucks last hundreds of thousands of miles then I am sold
@@bcw686 check around the Nissan Titan forums and nissan titan groups on facebook, you'll see plenty of them over 200k with some in the 300k-400k range. Good luck with the truck shopping you'll absolutely love the Titan!
I did not know Forrest did regular reviews lol. I always thought he only did shorts and reels lol. Great review! I’m the market for this.
Picked up our fully loaded to the brim pro 4x , for 6k off msrp(no other manufacturer dealers were offering any discounts) we got the best warranty on the market, and we freaking love it. The headlights on the titan are absolutely insane at night. Low beams are so bright and have a clean cutoff line, and the high beams are like the sun ignites.
Such an under appreciated truck
Love Nissan trucks and vehicles!!! Very reliable rides. Would love a new pro4x
Great review, covering both day and night (headlights and cargo lights) and +100 life points for the bible in the rear seat holder. keep up the good work, Glad Nissan forgave you for knocking off a chunk of the side step, good to know as the Titan is one of my man picks, but I probably wont be doing a lot of off-roading.
Never heard of you but I'm glad I came across this... Dude you legit. Great car review!
I bought a 2020 Pro 4x and honestly never thought I would buy a Nissan truck. I have owned nothing but Chevy's and Fords but I love this truck.
First time viewer! Nice review! Yup, I agree with you on adding another 1-2 inch lift from factory. Those side-steps don't help either! Maybe dedicated "rock rails" would be a better solution. Overall, this is a GREAT Truck! Love how they are competing against all the GM/Ford bloated and over styled offerings. Less expensive and NO TURBOS!! YES!!! Great job Nissan!
I originally wanted an F150 or a Tundra. After looking into the new Titans now I want one.
SO…
It is 2023 - and I’m just now seeing this video.
I will start off by saying that I just bought a 2023 Titan Pro 4X in Baja Storm. …which I’m very happy with!
I won’t bore you with the 2 years of frustration I endured before finally getting this gorgeous Pro 4X!
Suffice it to say, now my Titan Pro 4X wins out over the following that I looked at first:
- 2021 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro in Lunar Rock
- 2022 GMC Sierra AT4
- 2022 & 2023 Chevy Trail Boss
And I must say that many of the articles comparing the Titan Pro 4X to the other full size trucks leave out the main criteria. …That being: The Nissan Titan Pro 4X is absolutely the most handsome truck!! …especially the Baja Storm!
Also… I don’t care about the fact that the towing and payload thresholds are slightly less than other trucks.
Lastly, for me, the listed price of the Pro 4X was 63k - while the Trail Boss that I ordered (TWICE & didn’t get) was just over 70k. And I actually ended up getting the Pro 4X for 59k!!
For these reasons and more, I’m very happy with my Pro 4X.
I've always liked Titans but really love the 2020 want this truck so bad. I saw one earlier this morning in red it was a PRO-4x was parked at service station knew was 2020 was identical as this one if buy a Titan either get this trim or Platinum Reserve just can't stop thinking about this truck. I am a Nissan king fan either Titan or a Sentra went buy back buying sedans.
My 2019 interior is exactly the same. It has a little trim in brushed aluminum and I think it looks great the 2020 is mostly black. And mine is trimmed in white stitching which matches the exterior. Sure the gps and the dash info screen are better. Theres all kinds of guys that have pounded this offroad with the running boards. Great reviews from everybody that off roads it. Not sure about you getting fatigued driving this in a parkinglot. Ive never had any issues...better hit the gym a little more.😉
Very comprehensive on the interior thank you. We all have lost footage and pictures.
Not completely redesigned! Just a significant refresh!
great review. I think this truck is crazy under rated as a used option. They dont really hold their value, so you can pick up a 3-4 year old one for about $25K
Titans hold their value more so than a sh**ty Chevy made by Government Motors. Lol
Travelin' Ted agreed. I want to pick up one of these pro 4 in a couple years
I just traded in my 2017 Titan Sv. I got $24,600 on trade for a 2020 pro4x. I originally paid $30,010 just over 3 years ago. I was pretty surprised. But the new 2020 titans are much more expensive than they were back in 2017 I’m guessing because of all the new tech.
@@Viewsfromhere I just traded my 17 SV 4x4 for the 21 P4X. They gave me 30k trade in, low (25k) miles on it though.
I have a 2023, it’s fantastic.
I own this truck and everything he said about this truck is 100% correct. Everything. I just can’t believe he broke the side step, I was smiling until I saw that Lol
Just an fyi, the ground clearance you provided is at the rear axle. The ground clearance at the skid plates is actually 10.6. Those running boards aren't standard so anyone looking to actually take this to the trails wouldn't get them and that would give you full use of the ground clearance.
1/2 ton truck pricing has gotten almost out of reach nowadays. The only real things I look for is reliability, price, and mpg. Anytime s full size can get over 20 mpg, I'm happy. Biggest question to me is this. Will it get to 300k miles without too many problems? Answer: Titan, Tundra. I've seen the million mile Tundra and Frontier with original engine. That's quality!
Can one say this about the big three GM, Ford, Ram? Anybody?
Good review. Never liked Nissan trucks. I changed my mine. Like the new Titan and really like the new 2022 Frontier coming this summer.
One of the biggest problems with the "Trail Boss" is its sophomoric name. Really, only a third-grader could think this name is a good idea.
Haha I have to agree with you there.
Well people with 3rd grade iqs buy chevy sooo
Trying to appeal to thier child like customers
I've looked at the Trail Boss, interior so old looking and the truck overall bigger, dont like the massive brick looking front end. Titan wins it for me. Overall I think the high price of trucks is shocking. I remember the days when you could get a good truck for $20k-$30k. Not anymore. Even used trucks are overpriced. I also looked at the Frontier which is stellar, but I wanted the bigger engine for pulling for a little more money. Titan really has more value. Thanks for the great review.
Just stay àway from Chevy period they’er going down hill with the quality control they're not the same anymore I used to love them, probably they're HD truçks are the only reliable thing they got now
The Titan is a beast !
Great review and attention to details keep up the awesome work I’m shopping for this exact truck
I love the look of this truck, the only thing that really gives me pause, is the heavy steering. I'm a city slicker like most, so getting a bicep workout every time I park doesn't sound super appealing.
DevilDog 53 that heavy steering is one of the things I love about my 2013 Nissan Armada!
DevilDog 53 no doubt! The steering is great for long road trips as it tremendously reduces fatigue.
I heard about this too, and I don’t even notice it. My 19 Durango RT had “heavy” steering, and this feels normal to me.
Awesome review! Thank you!
1. Does it have telescopic steering?
2. How is the turning radius on the titan? Excellent video appreciate the 411 and thank you🙏🏼👍🏼💪🏼
I have 2020 titan pro 4x I love
Great job on the review
Awesome review!
really like the looks of the new titans and thinking about getting one next year when my lease is up on my silverado like the video have you done one on the toyota tundra and if so witch one you like better
Good review! Like that titan.
This is good..thank for the review..
My dream truck 💯
Mine too.
Ive owned 3 now 2 gas and 1 diesel,best trucks ive owned
I just bought the pro 4x xd model... Love it, only downfall is 12 mpg... But its a truck sooo...
You bought a brand new Titan and only get 12mpg with the 9 speed trans ? Or is it a older one?
@@a.k.vollmer5200 brand new, 2020, i was a bit aggressive on the petal at first.... Im getting about 14 now
I'm getting 18mpgs
@@timbrown6278 12 mpg? That's driving like you are stealing it every day. I don't blame you, that engine is fun to push.
@@Pccpy not every day, anymore, but i live in the mountains so there's almost no such thing as a flat road
No comparison. The titan has a real locking diff and 100 warranty.
Good review. Nissan could do better by adding powered running boards, that fold against the undercarriage.
Why does everyone have to redline rev these brand new engines…
Where at in Tennessee are you?
Automatic step sides would be the way to go.
I know I'm late to the party but can you or someone push the limits on the tow capacity? I have yet to see anyone tow around 7500 ish pounds. I'd like to get this and tow a camper but I'm unsure how capable it is, without relying on the claimed 9200lbs towing capacity sticker.
If want towing - get the XD version. It is beyond paper specs - sturdy towing with reinforced frame, longer wheelbase and bigger brakes. I think for towing boat or a car, Titan will do well but when towing a trailer, then XD is the truck.
Get the XD. The heavier weight of the truck makes it more stable towing than any half ton ever could be. I have a 16 xd platinum reserve diesel and towing my heavy trailer the difference between it and the tundra and f150 ive towed it with is night and day, especially in crosswinds or going down a 2 lane road with an 18 wheeler coming from the other direction, or just passing an 18 wheeler on the interstate. Towing is more than just power. The XD tows and feels like a 3/3 ton but rides better than a 3/4 ton. It really is a great truck if you tow 9n the heavier side but don't want a rough riding 3/4 ton. And it has a gooseneck from the factory. And the 100,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty doesn't hurt either, especially when the competition only offers 3 hr 36,000.
@@lukman8400 Makes sense but I don't plan on towing more than 6k. Also, I just bought the pro 4x a week ago so I better deal with it, now 🤣
I now understand what you meant earlier about the dashboard of the Trail Boss
Especially compared with this.
The Nissan's engine on the other hand...🤔
I don't think I ever will see a Titan in the Netherlands or Europa.
The few trucks driving here are mainly Tundra's and (Dodge) Ram's 1500 and s little bunch of F-150's
Great video again 👍🏽
Owned a Titan years ago and loved it but they have God awful MPGs and you'd think they'd do something about it.
I’m averaging 19 mpg with mixed driving. I don’t goose it though.
@@matthewm3912
I bought a 2021 Nissan Titan Pro4x and getting about the same mpg as you.
Why do American market cars always have to have random, meaningless badges and labels plastered all over them? Very unnecessary
What do you mean, TRAIL BOSS? If you were a real PRO 4X driver you'd think these badges and labels are PLATINUM. All the real TRD PROs agree, it's time to be a REBEL and buy a RAPTOR.
The trailboss looks nicer. I like the Titan interior but to bad the cameras are bad quality and no lane keep assist just warning.
No real truck owner would want all of that useless tech gadgets. I don't need a warning buzzer to keep me in my lane. BTW, the Silverado looks like s**t.
@@Sig721Tau i agree, if you need lane assist then its because you're distracted or nothing paying attention. Ive driven vehicles with all of those features and honestly it makes you a less attentive driver because you're relying on all the electronics. Don't get me wrong, it was cool that the vehicle would basically drive itself 9n the highway but I could see myself getting too comfortable with that lane keep and active cruise control.
Nissan better warranty also
It probably IS better, but it definitely doesn't look better. That grille is horrific.
Opinion
The front end of the current Chevy is the worst front end ever designed, the 2017 Chevy looks much nicer, as far as the Nissan Titan that front end is by far better looking!
Chevy front end but tundra took that spot
Trail boss all the way no real truck guys drive a Nissan 😝
A real truck guy uses the truck based on needs and not brand loyalty.
What qualifies you as a real truck guy? This should be interesting
@@dycorrado A guy name Phillip...not Phil.😄
My Titan has been the best truck I have ever owned. Chevys have problems. Not built as well.
Whaat??? Silverado still has the same interior from the 90s😂😂 titan beats the trailboss in every way. Better suspension bettet looks better interiors and most important better trans and engine!!! 🤡🤡🤡
Them side steps are bade of harden aluminum. Mine broke too in a truck stop where there were pretty good size holes.
They are not made of steel.
