Santa Monica, CA - October 9, 2003 - Edmunds.com, the Internet's premiere resource for consumer automotive information, today named the Nissan Titan the Edmunds.com Editors' Most Significant Vehicle of the Year for 2004.
This accolade is awarded to a vehicle that changes the rules of a given segment, creates a new niche or redefines an automaker's image.
"The Titan represents the first true import competitor to the full-size trucks from Ford, GM and Dodge — changing the rules for that segment," explains Karl Brauer, Editor In Chief of Edmunds.com. "Titan also represents Nissan's entry into the best-selling market segment on the planet, redefining its image as a full-line automaker."

Members of the public are invited to vote for their own vehicle choices at Edmunds.com each April.
