I am A retired Quality Engineer and have owned a 2011 Ram (Cummins) Mega Cab Laramie and a Silverado (Duramax) LTZ and the Titan XD. The Titan XD is hands down has a better ride quality, Handles better, and actually tows by 32 foot Keystone easily. The Cummins diesel is no joke. On the Highway this thing moves with fuel mileage for the first 2200 miles at 18 Hwy and 15 City. The interior comfort on the SL is comparable to the LTZ. Driving this truck is easy and you do not have to fight the wheel like the chevy and ram. The factory goose neck setup is great, The Electrical connector in the bed can run an electric impact wrench, The wheel to wheel lit running boards allow easy entry for me and the wife who complained about the Chevy and Ram. The two issues that can be improved are the Fuel tank size and adding Passenger Lumbar control. I can add a auxiliary tank and a tuner later on. The dealership has been great with a couple of small issues. Overall this truck is exactly what I needed. WIth the Ram Recalls and the Chevrolet vibration issues Titan XD is an excellent option. I did drive a Tundra Platinum and liked the truck but the leather seats were just a tad bit (Not Much) softer than the seats Fred Flintstone had in his car.

This is a really great truck. Pulls my 25 ft. trailer with ease, good fuel economy, roomy interior, quiet, and the wife loves it. (most important thing). First Titan was gas powered. This is my first Diesel. I am very surprised at the performance. This beast pulls like a mule. Update. It's now been 7000 miles and I can't say any thing bad about this truck. The more I drive it the more I like it. Well they asked me to update. We are at 10,000 miles. Still love the truck. I can't think of anything negative to say. I do a little remodeling on the side and just yesterday I loaded 25 sheets of 1/2" sheetrock and 8 boxes of mud. The truck didn't even know it was there. 19000 mile update. So far so good. Still runs great. The only negative thing I can say is the factory tires ( General ) are not what I would call a very good tire. Horrible in the snow and anything that resemble wet. Other that that, I still love my truck. I guess they want me to update again. 30,000 miles now, no problems, changed tires, installed cold air intake, new canopy. Cold air intake seems to be working well. Upped the performance and increase fuel economy. Still love my truck. Update #3. Nothing different. She's still running great. No issues.Update #4 A few issues. Turbo dump valve went bad, had it replaced. Regen is doing a couple of weird things but overall still running fine. Update #5. Turbo dump valve problem turned out to be a carbon buildup on the actuator shaft between the low and high pressure control valve. It seems to have been a seal issue. Nissan stepped up and replace the low pressure turbo, the controller all for free. The Truck is out of warranty because of years owned but I was impressed by not only the dealer but the Nissan Corporation. This would've been a $5,000 job but again, it was done for free. This has been the only major problem. I believe the emissions systems on these trucks will be the issue in future years.

What I love most about the truck, is that you get the fuel economy of a diesel in a truck that rides as soft as a 1/2 ton truck. It tows a modest camper very well, is very stable on the road, good in the snow. It is also heavier than competitor's 1 ton trucks, so it handles in a cross wind with a camper very well. Dealerships are still learning how to handle the diesel engines. It has been a routine occurrence where the dealership has not had the diesel tech available, or a lift that could handle the truck. Be prepared for high dealership services costs, ~$350 to $600 every 10,000 miles. I will not be going to dealerships once the warranty expires. It has plenty of power, but not as much as a 3/4 or 1 ton truck. The diesel is most advantageous on the highway and towing. Having the engine's maximum torque output at 1,800 RPM makes a big difference during typical driving and towing.

Interior is nice more modern then any truck out there on top of very spacious !!! The technology is very up to date with there safety futures. on top of luxury interior and 12 speakers wit 1 sub its great sound!! the Diesel engine you can not hear it at all inside the car or driving after 40 MPH. the MPG i get so far is 21-25 highway on top diesel being cheaper then GAS. the Turbo boost is great!!! ever time i get to my destination it gives me my total of my MPG and the list of previous MPG Results it will compare it. Theres a LOT of awesome stuff you could do with the TRUCK!! one i like is it has Eye bird view and Parking Assit has sensors 360 around the car. Making this shorter I wont go back to Chevy or Dodge.

I purchased a new 2017 Titan XD diesel, SV with comfort package about 3 months ago and have experianced non of the negative stuff folks have posted on here. I learned in marketing that the majority don't say anything if they are happy with their purchase and the Majority who are unhappy will say something. My truck pulls and drives like a dream. Everything works. Not one complaint here. I would recommend this truck anyone wanting more power in a full size truck but also wants great fuel economy. On the hwy I've avg as high as 24 mpg but going a seady 65 mph. Step it up to 80 mph and I'm getting 19 mpg. My Toyota Tacoma with it's 6 banger never got over 19 mpg no matter what and avg 15 to 16. I love the size of this thing and is great on a long road trip. I'd like a bigger tank that 26 gals but that will get you 500 + miles. When you tow 8000 lbs you'll drop to 15 mpg or so. My Tacoma would tow 2000 lbs and get 10 or 11 mpg. Simply an awesome truck. Love that Cummins. They sound so sweet and love to be driven hard. The big three better take notice. Nissan has sold all years of these things out although be it in limited numbers. However, They never advertised for this truck. I've never even seen one commercial. If you when by commercials you'd think the only full size trucks out there are Ford, Chevy and Ram.
