Ok but not great

I bought a new 2012 Nissan Titan Pro-4x and have been moderately satisfied with it. The fit and finish of the interior is acceptable but there is a lot of hard plastic used. The infotainment system is hot garbage, why install Bluetooth if it will not let you play music through it? The fuel mileage is atrocious (13 mpg at 75 mph without a tow load). The engine gives decent acceleration but is severely lacking in towing capability. I occasionally tow a 6k travel trailer (truck is rated to 9200lbs) and the truck does ok on straight even roads but hills will slow the truck down considerably (from 65 mph down to 25 mph with the pedal to the medal). Anyway, at 7yrs old with only 55k miles on it, I just spent $1300 replacing a bad serpentine belt, hydraulic tensioner, all of the belt pulleys, an alternator and power steering pump. A vehicle with that kind of low mileage should not be experiencing those kinds of failures. Not to mention the 5-6 times the truck has been In the shop because of a leaking heater coil (oily film on the inside of the windshield). The truck is an "ok" vehicle if you don't want to tow with it or drive on the interstate much (14mpg city, 13mpg highway ?!?). Next time I'll get a 3/4 or 1 ton diesel, more power and capability with better fuel economy.

I like the 5.6 liter engine a lot! Lacks modern technology, but very good truck for what I needed at the time I bought it!
