2018 Nissan Titan XD Platinum Reserve 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (5.0L 8cyl Turbodiesel 6A)

2018 Nissan Titan XD SL 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (5.6L 8cyl 7A)

I purchased my Titan XD in January of 2018. I have the 4X4 SL Crew Cab with the 5.6 gas V8. The truck has been great. It rides as smoothly as any family sedan and it quiet and comfortable inside. My old Titan had 180,000 miles when I traded it in, and was an incredible truck, so I have high expectations for the new model I bought. So far, it has exceeded my expectations. It gets good …

I couldn't be happier with my choice. Plenty of power and very comfortable for a large truck. I looked at all makes and models and found exactly what I wanted and needed with this Titan XD S. Priced …

Safety

Our experts like the Titan XD models:

Blind-Spot Warning: Alerts you when a vehicle is in the Titan XD's blind spot or when cross-traffic is approaching while the XD is backing up.
Intelligent Around-View Monitor: Provides a bird's-eye view of the area surrounding the truck, making it infinitely easier to park in tighter spaces.
Parking Sensors (Front and Rear): Warnings intensify as the Titan XD approaches an object behind or in front of the truck.
