Nissan Titan A60

2004–2015 · A60 · truck

First-generation full-size Titan. 5.6L VK56DE V8 (~317hp / 385 lb-ft from 2004; revised later). 5-speed RE5R05A automatic. RWD or shift-on-the-fly 4WD. Body-on-frame, fully boxed F-Alpha platform shared with the Nissan Armada and Infiniti QX56. King Cab or Crew Cab. Built at Nissan's Canton, MS plant. Ran for 12 model years with mid-cycle facelifts but no full redesign. Nissan kept it on sale while the Big Three iterated.

Watch out: The early VK56DE has documented exhaust manifold cracking, listen for a tick on cold start. Also: the rear differential and the front lower-ball-joint area on 4WD trucks both have known wear patterns. Brake rotor warping was a common complaint in the first few model years.
