The all-new 2004 Titan Crew Cab, like the Titan King Cab, is in a league of its own when it comes to styling and innovation, bringing a fresh, new alternative in the full-size truck category. Features include a spacious cabin with class-leading* interior room, a high-utility bed with an industry-first factory-applied spray-in bedliner, a new Utili-track™ tie-down system that provides ultimate cargo hauling flexibility and an integrated, lockable bedside storage compartment.

The Titan Crew Cab is built on an all-new rugged pickup platform, featuring a newly designed Nissan Endurance 5.6-liter DOHC V8 producing 305 horsepower and 379 lb-ft of torque, standard 5-speed automatic transmission and a towing capacity of up to 9,400 pounds. The Nissan Titan Crew Cab will be available with a choice of 2-wheel and 4-wheel drive.

The new Titan, which was conceived, developed, styled and engineered primarily in North America, will be assembled at Nissan's new $1.43 billion manufacturing facility in Canton, Mississippi. The Titan Crew Cab is scheduled to go on sale at more than 1,100 Nissan dealers nationwide in late 2003. Highlights of the 2004 Nissan Titan Crew Cab full-size pickup include:
