2023 Nissan Titan VS 2023 Nissan Frontier: Which Nissan Truck Is Best?

[@aarone9454]

Both trucks are very nice. As a new owner of a 2020 Nissan Titan pro-4x I am very happy with my purchase. I like that I don’t have to deal with auto start stop or cylinder deactivation. I hope this truck lasts me a very long time.

[@Rigo9]

I bet these 2 outlast anything the big 3 are currently offering.

[@ridynh7923]

[@hertzair1186]

Incredible horror stories from the big 3 in recent years! It's as though their employees are careless and unskilled.

[@ZacColeman]

As a 2021 Titan Pro4x owner I may be bias, but I prefer the the full size pickup for the same reasons you mentioned. Power with the V8 is great, comfort with the seats and space in the interior, and the reliability. The Frontier is a great midsized truck though. I would take it over anything else out there if I was in the market. I do wish these trucks had better aftermarket support. Despite that I love my Titan and hope Nissan keeps it around.

[@chrisx5127]

I'll take it over a Tacoma, but not a manual transmission Tacoma. I have a Titan Pro-4x instead. Would get a Frontier in a heartbeat if it had manual.

[@MrLewis91120]

The Titan is the better truck this should be America's number pick up. I just don't get it

[@chrisx5127]

Truck buyers are stupid with their brand loyalty. I love Toyota trucks, still ended up with a Titan Pro-4x. Love Tacoma but if Frontier had manual transmission, I would buy the Frontier easily.

[@InfiniteTranscendence]

I've had a 2006 Titan. Eventually sold it and decided to downsize to a 2022 Frontier as I figured I'd be okay with it. I could never get comfortable with it. It had an actuator issue with the lock, but since it was a brand new refresh I knew some quirks had to be worked out. The bottom line is, once you get used to a full sized truck, it's hard to downsize. They're just so much more comfortable and roomy. Inside and outside are great as I get a bigger bed to store things under my diamondback Tonneau cover. I ended up trading it in last November for a 2023 Titan that I got for not much more than the Frontier as the dealers in Atlanta have been cutting them down almost $10k. I The Titan just offers so much that it's hard to go for anything else. That said the Frontier is a great midsize truck and I would happily recommend it to anybody looking for midsize.

[@smittysmitty481]

The Frontier is so nice!

[@omarmartinez912]

Thanks Ben! These trucks are incredible and two of my personal favorites. I would be content with either, it all depends on towing needs.

[@stw2186]

I am looking to purchase my first truck and the 23 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X is on my radar. I am looking to test drive one hopefully soon!

[@thecentralman]

Both still having a hydraulic steering system is a plus for me. I drove the Frontier Pro 4X and I liked it. Perfect size and pretty torquey. I haven't driven the Titan yet but I know it is as fast as an SXT Charger pretty quick for a full size truck

[@shanec8224]

Its probably as fast as the RT charger

[@thecentralman]

@@shanec8224 haha no. The 3.6 Pentastar Charger gets around 6.1-6.4 seconds, identical with the Titan V8. The 5.7 Hemi is in the mid to low 5 second range for 0-60. So a V8 Charger would be quicker than a Titan.

[@2BrokeJokes]

Great video! I miss my 2020 Titan Pro4x. Looking to buy a new Titan soon.

[@dolguldur4706]

Why you sell your titan?

[@2BrokeJokes]

​@dolguldur4706 I travel alot for work so I was looking for better mpg. I got a Ford 150 XLT with the 2.7. Get mpg but its not Titan. The build quality in the Titan is far better then the Ford. I'm looking at a 2023 Titan pro4x next week.

[@XloMotion]

Got a 23 Frontier Pro 4X because I don't have the need for a full size truck. Got plenty of room inside and the most comfortable seat I have ever sat on! Plenty of power and with the tech package the LED headlights are awesome.

[@JoseMendoza-gq1bx]

Titan Pro-4x owner myself. I wanted the full-size truck for the beefier power, extra towing capability and larger cabin space. The mid-size is great for those seeking something smaller and 'fun'. Both great trucks, it boils down to how practical do you want your truck? Love Nissan vehicles, I've owned the 350z, 370z, Titan and soon the Armada. Great warranty and quality.

[@chrisx5127]

I still going to go off-road in my Pro-4x, which the front was higher though.

[@matthew7972]

$70k for a fucking truck.. can’t wait for the economy and auto market dive

I'd definitely take the Frontier over a Tacoma

In 2017 a local Nissan Dealer had the then new Nissan Titan with the 5.6 v8 and a 7 speed automatic regular cab 4x4 truck for $25,995 ! Truck prices are way over priced !

[@gregjoubert5118]

For the price it blows my mind in 2023 that the Frontier doesn't have a telescoping wheel and rear vents for the passengers or dogs.

AS the owner of a 2022 Frontier SV I can attest to the durability of these trucks, having owned a 2009 SE for 13 yrs, other than regular maintenance only had 1 issue with it and NO recalls. Nissan engineers put a more fuel efficient V6 and trans starting in 2020. Performance is great and shifts perfectly and better torque than the old 4.0 V6. My only complaints: they took out the bed floor cleats, no tinted glass on the windshield and went to a foot parking brake, hand brake was better. However they did add a rear sway bar which helps handling. Overall glad I got one.

[@ilikethesun2009]

I like the shoes you have on in this video...what are they?

[@mattt7815]

Great video, Ben. It will be interesting to see what happens with the Titan in the future, whether it stays in production or not. Hard to beat its warranty but not its fuel economy. The Frontier seems solid but the newer redesign already could use a few tweaks such as a tighter turning radius, telescoping steering wheel, power rear window, and rear seat AC vents, all of which many of its competitors have. I can’t imagine you ever get tired of those mountain views out west. Sure beats our overpopulated urban skyline views in central Ohio. LOL

[@johnculver3294]

I had my Titan at the local dealership for service a few weeks ago. While waiting I wondered the lot looking an vehicles and a salesman told me that the Titan is going to be killed off and later return as an electric truck. I hope to trade my 2019 Pro 4x for a Pro 4x XD next year.

[@deanmay338]

I am very impressed with both trucks. I will cross shop both. Love the Pro4X trim, but don’t need that much off road capability. I would go with SV trim (midnight edition). Love the Nissan truck warranty. Appreciate their naturally aspirated engines. Biggest issue for me is the marginal payload capacities in both. The SV trim would be better. Honda Ridgeline has more payload than either of these two trucks. I would lean toward the Frontier, but will shop for Titan discounts to see how close the Titan would be to some mid-size truck prices.

[@Oldjongcrow416]

[@SynysterGoose]

Frontier looks way better than the titan

[@rockyvi5709]

Nissan’s 5.6 doesn’t have the Hemi tick, GM LT’s cam failure nor Ford’s Eco boost cam actuator death rattle. I switch from a Ram to a Titan because of the awful E-Torque system in the Ram. So far I have been impressed by the 5.6s performance and the 9 speed transmission. These trucks are way underrated.

[@NFDBenTubeYou]

LOVE my 2019 Frontier PRO-4X. I’m due for an upgrade and like the better fuel economy on the new frontier. But do I offset the 4 mpg to the more capable full size Titan? Not sure!

[@craigchapman234]

I have the 2022 frontier 4X and I love it. I looked at the Titan but found it boring, basically a bigger frontier so I went with the cheaper but I do like the looks of the frontier better.

[@MSpeedThree]

Don't talk so fast. It's almost impossible to understand what you are saying. You are running your words together.

[@japerezo75]

Just test drove a Titan and decided to look for other options because of hard steering and bad rear camera resolution. Steering is important because the wife might occasionally have to drive it. Camera resolution is just something good is expected we’re in 2023.

[@walterlegrand321]

I have a 2023 Frontier and I’m loving it. Nothing against the Titan but my needs aren’t that big. Either way Nissan wins because both trucks look amazing and my Frontier runs great. Nissan should push these trucks because they looking amazing inside and out. The cameras and the tech are awesome. You can’t go wrong with either truck but the Frontier is my winner. Thanks for this because I never see a Nissan truck commercial on tv.

[@workingcountry1776]

A rear facing car seat will not fit in any mid sized pickup unless you move front seat up 6 or more inches. Also 3 across child seats fit in titan but not midsized. Real world mpg is about same on both especially in hill country.

[@Blue-moon12]

Canada stopped selling the Titan in 2021. As a result I bought a 2023 Frontier Pro 4x

[@slip0n0fall]

As a bigger guy i was surprised at how comfortable and roomy feeling the P4X was. Moreso than an SV, i think due to seat materials. I only *need* a Frontier but if money (fuel economy too) were no issue I'd take the Titan hands down.

[@JMM440xi]

Just bought a Titan. Feel very secure and equipped in the truck. Averaging over 20 mpg. For the extra money I feel it’s a better value than the Frontier. It’s got a the feel of a good solid old style durable truck.

[@therealmccoy2004]

22 frontier owner. And I can fit it in my garage. Drives like a full size truck but can maneuver like a sedan and still do what a full size truck can do just smaller..

[@michaelgreen9484]

Unfortunately Nissan is discontinuing the Titan in 2024. The Titan is an awesome truck, reliable, good looking and very durable. Nissan does a horrible job of advertising this great truck and the Titan was never a big sales hit in the half ton truck market. I own a 2021 Titan Pro 4X and I love this truck. Let’s hope Nissan brings back the Titan in the future, maybe as an EV.

[@sharkskin3448]

I 💯 agree with your summary. There's no resolving full vs midsize preference, but the Frontier is better in its category than the Titan is in its. I drive pickup trucks in my business. In many ways, a mid sized crew cab with a 6' bed is very comparable to a full sized crew cab with a short bed (LxW= usable bed space) but a little more gear storage in the back seat area of full size. Factor in fuel economy, price, drive ability/parking/bed accessibility; and mid sized trucks are more practical. Big trucks can be more fun until you get tired of them. I have to admit, though, full sized trucks get much more respect from cars on the highway. Especially black ones!🤪
