Here's what Edmunds.com has to say about the 2005 Nissan Titan, for example ('Consumer's Most Wanted' Award Winner and 'Editor's Most Wanted' Award Winner): " ... the Titan's impressive power and comfortable cabin helped it win again this year ... One of the best drivetrains in its class, smooth-riding suspension, spacious and functional cabin, innovative design features ... "

We're big fans of the Titan ourselves. We think it's an extremely versatile truck with a very nice drive and very good ratings. Most noted positives include its offroad capability, construction quality, handling and maneuverability as well as its automatic-transmission operation.

Edmunds.com also gave the 2004 model its "Consumers Most Wanted" award and the 2006 model its "Editor's Most Wanted" award. Cars.com also gave it its "Best Bet" award. So, we're certainly not alone in being impressed. Used car ratings for Nissans are also solid (#7 out of 33 - see Used Car Reliabilty Ratings), so we anticipate similar longer term dependability performance from the Titan as well.

We also appreciate the exterior design and interior layout and features. And we're certainly not complaining about the 5-Year/60,000 mile extended Factory Drivetrain Warranty as compared to most of the American counterparts.

So, yes, we think the Titans make a solid choice as a used truck purchase. And we can make two suggestions help you get one at a very nice savings:

We're not a "Retail Car Dealer". You see, we used to love cars (still do actually), but we hated buying them. We never could understand why cars were sold differently than anything else ... so many hassles, so much mistrust. So, now over 4 years ago we had this crazy idea about helping people bypass traditional Dealers when purchasing a vehicle.

Well, to make a long story short, we were bowled over by the response. We guess there's a lot of car buyers out there who feel the same way.

So, what do we do? We buy vehicles at Dealer-Only auctions paying trade-in prices. That's what "trade-in" value really is ... the price a Dealer is currently willing to pay at one of their own auctions. And then, because of our low-overhead, "no frills" operation, we're able to resell them with a quite modest markup.

First: We're always on the lookout for the nicest used Titans for sale at the wholesale Dealer-Only auctions we attend, including the Titan 4x4, King Cab, Crew Cab, XE, SE and LE models ... and we can buy one specifically for you.

You see, we can purchase any vehicle at a big discount to retail ... and pass these savings directly to you. Here's where to discover more about our very simple Car Buying Service.

SECOND: You can go to Open-To-The-Public Auto Auctions in your own geographic area. While this will take some additional time and effort on your part, there are indeed truly outstanding buys for those who shop these events.

Here's an article with additional information on locating these auctions and the key issues in using them to your advantage: Find Nissan Titans At Public Auto Auctions In Your Area.
