The 2005 Nissan Titan Crew Cab enters its second year in the marketplace with several significant upgrades plus revised option package contents that will improve its price position in the full-size truck segment.
For the 2005 model year, Titan Crew Cab adds a power up/down rear privacy back glass with defroster on all models, providing an open-air feeling to the truck. Also new for 2005 is a dampened tailgate assist, which helps reduce effort in opening and closing the tailgate, front-seat active head restraints and new packaging.
