Nissan's
first entry into the full size truck market, the 2004 Nissan
Titan, made a strong showing at SEMA 2003. Nissan's own booth had
two highly customized Titan's overlooking the crowd.
Nissan's
folks are very excited about the upcoming Titan launch. They are currently
running 15 second "credibility spots", short clips of the Titan on TV
spots targeted towards their market (ESPN, Fox Sports, etc.) Nissan's
"credibility spots" focus on the numbers, and those numbers - 305 horsepower
at 4900 rpm and 379 pound-feet of torque and 3600 rpm - show that this
full size truck is the real deal.
Production
for the Nissan Titan began on October 20, 2003. 150 will be produced and
these will be shipped within a few weeks to Nissan's 150 largest dealers
across the south central and south eastern regions (regions closest to
Titan's manufacturing plant in Canton, Mississippi) and will be avaiable
for customers to test drive. The Titan goes on sale December 1st, and
pricing will be available next week.
Nissan's
first customized truck was done by Street Concepts of Garden Grove, CA.
It features an audio/video system and a 14" lift kit. Full specifications
and additional pictures are available in the photo
gallery.
Nissan's
second truck was built by CST Performance Suspension of Riverside, CA.
This baby has a 14"/17" lift kit, a B. Kool Billet Grille, and a carbon
fiber hood. Full specification and additional pictures are also available
in the photo
gallery.
