Buying a Titan by iowabigguy
Dec 25, 2004 (3:50 pm)

I have been looking at buying a new truck. I currently have a Ram 1500 Quad cab but given all the buzz about the Titan I thought I'd consider it as well in my looking. I don't like a truck with a lot of electronic extras and was looking for a basic and safe truck. I guess I don't understand Nissan's packaging of requires options.
 
If I want a limited slip differential why can't I order it in a 4 wheel drive truck. Why do I need $10,000 in options to order side air bags, I thought that was a safety item that would not need to be packaged with all the other electronic crap. It sure doesn't look like the Titan can be configured the way you want it! Only the way to maximize profits. Even Toyota can be ordered with stand alone side air bags.
Well to Titans credit they are at least available, They don't seem to be available on Ford or Chevy Quad Cabs, guess safety does not sell. Rick

I am thinking about buying an extended warranty for a nissan titan, it cost $1300.00 for up to 100,000 miles. Are these really worth it for the amount of money you have to pay? Also how negoiatable is this price?

extended warranty (if its a NISSAN warranty) is definitely worth it! you have one or two issues that the warranty covers, it's paid for itself. there is some leeway in the price, but don't expect much negotiating...especially if you've haggled the heck out of the price of the car you are buying - dealerships, if they give up money on the deal, HAVE to make money elsewhere. otherwise, why stay open? what benefit does the dealership have of staying open, if they cant make money ANYWHERE?
 
give it a shot though, it cant hurt, but i wouldnt expect them to take off much, if any on the warranty - still a great value for what you pay! hope that helps! (and yes, i work in a car dealership as a salesperson)
 
happy motoring!

2004 LE CC Lease Quotes by flmthrwr31

I've received what I consider high lease quotes from a couple of dealers here in the Detroit area for a 2004 Titan Crew Cab LE with Big Tow.
 
The dealer is offering $496/month, 0 down for 36 months. The MSRP is $36000. This seems awfully high, considering it is a 2004 model, and I can lease a new Ford F150 Lariat for about 300/month with A plan discount. I estimate they are only reducing the price to about $30k.
 
What kinds of deals are you guys seeing out there? It seems like the leases aren't that great for Titans. I'm currently leasing an Altima 3.5SE, and thought they'd give me a deal.
 
Thanks in advance

Question on Dealer Added Options on Titan by chigirlintexas
Jan 22, 2005 (12:06 am)

Hi Titan Owners,
Mu hubby & I are looking at Titans, and the local (Dallas) dealer we went to tonight had every single Titan marked up $3200 with "Dealer Added Options" of "Paint Sealant," "Fabric Sealant," and "Tire Protection" which added $3200 to the price of every Titan on the lot. (The tire protection consisted of insurance in case you blew a tire and it wrecked your wheel too, for a whole 36K miles). Is this BS or what? Do all Nissan dealers do this? After all the research on pricing I had done online, I was shocked to see the prices on the vehicles so much higher with this obvious boloney markup. Does leather need a sealant? Does the new paint used these days need a sealant? What kind of crap is this? Any advice? This is the kind of stuff that makes new car shopping a nightmare. I hate to say it, but we may end up going back to the (cringe) Chevy dealer....

I feel it for you.
 
My dad used to tell me that there are more than a single dealer in the world and go for the next. If that Nissan dealer stinks we can go to other Nissan dealers. If Titans are sold too pricey at all Nissan dealers we can buy other makes as you suggested.
 
Having said that, I hope that you can find a Titan with your desired price range.

Yeap, I'd say find another dealer. But, like you said, those are dealer added "options," so if you don't see any value in them, factor that into any price you'd offer this dealer (i.e., subtract the $3200 before you even consider the initial offer you'd make). The worst (best?) that could happen is that the dealer wouldn't sell you the truck. Maybe, over the years, this dealer has learned that there are enough people out there who do not ask questions that they can afford to lose a few sales when they get a (whopping) extra $3200 off each sale they do make to a sucker. *shrugs*

you don't want to deal with a dealership that adds all kinds of crap without your consent. i work at a dealership, but we dont force people to get any of the paint sealant, etc if they dont want to. take your business to another dealership. and then call back to that first dealership and let them know they lost your business because of all the add ons that you do not have any interest in. hope that helps!
