Just an FYI, the Titan came in 3rd place in Motortrends Truck Trend 4x4 shootout. It's competition came from all of the big boys in off roading that had a locking rear diff. Jeep Rubicon, H1 and H2, Mercedes and Land Rover. Although Nissans trucks aren't known in the U.S. they are used throughout the world in extremely demanding situations and fair very good. Body rust has never been a problem with any Nissan vehicles. I have a coworker with a 12 year old Nissan Maxima. The only rust he has is where it was hit and repaired by a bodyshop. It's only a tiny patch and the car is not garage kept or maintaned very well.
