2017 Nissan Titan vs 2017 Ford F-150

Carroll County drivers need a truck that can deliver an intense amount of power with supreme handling and true comfort. The Titan doesn’t compromise.

• The 2017 Titan sports a 390-hp 5.6L V8 capable of 394 lb-ft of torque. Available with two- or four-wheel drive, the 7-speed automatic transmission has been engineered for efficiency and shifts smoothly whether you’re towing or not.
• The 2017 Ford F-150 comes close on power at 385 hp and 387 lb-ft of torque, but much like its six-speed automatic transmission, the F-150 just isn’t quite there when put side-by-side with the Titan.

As far as handling is concerned, we’ll leave it to Jalopnik, who called the Nissan Titan the exception that proves the F-150 shouldn’t be the default truck.

When you explore the roads and trails in a pickup truck, you want to have the confidence that you’ll be able to make your drive, head home, and do it again tomorrow. That means you need an impressive warranty.

• The 2017 Nissan Titan comes with a 5-year / 100,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty, so you have the peace of mind needed to head off-road or pick up another shift at a moment’s notice.
• Ford sticks with the standard, and F-150 drivers will only have a 3-year / 36,000-mile basic warranty.

Part of the fun of a big truck is knowing what it’s capable of doing – how fast it can go, how much it can tow – but you don’t want to floor that gas pedal without knowing you can depend on your truck with:

• Tow/Haul Mode
• Upgraded Front and Rear Differentials
• Adjustable Brake Controller
• Ventilated Disc Brakes (13.8-inch front / 13.6-inch rear)
• Rugged, Reinforced Double-Wishbone Front Suspension
