The 2018 Nissan Titan SL 4×4 Crew Cab Texas Edition easily and simply makes the grade in Hill Country Texas. Handsome, capable, powerful and comfortable, a Titan SL Crew Cab 4×4 easily handles in-town, highway and off-road challenges not only in Texas, but anywhere it goes.

Adding the Texas Edition Package, simply, tells the world this Titan is from Texas – where trucks are king. We say simply because, while other competitors offer their ‘Texas Edition’ versions loaded up with fancy stitching, hand tooled leather trims and accents like buckles and saddle bags to give them a Southwestern or Texas-like look, Nissan does not. Their truck already has all it needs to be Texas capable. All Nissan adds is the very bold ‘Texas Edition’ badging and floor mats, unique 20-inch bright chrome wheels with 275/60R20 Goodyear all-terrain tires, bright chrome grille, chrome exhaust finishers – and a Texas Titan is ready to roll.

We have driven the Titan V8 several times since it was launched so are very familiar with it. A few weeks back, Nissan loaned us a Titan SL Crew Cab Texas Edition 4×4 for a full-week follow-up ride and drive for us to see if we still thought it was as good as we thought from our earlier drives. It is.
The Texas Edition is based on the top-level SL trim level Titan which is already well equipped for in-town and highway driving plus backcountry adventure. We like to focus on the adventuring so that is where we begin.

Equipped to Adventure
Adventuring is dependent on a high performing power plant and drive train. Powered by the new 5.6L Endurance V8 engine producing 390 horsepower with 394 lb.-ft. of torque and equipped with a 7-speed automatic transmission, Shift-on-the-Fly 4WD System and 2-speed Transfer Case with 4HI and 4LO – the Titan Texas Edition meets that challenge with ease

Ready to challenge the outback terrain, our Titan Texas Edition 4×4 had ground clearance of 10.1-inches with angle of approach/departure of 20.0/22.9 degrees respectively and breakover angle of 21.7 degrees. To for driving off-road, it featured an Advanced Drive-Assist Display with Off-road Menu and Off-Road Indicator to assist us in our adventure. For protection, it also came with skid plates for the lower radiator, transfer case, oil pan and fuel tank. And, if our Titan needed to pull someone out of the ditch (we didn’t), it is equipped with a pair of tow hooks up front.
