So, what
do we care if the temps in
Chicago next week are
supposed to be in the single digits? Nissan’s bringing a trio of updated trucks
to the
Chicago auto show, including the 2008 versions
of the Pathfinder, Armada, and Titan.
The new
Titan gets a long-wheelbase version as well as a PRO-4X model sandwiched in
between the usual XE, SE, and LE models. The Titan remains flex-fuel capable,
through its 5.6-liter, 315-hp V-8. The facelift includes a new grille and fascia
and new wheels; inside, the changes are limited to new seats, new instruments,
and new options like a Bluetooth system, XM tuner, and a bigger eight-inch DVD
screen for the entertainment system.
For 2008, the Pathfinder gets a 300-plus-horsepower
version of the Titan’s 5.6-liter V-8. The first V-8 ever offered in the
Pathfinder helps it tow up to 7000 pounds. The 266-hp, 4.0-liter V-6 remains on
the standard equipment list. New options include a nav system with a 9.3GB
“Music Box” entertainment system, new front and rear styling, and new 17- and
18-inch wheels.
The Armada, meanwhile, gets similar styling changes
to the Titan, with the addition of 20-inch wheels as an option, as well as a
power folding third-row seat, woodgrain trim, a heated steering wheel, and the
Music Box audio and DVD navigation system.
