Dog food and water dish holders under the wide part of the rear fold up seat on crew cab models. All kinds of cup holders for the rest of the family - how about a couple for the Bulldog? He spends as much time in the truck as me and my kid.

Re: Future Nissan Titan Ideas/Discussion/Suggestions?

beefier axles
get rid of the aluminum front axle housing
genuine dana 44 (not nissan specific) rear end, or even a dana 60
locker option in front (non aluminum) axle
real paint, not the paper thin crap they spray on now
full length, frame mounted skid plates
rock sliders (toyota offers them on the fj)
stronger coil buckets
more front suspension travel
decent tires from the factory
a/c that shuts off when you turn it off
diesel option, 1/2 ton or 3/4 ton
regular cab with a short bed
roof rack
LEATHER, not pleather. or atleast call it that
less plastic on the interior, more fabric
NO UGLY WOOD GRAIN either
if you are going to claim 33" tires, make them a common 33" tire size. (33/12.50???)

I'll think of more later....

Oh yeah. SOLID FRONT AXLE!

Re: Future Nissan Titan Ideas/Discussion/Suggestions?

Here's my $.02 trying to be realistic (I wouldn't have paid for a supercharger option as much as I would have liked to had one)

1. Different fabric for the seats, a wet swimsuit should not leave a mark

2. Tailgate should work with the power locks from the factory

3. Level stance, an even higher stance is better for me but I understand people have different opinions and that the Titan has to try and please them all

4. Bluetooth to connect a phone or mp3 player to the stereo

5. Modify the power seat controls so I am not as likely to move the seat everytime I get in/out or reach into the truck

6. A coin holder somewhere in one of the fifty little storage compartments

7. An actual trip computer that shows instant/avg. MPG, Distance to empty, Engine time, etc....instead of just the tempature gauge. The more information the better but I understand that putting all the information from a scangauge in every truck would probably just confuse the vast majority of the public

8. Let your dealers correct the speedo for different sized tires...Can this really be that hard???

9. Any technologies that can increase gas mileage without sacrificing too much performance (and don't cost an arm and a leg). I will always have a truck as long as I can afford it but I cringe to think what the pump will read to fill up my Titan 6 years from now when gas is $8.00 /gal.

10. All Titans should be FFV...it doesn't make sense not to do this

11. Remote up on ALL the windows. Remote down is great for those hot days but d@mn I still have to go out in the rain to roll-up my windows?

12. More Payload capacity...I know I have probably overloaded my Titan on more than one occasion.

13. AWD as long as it is in addition to full time 4 wheel drive and doesn't replace it

14. Shut the d@mn compressor off when I turn my defrost off. I don't need the AC on in the middle of winter

15. Side air bags should be standard...is it really necessary to gouge the customer for a safety feature? I mean look at this list of required options to get side airbags:
SE: Requires Tow Package, Trac Package (4x2 only), Off-road Package (4x4 only), SE Utility Bed Package, and Nissan Mobile Theater DVD System (Crew Cabs with captain’s chairs). In addition, Popular Package or Rockford Fosgate Package is required.
LE: Requires Tow Package, Off-road Package (4x4 only), Nissan Navigation System option, Sunroof option (Crew Cab only), and Nissan DVD Mobile Theater System (Crew Cab with captain’s chairs).
Come on the DVD system is required to get airbags???

Other than that I love my Titan

Re: Future Nissan Titan Ideas/Discussion/Suggestions?

I'd still like to see an HD version. Given that, ANYTHING that would increase the capacities of this truck to be able to tow one of the lighter 5th Wheels out there such as:
Diesel
Higher Payload Capacity
Bigger Brakes
Saddle Tanks
6 Speed
Built in EBC
Trip Computer
True Limited Slip

Re: Future Nissan Titan Ideas/Discussion/Suggestions?

Dual bed storage compartments.
A tailgate that doesn't rattle.
Better tail gate seal from the elements.
Higher capacity gas tank.
A dead pedal to rest the left foot on.
Attention to paint quality, thickness and orange peel.
Standard dials for operating the climate control system instead of turn and hold for temp number to increase.
Ductwork for heating the rear of the king cab.
Pushbutton start and fob design like on 07 Altima.
Touch screen on the navigation system and not a joy stick.
Rubber floor option instead of carpet.
Splash guard covers to keep mud and ice from accumulating in open area.
Heated windshield washer fluid option.
More scuff resistant interior plastics.
Power rear sliding window on the king cab.
Different seat adjustments: (bottom cushion moves independant of the back changing lumbar support position).
Full leather seats.
Simulated suede seats (like on Volvo S40, S60)
Beefy brakes
Stronger axles.
Beefier steering rack.
A true limited slip option.
Dual VVT
Color selectable instrumentation lighting (orange, blue, white, green, red)
Power provision near roof for radar detectors, GPS, navi, etc.
