2009 Nissan Titan King Cab and Crew Cab
The Nissan Titan full-size pickup, which enters its fifth year of production in 2009, continues to build on its reputation as rugged, reliable, spirited choice for active truck buyers seeking style, innovation and excellent value. Changes for the new model year include revised features and equipment packages – including new Max Utility Packages that combine some of the most popular towing and bed utility items.
The 2009 Titan is offered in King Cab and Crew Cab body styles with a choice of 4x4 and 4x2 drive configurations, along with two wheelbases and four bed lengths.
The 2009 Titan is built on Nissan’s rugged F-Alpha pickup platform, featuring a powerful 5.6-liter DOHC Endurance V8 rated at 317 horsepower and 385 lb-ft torque. Titan features a standard 5-speed automatic transmission and a maximum towing capacity of up to 9,500 pounds for King Cab and 9,400 pounds for Crew Cab (when properly equipped).
Titan continues to boast innovative features such as first-in-class Wide-Open rear doors (King Cab) that open 168 degrees for nearly unlimited interior access, a high-utility bed that includes an industry-first factory-applied spray-on bedliner, a Utili-track tie-down system that provides ultimate cargo hauling flexibility and an integrated, lockable bedside storage compartment.
Enhancements to the 2009 Titan include:
· Matte black finish grille and body-color front bumper for Titan XE models
* New auto speed-sensing door locks
· New SE and LE Heavy Metal Packages (except Texas)
· New SE and LE Texas Titan Package (Texas only)
· New Max Utility Package
Titan is once again available in four well-equipped models – XE, SE, PRO-4X and LE. Titan is also available as a Flexible Fuel Vehicle (FFV) designed to run on E85 Ethanol. It went on sale in May 2008.
2009 Nissan Frontier King Cab and Crew Cab
The Nissan Frontier, a no-compromise pickup forged with premium hardware, extraordinary power and off-road athleticism, continues to be a leader in the mid-size truck segment. Improving its already impressive packaging, the 2009 Frontier is updated with a new front fascia grille and headlight design and new machine-finished 16-inch wheels (PRO-4X) and new 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels (LE). Additionally, a Frontier PRO-4X off-road model is added, along with new Crew Cab LE and PRO-4X Value Truck Packages (VTP).
Enhancement for 2009 include:
· Restyled front fascia/grille design
· New headlight design
· LE models offer new 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels
· SE models feature new 16-inch aluminum-alloy wheels
· PRO-4X models receive new machine-finished 16-inch aluminum-alloy wheels
· Two new exterior colors: Red Brick and Navy Blue
· New center radio and HVAC stack (V6 models)
· New seat cloth for LE models
· New Frontier PRO-4X model with body-colored grille and bumpers, outside mirrors and door handles and fog lights, Bilstein® off-road high-pressure shock absorbers, additional skid plates on the oil pan and transfer case, an electronic rear differential locker, 2- or 4-wheel limited-slip (ABLS) and unique machine-finished 16-inch aluminum-alloy off-road wheels with large BF Goodrich P265/75R16 Rugged Trail tires, leather-appointed red-stitched shifter knob (M/T only) and steering wheel, chrome accent ring around the white-faced meter gauges and trip computer
· PRO-4X King Cab models include a factory-applied spray-on bedliner, bed rail caps, Utili-track channel system and four adjustable tie-down cleats (standard on Crew Cab)
The Nissan Frontier continues to offer an unmatched level of on- and off- road performance with the use of a 261-horsepower 4.0-liter DOHC V6 engine or available 152-horsepower 4-cylinder (4x2 XE and SE I4 only).
The 2009 Frontier is offered in XE, SE, LE and PRO-4X models. It goes on sale in July 2008.

Wow automatic door locks? Think I can live without this feature. That was big thing back in the early to mid 90's. Guess this will be the last year we can truly call it a NISSAN.
