2017 Titan in Canada - questions about buying a used one

LevesqueOnline said:

Good Day,

I am looking at upgrading my frontier to a larger truck to haul my large boat. I have always been a ram guy but love my frontier, and there are some nice Titans on the used market. few 2017's I was potentially interested in but figured I should check in with the folks here.

I had a few questions, as you may or may not be aware the Titan was pulled from the Canadian market, and rumor has it pulling from US as well within the next 2-3 years. If you were in my shoes would you buy one?

1) is the 2017 titan a super reliable truck? I would think the new gen has been out long enough folks have a good idea, I know previous Nissans have been rock solid.
2) with them pulling the titan out, I suspect in years to come parts will be harder to get, I don't drive more than 10000 miles a year so I would expect to have it along time

Just looking for some general thoughts before I get myself into a potentially regretable situation

appreciate anyones thoughts.

I've owned many trucks over the years and when I bought my 2009 Nissan Frontier I was sure it was the best truck I ever owned. It was a fantastic truck and out performed my friends V8 Dodges, V8 Chevys, V8 Fords and that used to really frustrate them. I owned a boat and decided something bigger but not something that would bankrupt be getting more horsepower was in order. I traded the 2009 Frontier in on a brand new 2017 Titan. Once again this truck out performs other brands even where various magazines have a habit of downplaying the Nissan trucks. Friends used to be embarrassed when I pulled their V8's out of ditches or they had to switch out their V8 Dodge Hemi-dually for my V6 Frontier to pull their boat up a hill, I still get the calls but friends aren't so embarrassed being pulled out of ditches by a Nissan V8 even if car/truck magazines don't rate the V8 Nissan as good as the far, far mire expensive Dodge, Chevy, Ford, etc. I'm getting old and doubt I'll be buying another truck again but if something should happen to my 2017 Nissan, the new best truck I've ever owned, I will be shopping for another Nissan. This is the 4th Nissan we have owned. 2 Rogues, 1 Frontier and of course the Titan. One of the first things we noticed about the Titan was it is a far better ride that either of the Rogues we're owned (2015 and 2019). That's because the 2017 Titan cab is attached to the frame with hydraulic attachments. If you buy a used or even a new Titan, make sure it has the anti-corrosion device and if a used Titan, that it hasn't rusted.
