Nissan has unveiled a one-off pickup called the
Ultimate Work Titan. Based on the Titan XD Diesel Crew Cab Midnight Edition, the Ultimate
Work Titan is a heavily customized truck that has been created for Habitat for
Humanity.
Designed to aid in building homes for the less
fortunate, the truck has been equipped with heavy duty bumpers, aftermarket
fender flares and a Warn Zeon Platinum 12-S winch. The Titan also features
auxiliary lights, a three-inch lift kit and Icon wheels that are wrapped in
35-inch Nitto Ridge Grappler tires.
More meaningful upgrades occur in the bed as the
Titan features a TrailFX ladder rack, a lockable storage system and lockable
tool boxes. The latter hold an assortment of tools including a chop saw, air
compressor and drill kit. The upgrades continue in the cabin as designers installed a custom
desk and file storage system in the rear passenger compartment. The truck also
features a 13-inch laptop and a printer.
While the upgrades sound like overkill, Nissan says
they spent “countless hours talking with construction site supervisors and
volunteers across the country to find out what they needed most in a truck.”
Among the things mentioned were off-road capability, tool storage and a
comfortable work space.
Nissan didn’t say much else about the truck, but it
uses a 5.0-liter Cummins turbodiesel V8 engine that produces 310 hp and 751 Nm of torque. It is connected to a six-speed
automatic transmission which is presumably paired to a four-wheel drive system.
The Ultimate Work Titan will be on display at The
Work Truck Show through the end of the week, before being donated to Habitat
for Humanity.
