Would recommend a 05, have had a few problems with my 04 CC 4X4, may have addressed a few of the problems they saw in the 04'S, I too drove Chevy, had good luck with my trucks.  Last truck was an 02 with the 6.0 liter, CC 4X4, pulled my enclosed trailer nicely, Titan seems to move the same trailer even better, getting better fuel mileage now finally after 8000 miles, 17.4 empty driving 65, the best I could do with the Chevy was a little better than 15, Tranny seems to run on the hot side when pulling the trailer, ordered the Big tow package but this doesn't include an auxillary tranny cooler like GM does with the tow package, didn't know this until after the fact, planning on installing an aftermarket transmission cooler in the near future. Titan has more room in the back than my Chevy did, much easier to sit in the back now, time will tell how the Titan holds up. There have also been quite a few rear differential failures on the 04'S, never had to worry about this on my Chevys, resale on GM is quite good, depends on what you read, some say Nissan is terrible and the next reader say it is quite good, know the local Dodge dealer in town and he stated that Nissan brings good money at the auctions, overall I am happy with the truck so far, don't consider it to be a substantially better truck than my Chevy, will I by another one (don't know @ this point) Next purchase will be a diesel so will more than likely buy another Chevy, the Ford and Dodge Cummins Diesel's won't be ruled out by any means because I think they are all excellent vehicles, makes it hard for me when purchasing another vehicle since I am not brand loyal, buy the one that appeals to me the best at the time, looked at the horsepower and torque figures between the big 3, liked what I seen with the Titan, read various articles in magazines when they compared these 4 towing trailers and they all made positive remarks about the Titans ability to pull a trailer with ease. You won't be disapointed with your purchase, fun vehicle to drive, purchased the LE CC 4X4 with the Off Road & Big Tow Package, wished I would have gone with the GPS now but this was another $2000.00, if I do buy another Titan will get this the next time around.
