Five Ways to Prepare for Thanksgiving Road Trips

With the Thanksgiving holiday the busiest travel days of the year, millions are hitting the road to drive to their loved ones. Your team of experts at Speedcraft Nissan can help keep your trip trouble-free. Before visions of turkey, stuffing and football dance through your head, however, think about tires, wiper blades, battery, an emergency road kit and a vehicle inspection. Proper planning ahead of time can head off any issues that can delay your arrival. Schedule Your Speedcraft Nissan Service Online These five simple tasks are recommended by AAA: Check tire pressure. Ask your technician to check the pressure and tread depth on all the tires, including the spare. While checking the tread, technicians can find uneven tire wear that can indicate alignment, suspension or wheel balance problems that need to be addressed to prevent further damage. Check wiper blades. Wiper blades should completely clear the glass with each swipe. Have them replaced if they leave streaks or miss spots. Also, make sure the windshield washer reservoir is filled with a cleaning solution that will not freeze in cold weather. Check the battery. Speedcraft Nissan technicians can make sure the battery cable connections are tight, and the terminals aren’t corroded. If the battery is more than three years old, it’s a good idea to have it tested to determine how much life it has left. Pack an emergency road kit – It’s always a good idea to carry an emergency kit with an ice scraper and snow brush, sand, cat litter, or traction mats, a small shovel, gloves, hats and blankets, a flashlight with fresh batteries, shop rags or paper towels, jumper cables, warning flares or triangles, drinking water, non-perishable snacks, extra warm clothes, a first-aid kit, basic hand tools and a e phone and car charger. Inspect your vehicle. You might as well get this task done before traveling. Speedcraft Nissan can conduct a thorough inspection to identify potential problems before they put a damper on holiday travel.

Titan XD

2017 Nissan Titan vs Titan XD

2017 Nissan Titan A More Compact Version of Titan XD Awarded Truck Trend’s 2017 Pickup Truck of the Year, the 2017 Nissan Titan has been a huge success. Some prefer the heft of the 2017 Titan XD, but some are looking for a high-performance pickup with less bulk. At Speedcraft Nissan in West Warwick, we’re finding the XD is popular with buyers who want a full-size pickup that outpaces its competition, but some don’t need to tow 12,000 pounds and are looking for more maneuverability. Both Titan and Titan XD feature a new Endurance V8 engine, although the Cummins Turbo Diesel engine is not offered on the standard Titan. The 5.6L Endurance V8 produces an impressive 390 horsepower and is matched with a seven-speed automatic transmission. Staff at Truck Trend say that combination made it one of the quickest production pickups their experts have ever tested. Truck Trend, an offshoot of Motor Trend magazine, was so impressed with the Titan that it named it the Truck Trend 2017 Pickup Truck of the Year. Capable, practical and comfortable – that’s what made the Titans rise to the top. Browse Nissan Inventory “With the launch of the 2017 Titan, Nissan has set out to redefine itself as a force in the pickup market,” says Truck Trend Editor Jason Gonderman. “By combining a richly appointed interior and deep feature set with a stout drivetrain and respectable capabilities, Nissan has reemerged as a player in the half-ton pickup market. Combined with an industry-best 5-year, 100,000-mile warranty and low cost of entry compared to the competition, Nissan looks to have found the winning combination with the all-new Titan.” Both are four-door vehicles that seat six. The 2017 Titan is the same width as the XD at 79.5 inches, but its wheelbase is one foot shorter, and nearly 15 inches have been cut from the length. To compare maximum payload, the Titan’s is up to 1,950 and the Titan XD capacity is up to 2,910 pounds. The Titan’s maximum towing capacity is 9,740 pounds, which is powerful enough to pull a livestock trailer and two steer, but the Titan XD, as previously noted, can pull an even heavier load. The XD also features a reinforced, fully boxed, full-length ladder frame and huge, heavy-duty 14-inch brakes.

Difference Between Nissan Frontier Crew Cab and King Cab

Choosing the right pickup truck configuration can make a significant difference in your overall driving experience, comfort, and functionality. At Speedcraft Nissan, we know Rhode Island’s drivers value both versatility and style. We’re here to help guide you through the differences between the Nissan Frontier Crew Cab and King Cab so you can pick the right fit for your needs. Whether you’re looking for more passenger space, a longer truck bed, or enhanced flexibility, this guide will help you make an informed decision. Quick Overview Here’s a snapshot of what you’ll learn in this guide: Distinctions in passenger space, bed length, and functionality between the Crew Cab and King Cab. What the King Cab design offers in terms of flexibility and utility. Bed length dimensions and how they fit real-world hauling needs. How to decide on the configuration based on your lifestyle and work requirements. Crew Cab vs. King Cab: A Detailed Comparison Passenger Capacity and Interior Space The Crew Cab is designed with four full-size doors and a roomy rear seating area, comfortably seating up to five passengers. It’s an ideal option for families or work crews and offers approximately 33.2 inches of rear legroom. For longer drives around Rhode Island, this additional space ensures maximum comfort. On the other hand, the King Cab comes with rear-hinged doors providing access to a compact rear seating area, suitable for occasional passengers or additional cargo storage. It seats up to four and has approximately 26.2 inches of rear legroom, making it better suited for light passenger use or gear transportation. Bed Length and Cargo Considerations If hauling is your top priority, the King Cab might be your configuration of choice. It features a standard bed length of 73.3 inches, offering more room for tools, equipment, or outdoor adventure gear. The Crew Cab, in contrast, offers a standard bed length of 59.5 inches. For those needing a longer bed but still wanting the benefits of the Crew Cab interior, the Crew Cab Long Bed SV trim provides the same 73.3-inch bed as the King Cab, giving you the best of both worlds. Performance and Handling Both configurations share an impressive 3.8-liter V6 engine, delivering 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission for a smooth ride. The King Cab, being lighter, offers slightly better fuel efficiency and nimbleness, perfect for tight city spots in Providence or Warwick. Conversely, the Crew Cab provides better ride stability when fully loaded, ideal for highway runs to Newport or Cranston. What Makes the King Cab Unique? Extended Cab Design The King Cab’s standout feature is its rear-hinged doors, allowing you to maximize the use of the interior. This design is perfect for transporting gear, thanks to the stowable jump seats that create extra space. Who is the King Cab For? Contractors needing cargo space and occasional passenger seating around Cranston or East Greenwich. Outdoor enthusiasts who require room for kayaks, bikes, or camping gear. Drivers prioritizing a lower starting price with simpler rear seating. Bed Dimensions on the King Cab The King Cab’s 73.3-inch bed sets it apart, offering ample room for everything from construction materials to recreational equipment. With a width of 61.4 inches (narrowing to 44.5 inches between wheel wells) and a depth of 19.4 inches, you can haul with confidence. Additional cargo features include: Spray-in bedliners for long-lasting durability. Utili-track systems for securing loads. Under-rail bed lighting for better visibility. Deciding Between the Crew Cab and King Cab Go for the Crew Cab If: You need seating capacity for family or work teams. You prioritize full-size passenger doors for easy access. Comfort and safety features for rear passengers are a must. Choose the King Cab If: Hauling longer or larger items is your primary focus. You value lighter weight and better maneuverability. Occasional rear seating is sufficient for your needs. Why Choose Speedcraft Nissan?
