  Trucks carry a lot of power and have previously been thought of as strictly vehicles of purpose, perfect for adventurers and work vehicles such as landscapers and construction companies alike. But trucks have evolved a great deal, particularly in recent years. Gone are the days of trucks with few interior comforts, lower levels of safety than other vehicles, and a lack of technology integration. Trucks have become the ideal vehicle for many reasons – not just their capabilities (though the capabilities of a truck should not, of course, be overlooked and overshadowed). In this brave new world, it can be challenging to find exactly the right truck to suit your needs. Some people might be looking for more space in the bed of the truck, while others might want a truck that has considerably more cab space than the average model. Here we'll take a look at the 2018 Chevy Silverado vs. 2018 Nissan Titan. Both are great light-duty trucks that offer plenty of space and safety and entertainment technology. However, with a better selection of standard and available features across the board, and at a lower starting MSRP of $28,300, we think the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado comes out a clear winner against the 2018 Nissan Titan.
  When it comes to performance very few if any can compete with the raw power of the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado. Sad to say the 2018 Nissan Titan is no exception to this and also falls just a bit short when compared to the might of a Silverado.
  The 2018 Nissan Titan is only offered with a single gas 5.6L V8 engine. The Titan offers a power output of 390 hp, placing right in the middle of the 2018 Silverados engine offerings. The max towing capacity is 9,750 pounds with 394 lb-ft of torque to back it up. Overall it isn't the most impressive pickup on the market, but it will get the job done better than some.
  For the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado as well as the 2018 Nissan Titan, safety is seen not as a secondary thought but as a priority. Neither truck will back down when it's come to providing their passengers with peace of mind.
  The 2018 Chevrolet Silverado has helped to pave the way in safety features by implementing both the tried and true features as well as the newer and more advanced safety innovations. One critical aspect of the safety features found in the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado is that of preventative safety. For instance, the feature of low speed forward automatic braking is a prevalent one that comes as a standard feature and is effective in preventing accidents before they even occur. More preventative features include forward collision alert, rear vision camera, and the always impressive lane keeping assist with a warning when the driver is coming dangerously close to veering out of their designated lane. For new or uncertain drivers that lack the confidence needed on the road, these features can truly transform their driving experience, as well as help them learn and grow in a secure environment.
  The 2018 Chevrolet Silverado also includes many features that will provide a great deal of protection in the event that a crash does occur and can't be prevented. Such important and key safety features include an extensive system of airbags and a steel safety cage that can limit the extent of the injuries suffered by the passengers in the truck at the time of the accident.
  The 2018 Nissan Titan also has some safety features that are impressive, although Nissan's offerings are far more basic. With six standard airbags (the same number as the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado) to the system of vehicle dynamic controls, which helps to detect over or understeering of the truck. Also included are the features of tire pressure monitoring and an anti-lock braking system as well as commonly found features of blind spot monitoring and rearview cameras to use while parking or trailering.
  The size of a vehicle says a lot about its potential. When compared to the 2018 Nissan Titan, the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado offers more space for everything you need to carry and even increased bed volume and interior cubby storage, making the Silverado the clear winner of the space and cargo department.
  The 2018 Chevrolet Silverado is nothing if not an impressive vehicle, but many seem unaware of its remarkable access to storage space. For instance, though under seat storage does not come as a standard feature of the vehicle, many owners of the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado choose to upgrade for this premium feature, as well as the console insert organizer tray that is also offered. Though this insert organizer tray could perhaps be considered a small thing, it shows the attention to detail that has been taken account during the design of the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado. Chevrolet knows you spend lots and lots of time in your truck. Having a place for everything allows a level of comfort and convenience not found from other brands.
  The 2018 Chevrolet Silverado also has the option of a second row of seating in the double cab and crew cab models that can be folded up when necessary. This bench seat in the back provides a great deal of extra space, either when used to carry greater numbers of passengers (perfect, let's say, for the typically sized American family) or when used to store equipment or other such cargo. This, in combination with the space that the bed, measuring in at a length of just more than 69 inches, provides an impressive amount of space and ease in the transport of material goods as well as of people
  The 2018 Nissan Titan provides a good amount of storage space, seating a maximum of five passengers (one less than the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado but more than the typical truck cab is capable of accommodating). The back seats of the 2018 Nissan Titan are also capable of folding down, and this provides front row passengers with either extra storage space or the unique function of a mini desk for a laptop, allowing occupants of the truck to create a workspace on the go. There is an also a very large storage console located between seats in the 2018 Nissan Titan. Perfect, again, for the traveling working person, this console is even large enough to comfortably accommodate a standard sized laptop. Finally, there is also a cargo organizer available for the rear seat, complete with a lock to keep your possessions as safe and secure as is possible while on the road.
