2006 Nissan Titan towing capacity
The 2006 Nissan Titan is published in 24 configurations, with tow ratings ranging from 6,500 to 7,400 lb depending on cab, bed, drivetrain, and hitch class. The peak figure (7,400 lb) sits in mid-size SUV / pickup territory.
The table below lists every trim of the 2006 Nissan Titan with the engine, drivetrain, axle ratio, horsepower, torque, GVWR, curb weight, and payload that go with that trim's headline tow rating. Manufacturers often publish more than one tow figure per truck — a conventional bumper-hitch rating, a weight-distributing rating, and a gooseneck or fifth-wheel rating — so the highest number here is the maximum across all hitch classes the source carries for the trim.

How to interpret the headline tow figure
Tow ratings at this level are normally achievable with a conventional Class II or Class III receiver hitch. Always verify your vehicle has the manufacturer's tow package installed if you intend to tow at the upper end of the rating, and inspect the door-jamb sticker for the actual maximum permitted on your specific configuration.
How this year compares to 2005
The 2005 Nissan Titan carried a maximum tow rating of 7,400 lb. The 2006 model carries the same headline figure — manufacturers usually leave the rating alone year-over-year unless there's a powertrain or hitch change. See the 2005 Nissan Titan page for the full per-trim breakdown of the prior year.
