2005 Nissan Armada Preview summaryImage

Just introduced the year before, the Nissan Armada saw very few changes for 2005. New features do include a rear view camera.

The 2005 Armada comes in two trims, the SE and LE, both of which come in various incarnations. The SE is available as a 4WD, 2WD, and the Off Road version. The LE is the more luxurious version, and is available as a 4WD or 2WD and comes standard with posh options like leather seating. The Armada has a 5.8-liter V8 engine that offers 305 horsepower.

Drivers like the Armada because it offers lots of cargo and passenger space, and it handles surprisingly well for its bulk. However, many drivers have had serious problems with the brakes and tires wearing out.

Dirty cramped lot ... everything was damaged and covered in dust and dirt. The lot alone had me saying no but the SUV looked like a piece of junk. Jun 22, 2022

I really like the features with these models. Yes its a decent value. Only thing missing that I enjoy having in a vehicle is the touch screen in dash. I would compare these models to a pathfinder. They are pretty similar in comparison and including price point.Apr 06, 2021
