2006 Nissan Armada Preview summaryImage

The 2006 Nissan Armada saw very few changes for 2006, which include mostly only comfort additions like heated mirrors in the LE and a 60/40 flat-folding seat across the lineup.

The 2006 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 appreciate the 2006 Armada's massive size, which allows for hauling plenty of people and cargo, and its surprisingly nimble handling. However, many have had serious problems with the brakes, enough that some people have accused the Armada of being a lemon.

This is the new addition to the family. She's pretty awesome. I've wanted a big truck for a loooong time and this fits the bill. Loving all the options it came with and it drives really nicely. Kiddos are happy with it as well.Jul 07, 2014

I bought this truck for my wife last year so she could have more room for kids and groceries. So it definitely filled the billet! Extremely fun to drive! A big massive ride with plenty of room for everyone. We love our Nissan Armada! Nov 10, 2013
