It was 2001. Crowds gathered at the North American International Auto Show, seeking the latest in power and performance; critics took hasty pictures with their flip-phones, trying to memorize every spec sheet and concept image; and Nissan dominated the stage with the reveal of its Alpha T. Clad in aluminum alloy, this pick-up glittered beneath the spotlight and stole every accolade.

Donâ€™t remember this moment? The Kirkland team doesnâ€™t blame you. Despite its auspicious Auto Show reveal, the Alpha T never made it to production. Its style - though dynamic - simply didnâ€™t translate to everyday travels, emphasizing sleek lines and sliding bed floors. It was a too-strong concept that couldn't work on the highway.

In 2004, however, drivers were able to experience some of the Alphaâ€™s bold design - with Nissan fusing its fledgling Titan with surprising sophistication. Premium cloth seats offered 8-way power adjusters and lumbar support; while leather trims highlighted the steering wheel, door panels, and parking brake. A gated gearshift anchored the central console, flanked by enlarged radio dials for a sporty effect. All of this paired with a striking exterior, which blended a blistered cargo box with aluminum accents.

The 2004 Titan drew undeniable inspiration from the Alpha T - and a new kind of pick-up experience was formed.
