If you are in need of a full-size preowned SUV with a responsive powertrain and impressive hauling capabilities, allow us to turn your attention to the 2008 Armada LE. Based on Nissan's rugged Titan pickup, the Armada features a fully boxed truck frame, offering Seattle drivers serious towing abilities and space to transport up to eight passengers.Â
Â
Â
The 2008 Nissan Armada is anchored by a 5.6-liter V8 engine, which outputs a beastly 317 horsepower and a class-leading towing capacity of up to 9,100 lbs. With 385 lb-ft of torque, the Armada's 5,300-lb body glides through any terrain with ease, thanks to the truck's reactive five-speed automatic transmission.Â
Â
This model year also comes standard with rear-wheel drive, but four-wheel drive is available for added traction in all seasons and conditions. Steering is managed by a power rack and pinion system, which is paired with four-wheel disc brakes with ABS. Even under heavy loads, the Armada remains competent and composed with great on-road manners that soak up major bumps with its double-wishbone front suspension and load-leveling rear suspension.Â
