The Nissan Armada is not the first 4WD that comes to mind when we think about overlanding platforms but that makes it all the more interesting. It’s curious that the Armada, much like the Frontier or Titan, doesn’t have anywhere near the same popularity as its Toyota counterparts. It’s certainly not a reflection of its build quality or reliability, which is in many regards comparable. Nevertheless, a quick search reveals a bunch of folks who have turned this luxurious mall crawler into a rugged backcountry rig with rugged builds from M.O.A.B Tortuga and DaGrootX. In addition, we have showcased a small selection of adventure-ready builds including this 2010 Platinum and the Armada Mountain Patrol. Today’s (90,000 miles) 2020 Nissan Armada SL 4×4 has been tastefully upgraded and is offered at a competitive $25,000.
From the Seller:
“This truck has been one of my favorites – and I’ve owned many killer vehicles. It’s priced around AVG retail for a totally stock 2020 4×4 SL, yet comes with all the hard work and dollars already spent! It’s priced to get it off the books and make room for a new vehicle. It has a modest lift that avoids the potential damage and poor performance associated with lifting IFS/IRS vehicles too far (ruined CVs, poor alignment and tire wear, no flex/droop, etc).”
