What feature in Nissan trucks aids in maintaining a specific speed when towing?

The feature that aids in maintaining a specific speed when towing in Nissan trucks is the Tow/Haul Mode. This mode optimizes the vehicle's transmission settings to enhance performance while towing heavy loads. When Tow/Haul Mode is engaged, it adjusts the shift points and enhances engine braking, which helps maintain a steady speed on inclines and declines, reducing the need for constant acceleration or braking. This is particularly important when towing, as it provides better control of the vehicle and improves safety by preventing the transmission from shifting too often, which can occur when normal cruise control is used.

Cruise Control, while helpful for maintaining speed in general driving conditions, may not account for the additional strain and variations in torque when towing. A Locking Differential is primarily a traction feature that maintains power to all wheels, enhancing grip on slippery surfaces but doesn't directly manage speed when towing. The Payload Management System assists with distribution and monitoring of cargo weight, but it does not actively maintain a specific speed while towing. Thus, Tow/Haul Mode is the specialized feature designed specifically for this purpose.
