Maybe if Mr Hemicharger had posted facts, rather than opinions, I might not have had to take him to school repeatedly.
Funny how someone mentioned earlier about how bad things were that even Mercedes could not correct it and Mr HemiCharger ignored it.
Though I will say Mel, the Titan was applauded in the heavy duty truck world for being as good as it is. It was considered a class leader.
P.S. I have nothing against Dodge trucks they have been badass back in the day and still are one of the few shinning star parts of that company.

Yea, I should have clerified, I meant the super heavy duty line of trucks, ie dullies that they have not been able to compete with. None of the Japanese brands have been able to pull it off. Toyota and Nissan are both scratching their heads right now. Nissan looks like their done scratchin and have a good solution...partner with Chrysler.
I LOVE the Titan. IMO, best looking truck on the market. Now, add the Rams underpinings and you have an absolute winner IMO. Like I said, it could easily outsell the Tundy.
But here's where I'm mostly torn. As BA as a Titan/Ram would be for Nissan, I think they need to bow out of this race entirely. With the new CAFE regulations, I think them pursuing this is a bad idea. It's only going to totally pull down their average fleet MPG in the wrong direction.
Quote me on this...mid-small size pick-ups are the wave of the future for the US. I know, sounds nuts right now. But see what happens in 5 years.
30mpg boxy ass pick-ups are gonna be the new black.
