Ok I’ve had enough of u ppl bad mouthin the dodge ram 09-10 buddy they are the truck of the year best engine in any market ( do the research ppl hemi is top ten best engines in the world) Name me one thing a ford150 is better then a ram or even the Cummings deisal! Most of u ppl should know Chrysler is out of bankrupcy fiat has a deal wit us cause I am an employee of Chrysler I know our shit! In 2012 toyota and Nissan are gonna beg on their knees to Gm and chrysler cause look now ppl Gm is building Toyota tundra Deisal their diesals are dermaax ! Dodge is givin th attritbutes to Nissan Titan! Anyone who chooses a Asian truck or a ford don’t know shit bout trucks! Remember 390 hp and 407 lb of tourqe and tows 11k Not even a Tandra stands a chance against the new dodge! U Guys don’t know nothin just wait and see ppl! Dodge is already ownin the trucking market as we speak! Freakin haters dodge owns!!

Muddboggin07 – I have to say that I think the Titan is going away. Dodge and Nissan canceled their deal, and I doubt Nissan has spent any time or money re-designing the truck. Perhaps they continue to make the same design, but I can’t imagine them being competitive without a major reinvestment.

well, the new ram is nice, and only time will tell how these “new” rams hold up in quality, which i must admit they have been getting their stuff together(marginally) especially when compared to 1991-2001 models and the interior is a little more top notch dare i say, plus if titans come out with the lifetime warranty as well, it may also help out. Keep in mind how this is nissans first shot at a full size truck in the U.S. remember how toyota and dodge started out, a long time ago but no one gets it right the first time. This may help the titan if and only if they use there own TITAN interior and exterior but just the dodge powertrain, and they will have to market it much much more, i rarely see any titan comercials now, so… not to mention they will have to compete pricewise with the big three now…

I had a dodge diesel. loved the look and the diesel. gobs of power and great mileage. thing is that it broke down too much. small stuff. not that great engine but traveling at odd hours far from home like I did the wife insisted that I sell it before the warrenty was up. So I did. bought a titan and like the look, love the locking rear dif., ride and fit and finish but hate the mileage. I was exited to hear when dodge was going coil sprung and that a half ton was getting a diesel but knew the wife would never let me get another american car. I plan on getting the titan (dodge) diesel when it comes out but wonder how long it will take to start falling apart like all of our american made cars have. she will then know it is not a nissan but another one of our American made pieces of

Nobody will miss the Titan. It has been a piece of crap all along. Nissan would greatly benifit if the new Titans had a HEMI. Guess you must admit the old addage, “If you can’t beat them, join them”.

charlie – My guess is that Nissan is out of the full-size truck market. They recently announced they’re going to wait to bring out the Ti-Ram until the market improves…that usually means it’s all over. Long live the Titan.

I am absoultey disgusted on the new titan becoming a ram. I think the titan has been the top truck the last couple of years. And now they are getting gay dodge engines and crappy ram features. I will never own the new nissan tiram. Absouluety disgusting nissan has done this. Mayb though no one will like it which im sure will happen and they will go back with the old titan. That would be sweet.

ITRedneck – Love that name “ITRedneck” – very good. I would like to borrow it sometime! The point you make about the GMC vs. Chevy is very good, and to be honest it’s always mystified me. The two trucks are identical, but GMC owners usually say that the “GMC parts are better” – BS. A Chevy is a Chevy. Still, it works out for GM. My guess is that with the Titan’s already dismal sales, the “new” Titan won’t be much better. Not only with the Ram be available for less money (at least that’s my belief), but the typical Nissan customer isn’t interested in owning a Chrysler product. GMC and Chevy owners don’t have a reason to dislike each other, but Nissan (who has been making quality cars and trucks for years) owners aren’t big fans of Chrysler products (who haven’t been making quality vehicles for most of the last 40 years). I don’t think this one is going to fly – and I would suggest people steer clear of the new Titan too. The resale value on that truck is going to stink when Nissan discontinues it in a few years.

From what I hear from other Titan owners is that they going to get rid of their trucks but at a reduced cost because of Chrysler taking over it. They loss value and none of them want part of Dodge or Chrysler. Like IT said we will have to wait and see.
