Looks like a Ford from 10 years ago.

That front end is terrible. Easily the worst of the full size segment.

It doesn't look much different than a ford front end.

2003.


They were supposed to release a new Titan a few years ago essentially as a rebadged Ram, but that fell through so Nissan had to start from scratch.

It looks like a Chinese knockoff of an American truck.

Uh, what?





Other than being roughly the same size, they don't look particularly similar to me.

Good looking truck, but I want the new Colorado.

First thing I thought was "looks Fordish".

Not bad, but I don't like the nose. Same with the tundras, they look to stubby for me.

Said this in the Outdoor Board thread:

It's exactly 1/3 Ram, 1/3 Ford, and 1/3 Toyota.

I commend them for putting the 5.0 diesel in there, but I'm failing to see what niche an HD half ton Titan fills.

It's overkill for a half ton.

The fuel mileage should be pretty excellent towing and unloaded though and it will pull like hell if they geared it right.
