2016 Nissan Titan XD Cummins Payload
Saw my first one in the flesh today. Really had high hopes for this truck. My enthusiasm waned when I saw the payload sticker :( MSRP was $58k.
Forum Discussion
We will just have to wait and see how the common man version of the Nissan XD plays out in its specs.
What will the payload be on a XD with 2wd, cloth seats, basic comforts...kind of the tradesmen trim of the XD? I'm not sure that has been discussed as most of the trucks being delivered or tested now are top shelf models.
I'm still in wait and see mode. Around here the Ram Ecodiesel is doing very well...which surprised me...there is a demand for Diesel powered trucks...how much? We will see...but it's there.
As a side bar question...can these trucks have a reverse impact on the trailer markets?
What I mean, is can these trucks coming to market cause manufacturers of trailers to build trailers that will match capability? Specifically, will we see a reduction in tongue/ pin weight in trailer design in order to align more with the capabilities of these half tons...i.e. A more European design in our trailers? And I'm not just talking about RV's
Thanks!
