I think the greatest success for Nissan and Toyota would be in a midpowered 2500-3500 pickup. Offer it for 45-50K nicely loaded and they would sell. Now the mpg, capacity and money make sense together.
A mid powered unit as you describe would probably tow my fiver ok. But I think your suggested price is too high. My new 3500 D/A, nicely loaded was just $41k, so I wouldn't pay 45-50k$ for a less capable 3500 unless it got 2X better TOWING mpgs. Which would be 22 mpgs towing, not going to happen. People are hoping for a 'silver bullet' tow vehicle and there won't be one.
You got an outstanding deal. I have a gas 3500 coming, its a totally loaded LT and it is more than 41K.
