Nissan was co-funding the Cummins engine development program way before Fred was put at the helm at Nissan but I'm sure he ensured the cummins was put under the hood with the gimmick badge on the front fender. I think the biggest road block for Nissan is it's a foreign brand truck and most truck owners are very conservative and prefer domestic brands. Having said that most HD ram owners don't even know their truck is made in Mexico and that ram is now a foreign brand.
Just when I thought you had pulled your head out of your backside you post this gibberish :R
1, DamnLire paid for that engine as it was commissioned for the Ram 1500. When they walked away from it Cummins sued them and got paid for all of the RD work! Nissan may have paid to bring it up to the currant emission standards but the original 5.0 was designed for the Ram 1500. Fuel prices scraped that idea.
2, Most Americans could give a rats behind where anything is built.
3, FCA yes is run by a Italian controlled multinational corporation but it is still considered an American Car Company. FCA has it's headquarters in Auburn Hills Mich not Italy.
4, If ANY buyer can not figure out where their vehicle is made then maybe they should not hold a drivers license!
