This decision seems to be made based on marketing more than practicality. I maybe can see them wanting to put a Cummins in the Titan, but the same Aisin the HD Rams use? Come on now. That is overkill and will result in less MPG than if they used a more reasonable transmission for a 1/2 ton. This truck is too much like a half ton to be used as a heavy duty and probably will be priced like a 3/4 ton from the big three ie people will buy the HD from the big 3. If they think that this thing is going to find its way into construction sites and oil fields they will be sadly mistaken. I have never seen a titan or tundra being used on a job site unless they are a painter or something. And for us RV people, we are going to still use HDs from the big three. Ram had the right Idea to put a reasonable engine in a half ton platform for good MPG. They knew if people needed more capability they would go to a HD.
Maybe I'm just a pessimist.
I agree 100% and that's why Toyota will never make a 3/4 Ton truck. How many would they sell? The Big 3 has that market sewed up.
