If--and yes, it's a big if, if the NTC's 5.0 diesel can come in with an EPA highway MPG estimate in the low-mid 20's, it'll finally give consumers a clear choice (and awareness) about power and MPG.

I wouldn't be surprised though if the Titan XD came in a bit over 8500# GVWR, making it exempt from posting the EPA mileage ratings.
With all that HD equipment in it, (900# of diesel and emissions control, Aisin tranny, 10.5" rear end, reinforced NV2500 frame), it's going to be a fairly heavy truck.

Or look at the 2013 F150 HD Payload 4x4 Crew cab with a min base weight of 5860#.
How much heavier would the Titan XD be? With all that HD stuff, I would guess at least 740# or a base weight of 6600#. Add 2000# payload and you're again over 8500#.
