Trouble with a Titan XD
This is the worst review that I have seen so far on the Titan diesel. I hope that it is an isolated case: http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/2016-nissan-titan-xd-long-term-test-review

Really... Cummins Quality?
This is a grid heated truck, so it takes a while to start, but no glow plugs to fall in and get munched on by the motor.
Cummins Cold Start -37C
At worst, maybe it's a 5.0 issue. Just like the Ford 6.0 had issues. No need to paint with a broad brush and call all Cummins motors crappy.
Just to be fair, Ford's 6.7 has excellent cold startability as well
Ford -40 Cold start
Again this is a Titan XD thread and the engine is a Cummins. My comments are very specific to this particular cummins engine. And the 5.0 uses ceramic glow plugs.
The problem with many consumers is if they see a cummins badge on the side of the fender they automatically think of the historical cummins reputation. That in itself is a problem.
