A year or so ago many on rv.net professed the Ecodiesel as DOA due to payload, weight, price, and various tow tests.

Deja vu?

I don't think its DOA, it just isn't what I hoped it would be. I ended up buying a Ram 2500 this summer because I needed the extra payload that my Tundra just didn't have. I think a lot of people were hoping that the Titan would offer a little better fuel mileage, a little better towing experience and a little better payload.

I am sure there is a market for this vehicle, but its not as stout a vehicle as we had hoped.

There is a difference between a worthless vehicle and a vehicle that doesn't meet a specific need...

And, that difference is exactly my point. Those who professed the Ecodiesel DOA (i.e., worthless) forgot or ignored the fact that not everyone has the same needs and wants. After more than a year of production, and scrutiny, the Ecodiesel is far from DOA.

Fast forward to the Nissan XD Titan Cummins.

Deja vu? I lean toward yes.
