Besides, as Ghosn already stated, they're not working together on trucks, only small cars (Versa).
Ah, interesting information. I was really sitting on the fence about moving forward with a 2008.5 Titan purchase or waiting for the revised body style and possible new interior.

I think I'll wait until the New York Auto Show in two weeks and then put in an order for a custom build (I'm picky).
