I know that Nissan will do the right thing. I think i would like to see a nismo edition tho.. with all the additions they put on the nismo frontier. that would be awesome!  |
I don't know where your getting your info. from on the Powerstroke 6.4, but it is the worst of the three diesels in fuel mileage, they've experienced serious regeneration problems with it, and recent dyno tests done by an independent P.U. magazine found that the 6.4 Ford Powerstroke was way below the 6.7 Cummins and 6.6 Duramax in H.P. and Torque, although it is advertised to have similar stats to the Cummins and Duramax.
It was nearly 100 H.P. and 100 ft.lbs. lower than the Cummins and Duramax that were all compared on the same independent dyno.
I'd be really relieved if Nissan's Titan ends up with the Cummins of the the three engines. Its the only diesel of the three that has met the 2010 upper tier CAFE smog requirements too.
The Cummins is the only diesel of the three that has a medium duty rating as a diesel engine. The other two........are considered light duty rated.
Major tear-down mileage for the cummins is much higher than the Powerstroke or the Duramax too. That means your Titan's body will rust away before that Cummins needs major work.
