Don't know how much of this rumor has been disgused, but every since hearing about somebody spotting a heavier version beingh tested in a post yesterday I thought I would search around and find what rumors exist.

In another article in this months Truck Trend magazine that I picked up today, they confirmed that it was reported in a trade paper in Japan that Nissan has signed a deal with Navistar(who makes Fords diesel) to produce a small diesel for an upcoming Titan 1/2 ton and are saying the new engine may presumably be a V6 turbodiesel. Trucktrend is saying that it is likely a 2010 release as is the new Altima diesel.

Just thought I would share

Hooligan, what do you mean by LTD? Long Travel Diesel? Thanks :)

I'd have no concerns about a Navistar (International) Diesel. We have 2 at work, and they are great engines, trouble free. Yes, totally different blocks than a Titan will see, but they have made millions of engines, try to not overly associate Navistar with being bad, just because of Ford's interaction with the application in their trucks. Many finger pointers between the 2, but I trust the new design would be a durable one. I'd expect same HP, much more TQ and especially better economy, the main advantage.
