No Dodge in the Nissan garage...

"No, no it doesnt have a HEMI in it but so what!"
Last year Nissan entered a joint production agreement with Dodge for the next generation Titan trucks, Dodge would supply the rolling chassis including the HEMI and Nissan would wrap it up with the Titan body and interior. Thankfully (or maybe not depending on your view...) the Dodge boys done went under and had to be rescues by the Italians who are more concerned with getting things in order before they can sell product to others. Part of the agreemant also included the sale of the Nissan built small cars (read: Versa) to Dodge for sale in South America which will also be discontinued now. The company press release can be seen here. I for one thought the Titan was an awesome freshman attempt and I hope they continue to improve on an already great truck, I believe it really can be a contender to the reining blue oval king!
