So while working today, heard from a good source about seeing a titan motor heading to Jacksonville.

I'm betting we're gonna be hearing a little more noise from under the hood of that truck soon if you know what I mean;)

not gonna devulge all I know being it's not my place, but hey, I bet it'll happen in time to capitilize in this performance truck market.

Jacksonville is where they make, no? and yeah, its funny how the Titan won the car and driver best truck thing, but the F-150 beat them in some other thing. then they said the only reason the F-150 won is because they have more options and such. what do you expect from a truck that has been around for 60 some odd years. i can only see the Titan going up in supremecy. I like em, my mom likes em, my dad does, and so does my girl. if i could afford a lot of cars, i'd get them each one.

In a slightly related note My father is a service manager for Toyota. Some Toyota engineers came to his shop yesterday with an F-350 Dullie (spell?). They were measuring the lifts to see if it will fit. Toyota will be making a Dullie and it will be diesel. I hope they make it Turbo diesel. Perhaps Nissan will do the same.

Full size trucks were all the American companies had left. Now Toyota and Nissan are moving in. This competition should be good for truck buyers.Did you know the F-150 is the best selling vehicle? Ford sold almost a million trucks last year (OK, like 800,000)...

But, after being around for so many years, Ford is bound to know how to build a good truck.

Nissan has alot of things up it's sleeves I think, and I wouldn't be surprised if we didnt' see some beefed up 5.6liter and also a turbo diesel motor. It would rule either way, none the less.

I don't know the new lightning they have slated for 2006 will be a force to reckon with. I like Nissan a lot but damn the lightning is so sweet.

well, Ford's been at it longer then the rest (not counting the Syclone, but then I guess we'd have to count that damn Little Red Truck too...) so I really don't think they're in the mood to let Dodge or anyone else try and steal thier thunder.

Dodge BARELY made a faster truck then the Lightning.
