Been looking into getting a diesel truck. There aren't too many on the market right now as far as I know, but that is why i'm excited to learn more about the Titan.

Looking forward to discussing it with all you guys.

Living in Toronto here.

Welcome!
What are you looking for in a diesel truck?

 

[Forge]

I am hoping to get a combination of capability and good fuel mileage. I have heard that the fuel economy on the Titan isn't that impressive so I am waiting to see what happens with that. I'm also hoping that I will save some money on diesel fuel if its price stays low.

Nice!
What other trucks have you been looking to already if any? Does the new RAM 1500 Eco Diesel interest you?

Does nissan titan cummins comes with manual transmission?

 

[Forge]

I haven't seen anything for sure, just been reading people's comments who say that they would like one. Do the competitors offer a manual transmission, or are they strictly automatic now?

 

[NavyCuda]

I believe the titan will use the ZF-8 speed, which is rated to the ISVs torque and was used in the Frontier-Cummins.

Manual transmissions have to be tested separately from automatics, which would be a significant cost for such a small market share. Especially when just about everyone else has dropped manuals due to low demand. I think Ram is the only one with a manual, but its pretty severely derated.

I wouldn't want a manual transmission in this since automatics these days are so much more efficient and durable, might as well with all the millions they have spend with R&D and testing.
