I regret to inform you ... Titan (even with the diesel) is not a front-runner in the full-size PU race??? ... why? 1) diesel will be pricey and NOT readily available 2) standard gas V8 seriously needs more HP to be competitive... sorry to burst your bubble ... and I even own a 2014 XTERRA PRO-4X
What a stupid idea this is ... as one gets older you realize there's (way) more to life than fast cars ... and besides with my Civic SI, I've got room for the kids :)...
yeah but ... if Nissan overprices the Diesel Titan (which I'm sure they will) ... it will negate any potential cost savings of the D... Although I have an Xterra... the Titan just doesn't seem a player in the full-size PU arena unfortunately
If it means moving from Torrance So Cal (where the home prices are absurd) to somewhere where all can afford homes and pay less income tax ... seems like a pretty darn good move to me... for all those IT folks at TMC ... I'm an IT guy so let me know if you don't want to move ... I'd be more than happy to take your…
Let me rebut your statement about the Xterra, I own a 2013 Xterra PRO-4X in the 5spd auto flavor ... and all I hear about is how bad the fuel economy is mostly from automotive journalists who think (only) in their own minds they are experts ... not sure what planet I came from ... but I've had many other (real) SUVs…
I'm sure it's the best ever ... but then I write this for all of these advertisers..
anybody remember the VW Rabbit PU?
Oops .... perhaps a major faux pas ... maybe she should worry about "changing the products" rather than "changing the people" ... or maybe the better solution ..."change all the management" (since they seem to have proven to all they are clueless dolts) .... oops
well duh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ... it ain't no 4x4 SUV .... ITS AN AWD STATION WAGON
Please refresh my memory .... why in the world would I want to pay more than $30K for a "Civic"??? ... beats me ... but then I'm old and get confused easily :)
a word of advice or caution ... your choice ... Acura TSX wagon, Honda Accord wagon, Jetta Sport Wagon ... all deceased ...
Wasn't the orginal Ford Taurus SHO (Yamaha design 3L V6 220HP) one of the first "new school" performance sedans...
Sounds all "fine-n-dandy" .... unfortunately Honda will be playing their same old tricks ... limited availability...causing dealers to play their same old tricks ... price gouging ...nothing new here ... Honda has been doing this ever since the introduction of the Honda Civic (CVCC) "5 Speed" in 1975... or the Acura…
1.8T = 170 HP (only) = decent power???... as both of my eyebrows rise...
I have an XTERRA PRO-4x ... call me when you get stuck!
Probably because Dodge has come to their senses and now realize .... yeah this Hellcat is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but in reality not many folks are going to cough up the cash ...leasing is a great option for cars you don't plan on keeping or have a horrendous resale value...
Arghh...does anybody ever "do the math" before making GRAND/SWEEPING statements...e.g. gushing about the 20 MPG combined for the Colorado ... is this really worth gushing over???...the numbers ... 12000 miles per year ... $3.75 per gallon ... 20 mpg combined (Colorado)...17 mpg combined (my "gas guzzling" Xterra) ...…
Yeah but ... this is great for a "onesee-twosee" people who might recharge ... but if they are more than a handful of folks waiting to recharge ... then what??? ..."60 miles of charge in around an hour" .... hmmmm ... so I drive for an hour and then "cool my heels" for an hour ... so two hours of EV driving is…
I think I've mentioned this a zillion times here-and-there ... Car companies are now run by "bean counters" not car aficionados ... hence the term "Break-even-point" now comes into play... e.g. let's pick one ... Mazda Miata Coupe ... this is one of those cars that folks say is cute, but probably wouldn't translate…
