Sounds alot like a troll but the Titan is not all it's cracked up to be. The interior is as cheap and plastic looking as you can get. The radio and climate controls look and feel like a cross between something from a kids Cozy Coupe and a toy from a gumball machine. Suicide doors are a pain in the ***, even Dodge ditched them in '02. Exterior styling is as bad as it get's IMHO. Toyota, Nissan, Honda may all build a reliable vehicle but their styling just plain sucks. Slabs and angles, to be built as cheaply as possible. And Nissan still carries that old stigmatism with it, if you own one your queer.

The Titan is a small truck. Just cause they call it a full size truck doesnt make it so. For that matter the Honda Ridgeline is suppose to be a full size truck. The Titan is a crossover pickup for the import SUV owners. The Ram would be way too much vehicle for such people that are not use to driving a big truck.

I don't know if I would go that far - the wheel base and cab room is a lot bigger than a mid-size or 7/8th truck. I don't like Titans either, but they are more of a truck than a Ridgeline or Tundra.

I dont mean to be rude, but if the Ridgeline is the best that Honda can do for making a truck, then my advice would be...don't. That piece of sh*t doesnt even come with an optional V8, if a V8 isnt offered then its not a real truck. I dont care what you say, but real trucks haul, tow, transport, pull, and push and you cant do that with a 4 banger, I-5, 6er or anything less than a V-8. I cant stand all of the journalists that rave about how much of a nice vehicle it is, it has no *****, no ability, no pedigree, no class, no refinement, and no working potential, the same can be said for the Nissan Frontier, Chevy Colorado, and Ford Ranger, i cant stand it when people come home with a vehicle that has one of above mentioned engines and they say "Hey, I just bought a truck" IT'S NOT A TRUCK WITHOUT A V-8 OR MORE!!! I hate people who argue that they have real trucks when our beasts here with Real Engines can out tow, out pull, out haul, and out class them for miles. People on this forum with the V6 rams and dakotas dont need to worry, V8's are offered in those vehicles so they are real trucks, i'm talking where anything less than 8 cylinders is the end of the line. I drive a Hemi, it chugs gas, hauls ***, and has a thorough-bred pedigree, i wouldnt trade it for the world. Mopar or No Car, leave the rice back east.

What about a Cummins Turbo Diesel? 5.9L I-6 tuned to make 800RWHP and 1000FT/LBS of TQ?

thats an optional motor for the Ram, which is a truck that has V8's on the platform. I was talking about all forms of the truck, the Ram in all forms can have a V8, so the Cummins vehicles and other variations are part of a platform that offers a V8, the Ridgeline doesnt offer a V8 in any form, neither do the Chevy Colorado or Nissan Frontier. The Ram is a real truck and the Ridgeline is not, thats what i meant.

See, I'm british and i can still appreciate the value of muscle, diplacement and power. I've always had a soft spot for American Muscle, especially and almost exclusively Mopar. I dont care about the fact that my truck chugs gas...back home in England, gas is $8 a gallon so i cant complain, its cheap to me here! I'll never sell my truck, i'll drive it til it dies.
