I bought my Titan in 06 and the trans and engine has held up. I have noticed that I have better throttle response than the others (Dodge, Ford and GM). for what it may be I am Canadian and here it goes. I get over 880 kms for one tank of gas I don't know how many other trucks out there can do this. since this was thread was about 1/2 tons, i don't think that to include 3/4 or 1 tons without the Cummins diesel would be unfair. the mega cab had the most room as far as I know, now I have been known to wrong a time or two but I did stay at a Holiday Inn the other night!!!

I'm with ya Ern...I'm in the Auto industry and I believe that the Japs have the 1/2 ton, non-utility/business class cornered.

3/4 ton is another story. Dodge and Ford got that one tied up unless you're talking fleet vehicles. Then Ford is hard to beat in any class. GM is bringing up the rear in comfort, but has the US OEMs matched in the utility categories.

Like cigars... buy what ya like and like what you buy.

Just about to cross over 60k and no problems so far. I do a lot of offroading during the day (I'm in the construction/engineering business) and during my off hours I'm either working on my house or my cabin (a lot of towing/hauling, some offroading).

I'd say I beat up on a truck as much as anyone could be expected to and its been just peachy....my only complaint is that my yellow lab's fur loves to hang onto the black interior That and the fact that I'm fairly tall (6'4"), have long legs, and wear loggers boots and I often wish that I had an extra inch or two under the steering column. I never notice it when I'm driving, only when I'm stuck sitting in it for long periods.

Good to hear. I like the Titan and was kind of bummed to hear people having issues with them. As far as dog fur, I lucked out with the fabric in my Ranger. Her hair comes right up with the vacuum, no problem. But in the old Caravan I had before it stuck to everything.
