2016 Nissan Titan XD Tow Ratings Compared, Apples to Apples, to Light-Duty Pickups

Update: Classification of Titan XD added along with light-duty comparison explanation.

Nissan has released official towing numbers for its soon-to-hit-dealer-lots Titan XD pickup tweener that splits the difference between the light-duty 1500s and heavy-duty 2500s of the world.

We’ve dug into the Titan XD’s numbers, and that of its light-duty competitors, to see just how much more capability you get with the Cummins-sourced 5-liter turbodiesel V-8.

Conclusion: the ratings are a lot closer than you’d think.

ToolGuy I read through the Tesla presentation deck last night and here is my take (understanding that it was late and I ain't too bright):• Tesla has realized it has a capital outlay issue and has put the 'unboxed' process in new facilities on hold and will focus on a 'hybrid' approach cranking out more product from the existing facilities without as much cost reduction but saving on the capital.They still plan to go 'all the way' (maximum cost reduction) with the robo thing but that will be in the future when presumably more cash is freed up.
FreedMike Buy tech that doesn't work right? Okey dokey.
KOKing I saw a handful of em around launch, I think all pre-release or other internal units, and a couple more in the past couple of months, but I think I've seen far more retail Fisker Oceans at this point. Given the corporate backing, I suspect they'll be able to hang around longer than Fisker, at least.
EBFlex “Tesla’s first-quarter net income dropped a whopping 55 percent”That’s staggering and not an indicator of a market with insatiable demand. These golf cart manufacturers are facing a dark future.
MrIcky 2014 Challenger- 97k miles, on 4th set of regular tires and 2nd set of winter tires. 7qts of synthetic every 5k miles. Diff and manual transmission fluid every 30k. aFe dry filter cone wastefully changed yearly but it feels good. umm. cabin filters every so often? Still has original battery. At 100k, it's tune up time, coolant, and I'll have them change the belts and radiator hoses. I have no idea what that totals up to. Doesn't feel excessive.2022 Jeep Gladiator - 15k miles. No maintenance costs yet, going in for my 3rd oil change in next week or so. All my other costs have been optional, so not really maintenance
