Nissan plans on a 2015 Cummins Diesel. Tundra...maybe???

So what's the point?

ok...ill give it up...ford and toyota are the only manufactuers still retarded enough to make open c channel pick up trucks

ford is the tundra of diesels...get it now?

that is why it is called a diesel tundra...it has a tundra frame under a diesel engine...

feel sorry for the ones who buy super duties

Not a diesel owner, but looks like they could of had them all with the same or close to the same gear ratio, that makes a big difference in performance.

Give me one of each with the keys. I'm going to get in my Super Duty everytime there's something more to do beyond the grocery store, picking up kids or going to the dump. Ive been in both, I know which will suit me best.

yes the diesel tundra would be a great choice to go to the grocery store...it has a soft frame meant for ride comfort that grocery getters like

ford ads always seem to amaze me

they must be a group of monkeys or something

they did the same thing with that "truck engine" eco boost bs...ford has like 4:10 and the silvarado has a 3:53 or something...

and then they rag on the real toyota tundra about having a open c channel chassis and that their f 150 has a fully boxed one

and their "work trucks" have an open c channel chassis too

6.2 f150 is the only work truck ford makes as of today...

Which version of ram was used? The 660,800, or 850lb ft.?

Good point. And it's a 13. Ford is a 15. What will ram have in 15? Just more propaganda that's it. I know personally which one I prefer to own. And that's why I own a ram

Now days it honestly comes down to personal preference. All the big 3 trucks have their pros and cons. All diesels will get the job done just like sleds
It's all personal preference of what you like better.






But why would anyone buy anything other then a duramax;) all kidding aside all the trucks these days are amazing! Can't go wrong with any of them!

It's laughable they couldn't even match up the gear ratios.
Poor Chevy running 373s!
Did that ram have the new Aisln? Who knows
What's up with 2015 already. I haven't even received my '14 1ton

??? Should be in the top 3 ques in the vid that the entire thing is staged to 'outperform' the comp. Just the same as watching the new Chevy HD competition commercials where the Silvy smokes the other brands at everything.

Whats so wrong with a open C-channel frame? What do you think semi trucks have? Do you know how much weight boxing a frame in adds? If they can make a strong C-channel frame, more power to them.
