Given that they’re now available with Cummins diesels, it’s at least not completely insane. Maybe 95% insane ....

A healthy reminder that non-car people have internet access too!

I mean, it has Cummins and it wouldn’t be the first time a Japanese brand sold a dodge pickup:

I’m genuinely curious if the average new car buyer has even the slightest idea about platform sharing, rebranding, etc.

The new Titans (at least with the diesel) are quite good. I did significant time behind the wheel with one this summer when my buddies and I drove to high plains in CO. Pulls really nice and rides superb too.

My friend also had pretty significant savings off MSRP on his. Albeit he got the top trim.

Reminder: It was going to be Ram, people never forgetti.

The second-generation Titan was to be a lightly reskinned, rebadged version of the Dodge Ram, but those plans fell through with the 2008 worldwide financial crisis.

Fair. I drove the old one and it was pretty long in the tooth for a 2015 vehicle. Hopefully I’ll find a chance to try out the second gen

Pretty much, yeah. I mean, I’m sure there’s a ton of people who know nothing of Cummins, except for the badges on Dodge trucks.

I mean. To be fair, the question “Is a Lexus ES350 a toyota?” has an answer of “uhm. maybe?” so its not like its a totally insane question for the layperson. Maybe they thought Cummins was owned by dodge or something.

Fun true fact: the second-generation Titan was always MEANT to be a badge-engineered RAM, but the partnership fell through. And hence, the New Titan.

That of course came about when Nissan was considering rebadging Dodge Rams instead of redesigning the Titan.

They decided to nix the idea and continue to do the Titan in-house.

Were Dodge and Nissan supposed to share a half ton platform at one time? Maybe before the Fiat situation? I seem to remember reading something along those lines....

A Nissan Titan tried to run me into oncoming traffic on my way to work last week in the Miata. I think that’s the first time I’ve actively thought about a Nissan Titan ever.

It gets worse than that. One of my best friends insists that a Crosstrek isn’t the same an an Impreza hatch with a factory lift.

If you ever feel like spending hours trying to fit a large item into a small place, I recommend finding an old firetruck or train horn and mounting it behind the radiator. You’ll need an air compressor in the trunk too.

Haven’t done mine yet, but it’s sitting at home and the one time I tested it I almost had a heart attack. Finally a way to show them damn trucks

That’s what it sounds like. Certainly seems like a strange pairing now doesn’t it?

I’ve owned two modern-ish Subarus and even I don’t know where the models overlap anymore...

I do like the new light blue offered on crosstreks.

If it was a long-term car I’d definitely upgrade the horn. At this point though, the rust is too far advanced for me to even consider investing in the thing beyond the bare necessities.

Although in fairness I only this week realized my Outback has DUEL EXHAUST PIPES. Which is especially strange since they terminate well before the bumpers so no extra sTyL3 points...

I mean, it’s not even a platform thing. The Crosstrek is *physically* an Impreza with a lift and some cosmetic deviations.

I think Impreza’s must trigger a memory wipe function in my brain because I can’t for the life of me think of what they look like.

Try a Crosstrek that’s been lowered. BAM.

If I could get that blue on a new Outback I would probably make a very bad financial decision and trade in my ‘13 for one. Also, why the hell are the WRX and/or BRZ not offered in the orange that can be had on the Crosstrek?!
