For just $60,520 you can get into a 2016 Nissan Titan XD Platinum Reserve Diesel 4WD Crew Cab and get a better value than a pack of lunchmeats. This configuration of Titan XD weighs in at a minimum of 7,480 lbs (3,393 kg). Yeah, it’s big boned. But that means it’s only a tad over $8.09 per lb! If you buy prepackaged meats and cheese, even on the low side you’re spending $3.99 for a 7 oz pack. That’s $9.12 per lb! So treat yourself to a Titan XD, it’s cheaper than your kids’ sandwich.

I know, you’re still flipping out over the weight of that truck. That Cummins engine seems to add about 700 lbs over the Endurance 5.6L V8. Now with that said, every 3500 series truck in their largest cabs configuration with 4wd, top trim, and diesel engine equipped are about 300lbs lighter (minimum) than that top trim Titan XD. Yeah.

By the way, it’s usually cheaper to purchase your meats fresh sliced at the deli counter. Even the premium meats priced at $10.99 per lb end up being about $4.80 for 7 oz. You are what you eat; buy better, live better.

I'll be quite interested when they start turning up used in a few years. I don't need a new truck, but I'd work the shit out of a good used one. I'd just like to pay less for it than my first house.

I’d settle for an LTL 9000

What if my lunch meat of choice is jamon Iberico?

That name is my favourite part of this truck.

Just get a shell and sleep in the back like a real man.

Still better for you than eating $100 bills. Especially in US currency...

I heard they are making a sport version based on the Warrior Concept to go against the Ford Raptor. It’s going to be called the XP.

I bought a pound of jamon Serrano on Saturday. It was all I ate through Monday. I can't imagine how sad I would feel doing the same to Iberico outside of Spain.

FYI - it was also made intentionally heavy...or rather to have a GVWR higher than 8501 lbs... to slot into the 2b weight class (so its cummins would pass the less stringent emissions requirements)

How the hell did Nissan make these so damn heavy? I mean the 5.0 Cummins V8 is only about 800lbs dry where-as the 6.7 Cummins I6 in the Dodge is 1100 lbs

This should be a QOTD, a Versa costs $11.990 and weighs 2,396 lbs, so it’s only $5.06 per lb.

I have to imagine this thing tows really well.

...This could fix Infiniti’s naming system.

Eh, it’s alright. Reports are that the Cummins is laggy and a little moody and not very fast. It will handle the weight well though
