I was over at the Titan site.......they have a thread on problems with the rear axles.....there are alot of Titan owners that have bad rear ends and a number of them more than once plus there is a major issue with brakes. I would have a concern with that if I am towing a travel trailer. There is also complaints of premature rust on the inside of the bumpers. If I were a Titan owner, I would be p---ed off. Apparently they are saying insufficient oil in the rear end and are trying larger differential covers to see if they can correct the problem. The only reason I am replying to this thread is that I see alot of Titan owners trashing our Rams when they have enough problems on their own. Yes some of us do trash theirs too. I bought my truck because it suits my family comfortably, looks good and hauls a--!!! It works for what I use it for and has a larger bed than the Titan. I have never had a problem with it other than the weatherstrip on the front doors and with the new revised weatherstrip it has cured the problem completely. As for me....if you can't Dodge it Ram it!!!!

Dodge Rams have had problems for the last 10 years. Nissan is having some minor teething issues. And as we all know, everyone hears of the problems more than the good stories. I have OVER 20K miles, and other than the brake issue, no problems. It runs like a champ.

AS for having major issues at the plant-BS!!! CR's are so biased anyway. BTW-how many Dodge's are on the recommended list-I know the Ram's not. They (CR and the 'swat team') need to visit the Mexicans down in Mexico putting together YOUR Dodge.

The Rams "major" problems no longer exist. The Ram is built in Mexico, AS WELL AS the United States.

Um, the Titan weighs around 5000 pounds, give or take.
How much does a Quad cab Ram 1500 4x4 weigh? About 5200. That's a HUGE difference. =

2005 RWD Titan weighs 4800 lbs, not 5,000... and no where did I say HUGE. Way to put words in my mouth.

If you are gonna talk about racing trucks. You must go with RWD. There is a reason why trucks come in 4WD, and it's not racing.

Titan: light, fast, nice interrior, good gas milage

Ram: beefy, powerful, great design, rugged

Finally: I don't know why you Titan owners are over here at a DODGE site, called DODGEforum.com, constantly trying to tell DODGE owners, that their DODGE is not as good as the Titan. You aren't going to make them think otherwise.

For all the Nissan Titan owners.



MSN's BEST & WORST
http://autos.msn.com/advice/CRArt.aspx?contentid=4023544&src=LP%20pickups

These 2006 models earned the highest and lowest Predicted Reliability Ratings, based on CR's 2005 reliability survey. Models marked with "(2005)" have been redesigned for 2006. Vehicles marked with an asterisk "*" indicate data is based on one model year only.

MOST RELIABLE PICKUP TRUCKS: Honda Ridgeline*, Toyota Tundra
LEAST RELIABLE PICKUP TRUCKS: Nissan Titan , Chevrolet Colorado (4WD), GMC Canyon (4WD)



There you have it... The Titan is the least reliable truck in the world...

Not only that, the Nissan Armada is listed as least reliable large SUV and the Nissan Quest was one of the least reliable minivans. Come on Nissan, get it together. LOL

If you look up the reliability ratings Dodge Ram scores 8-8.9 out of 10 from experts and users.

I used to have a TITAN.Igot rid of it on the 12/10/05.I bought a silver daytona reg. cab.The nissan will run.I think they put all of their money into the drive train,except for that rear end.The squeaks and rattles finally got to me.The dealer service departments of most nissan dealers dont know anything about the trucks that they build.They are also very hesitant about fixing anything.Nissan had better get their act together because word of mouth can make or break a company.

As a Dodge Ram owner/driver/enthusiast people will more than likely discount anything I say as being bias partial to Dodge.....but there is one thing that I am definitly biased about and thats being an American.
With trade deficits and American vs. Japanese making trucks (Surprised Germany hasn't tried yet, they are definitly eating up the high end SUV market) I will always go for an American owned company before I dream of owning a Nissan Titan or a Toyota Tundra. I don't care if the price IS less, or the truck IS faster, or even if it IS more powerful, roomy, or has a chair that massages my nether regions....
When I was 16 I bought my first vehicle. A Chevy S-10 Blazer.....I loved it, and cherish the memories of destroying it with wild fun in high school days. On the back window I had a sticker that read I would rather push a Chevy than drive a Ford.
In this day and age I think we need to be more concerned with taking our hard earned money and putting it into companies who have been building us trucks that are tough, proven and definitly the highest quality, be it a Dodge, Ford or Chevy, Preferably a Dodge.

I know the argument, Nissan is built here in the States and that money is going back to the workers....B.S.
Nissan is like Nike, making shoes in China and exporting them all over the world, getting fat of the backs of a few workers...at least Nike doesn't claim to be helping the American people. Nissan is a wolf in sheeps clothing.

Let's leave truck building to the guys who know how to build trucks.

One more thing....I know what some of you are saying....But some of those trucks are built in Canada and Mexico. True, but remember this, Canada and Mexico BUY our trucks too. How many Fords, Chevy's and Dodge's are running around in Japan, Korea, China.....Well, while stationed in Korea I traveled to Japan and Hong Kong....and I missed my trucks.

Just some food for thought.........If you've read this far....thanks for hearing me out.
