They got a long way to go before they can compete in the US market.

You can bet the sheetmetal is so thin you can dent it with your thumb! eek!
Not a bad looking truck though, looks better than that goofy looking newer Chevy! :rolleyes:
I don't know who designed that ugly ass Chevy but they ruined the Chevy's look all together!! yuk

I am sure that Nissan Truck will be slightly more successful than the Porsche Chayenne (sp??)...the Porsche and the Nissan are pretty sickly (in a bad way) looking

Sorry, 6-ft bed ain't "full size." Park that midget truck next to my F350 4x4 crewcab & see what full size means.

Who DOESN'T make that kind of cab? BFD....
I love how they slid the front seat all the way up to highlight the "spacious" rear seating. Hiring a midget (vertically challenged, whatever) to pimp it also makes it look bigger.
Sure am glad I work in another department than the geniuses in product development.
