Nissan Profitable Again

If they went out of business 98% of Americans wouldn’t even notice.

My sister in law has a 2017 Rogue 7 passenger. It has been trouble free for them now with 175k miles since new.

There is nothing they like about it except reasonable fuel economy, reliable and can hold 2 extra passengers in a pinch for car pools they do.

I LOVE it. They overlook features/attributes of a car because it lasts a long time and does its job. I'm like that.
I don't care about toys and things....just make the car go.

I might be the minority on the Titan, but I feel it's one of Nissan's better products. Yes fuel economy isn't as good as some competitors but also not that bad actually. It is dated though and could use a redesign, but sounds like it's going to be killed off anyways which is unfortunate they could have done something there!

Agree and it is a shame. IMO, the Titan and Frontier are two of the best vehicles the company every made.

I know a couple people that have them and thought they were great, but its a tough market to break in - a lot of existing brand loyalty not to mention the big 3 have countless options where Nissan has 1 powertrain and a couple trims.

They need to do something different. They tried with the Cummins Diesel but no one bought that either.

I would have said a really basic truck with a unbreakable drivetrain for cheap - like my 2nd generation Frontier, but they seem to be going the other way instead.

That's one of the reason the Nissan faithful love them. Its like cheering for the underdog, or taking your own path.

Hertz, Enterprise and Uber certainly helps with Nissan’s bottom line.

IMO, Nissan can flex their tech muscles and they’ve proven they can make niche cars(Z, older Maxima, Silvia/240SX, President/Cima/Fuga - sold here as the Infiniti Q45/M, Skyline/G3x and GT-R) and a solid truck(Frontier, 720). But they haven’t cracked the recipe for mass-market cars - the Altima was probably their best attempt.
