This rumor has been reported from more than one source. The sales numbers are NOT ENOUGH for the model to sustain itself regardless of what power trains, parts, etc., the Titan may share with other models. It will be discontinued within the next two years. I'm still trying to decide if I would buy one if it was announced-and a Titan could be acquired for a bargain basement price (at a 10 to 15 large discount from MSRP). A large-unmolested V8 (i.e. without cylinder deactivation) does have some appeal. And a very small cash difference between my current truck and the new one.
