I don't claim to know their reasons, but part of the problem is that people buy these with diesel and no clue as to what they are for. If you are regularly lugging or towing heavy loads for hours at a time, then diesel for the win. But most people buy pickup trucks to do the groceries, take the kids to school, and perhaps drive the hour to the lake a few times a year. And they want the diesel thinking it's "cool". Well, it is - it never gets hot enough to work the catalyst and the exhaust gets plugged with soot. Suddenly their dashboard is lit up like the Christmas Tree of Death, and they go dissing Nissan or Cummins on every board imaginable. People are stupid sometimes.

Speaking of stupid, and electric, anyone going to run out and be the first on their block to own the Tesla pickup truck?

Thread derail accomplished.
My input was a lighthearted pun at him wanting them to end production of the Z.
I'm wes dont get me in this pickup garbage mess. I drive sports cars... And we dont discuss EV's round here. That's like being gender #30. Not interested. Lol

I hate even looking st Nissan news. . It's been the same redundant BEE ESS since 2015. It's So boring. But they have no info. They think people get excited with their news style? No we dont.

If they build an Ev, they need to build a gas model next to it and see which one sells better. U know where I'm putting my money!!!

I think I may go back to mazda if the Rx9 comes out though. If it's anything like the Rx7? Itll be nothing short of AMAZING!! But then theres the alfa GTV. I dunno... test drives will tell. I had high Hope's for the Q60. N look at that POS driving trash.

If you are considering the Infiniti Q60 great choice I say quality control is excellent overall and overall a well built vehicle. If the new Mazda RX9 is going to be built by Ford good luck quality will be job#1,000,000. Also the rumored Wankel rotary engine will be hit or miss zoom zoom!

just relax and wait for the next Z. it'll be released in about 2 years. 2022 model most likely.

That'll probably be about when I'll be willing to give up the Camaro.

actually 15 min after i posted that, an article came out saying the Z drops next year.

sooooooo idk maybe my 2 year release is off. no official word yet. i am watching live updates of the show though.

every new model and facelift shown for nissan so far lines up with info i was given months ago so i am a bit optimistic.
