Oh, and that fancy super low emissions Cummins v8 diesel in the titan sucks, poor mpg, reliability issues. If you want a Cummins, get a ram, much better truck and a much better Cummins diesel.

Biggest reliability issue on all diesels is that people don't know how to use them. Especially in the age of DEF. They buy a truck to look cool in their driveway and pick up the occasional sheet of plywood at the big box down the street or take their toys to go play in the country or at the beach twice a year. Then they spec the diesel to save gas (or get the "diesel at the same price as a gas engine" promotion and think hell, if it usually cost more then it must be better). These engines need to get truly hot on a regular basis. Like "pull a loaded trailer 100 miles" hot. Not a 40 minute stop-go commute. They never do a proper regen cycle, and lights start coming up on the dash and the ECU de-rates the output. Those drivers DESERVE electric cars!!!
I think that the biggest reason Ram doesn't get the same complaints is that many Ram truck drivers have spec'ed diesel forever because they actually USE their trucks. Not just fart around in them.
I love my (gas) 2nd Gen Titan. It has some design issues, but the truck itself looks, sounds, and drives fantastic.
