Starting with the 2016 model year, Nissan is building its new Titan turbo diesel engine at the Cummins Engine Plant in Columbus, Indiana. Columbus is a town of about 40,000, just 45 miles south of Indianapolis.

The new 2016 Titan XD is already in showrooms, and based on what local dealership are saying, this new Titan is selling very well.

Cummins is an engine manufacturing company with $19.2 billion in revenues for 2014, employing 54,600 employees worldwide.

Not only has Cummins been a profitable company for over a century, it has enriched the city of Columbus both financially and culturally.

This writer along with other members of the Texas Auto Writers Association (TAWA) had the opportunity to tour the new diesel plant last fall.

It combines outstanding touring and hauling capacity.
