Show Notes
What's it like to be whisked off to exotic Morocco and given the keys to Nissan's entire global fleet of off-roaders? Guest Chad Kirchner shares his story of scorpions, Titans, Terras, and Patrols bashing through the dunes, and also discusses the differences between the Nissan Navarra and the Frontier pickup that is sold in North America. Benjamin, Sami, and Chad also discuss the 2018 Ford F-150 Diesel and compare it to the Ram EcoDiesel to try and figure out just how frugal the Blue Oval's efficiency-focused truck really is.

For those in North America, that means the Nissan Titan was represented. But also present was the Nissan Navara, Patrol, and Asian-market Terra. The Sahara was a central meeting place for journalists all over the world to see what Nissan was all about.
