Thinking about “my” use of vehicles.
If I’m going long distance, fuel economy is important, and I hear that the 3.0 shines there.
If payload or towing has value, I’d personally step up to something 8 lug. A long bed isn’t as handy if the payload capacity of the truck doesn’t support it. I’d...
We had a few local dealers that were refusing to take the 22+ Tundras in on trade at all. No kick in the balls lowball offers, but rather we don’t want it at all.
That was enough to discourage me.
I’ve had three Titans. Loved them all. Enjoyed an Xterra and a frontier previous to those. An old Nissan Pulsar fueled all the love I had for Nissan. What a great reliable car that was.
But…
No local dealers in rural America. The dealer I had 60 miles away was NOT helpful. The next closest...
Bummer, but I get it. I mostly just lurk here anymore having had the same photo issues.
I assume I’ll find you over on ride reports.
Safe travels and thanks for posting as much as you did!
For whatever reason, I think of Chili when I see the show “Rust Valley Restorers”. They seem like a fun bunch…as did Chili.
I enjoy keeping tabs on extended family using Facebook, but it’s almost useless for finding technical information.
07-09 were the only ones that didn’t have the AFM. I’ve got an old 08 creeping up to 200k. Broken manifold bolts were a chore, but no major issues. I fully expect the transmission to go before the engine
I’m not surprised. The factory setup has rubbed the mudflaps on mine since new. I did an oil change today and ditched the mudflaps. I noticed an incredible amount of corrosion on the battery terminals. Especially for a 2023 with only 13,000 miles. I’ve been reading about issues with the smart...
After your reply on FB, I drove past a radar speed sign and my speedo runs 2-3 mph fast on the factory 265/60R20. You may actually be closer to accurate than I am now.
Where did you source the steelies?
Is this for your new XD? It was my understanding that a 17” wheel on an XD can only be steel due to caliper clearance issues.
Definitely following along as it looks like a great size.
The XD sits a bit taller and I haven’t had an issue yet with ground clearance here in the Black Hills. The trailer is always the limiting factor when the two are combined. I will definitely drag it farther than I should to get that secluded spot. Turning is fine for me but Mrs. Plumber...
It might be time for the XD. Definitely a more thirsty option but it takes and handles the extra weight so nicely. I thought about tow mirrors for our small titan but honestly can’t see using it with the 8.5x16. Yes it will do it, but like you say, it’s a touch too much. I’d rather get a 6x12...
I’d been shopping them and have found dealerships near me had several from a rental fleet that had not had their oil changed(or documented an oil change) in almost 60,000 miles. Pulled the dipstick on one and sure enough…black as night. The prices were excellent but the condition of such a new...
There are some great prices on Nissan Titans right now. 5 year 100k bumper to bumper warranty as compared to a 3/36 for domestic. I personally thought I’d like to have one. My wife loved it so I actually bought two of them. A regular one for her and an XD for myself (which might put you over...
Did I see you on Facebook asking about an XD? I definitely saw your truck. I love mine. I love my wife’s shorty Titan too, but it’s definitely not as capable as a truck. I haven’t done a thing to them, except remove the Titan boxes and under seat storage boxes. Both were kinda goofy and...
