Hey folks. I'm new to the forum here. I didn't see a proper section to drop a line and introduce myself, so I figured why not kick things off with my fellow Nissan guys and gals.
I've always had an interest in overland and 4wd exploration in general, but only recently have I considered building my truck out for it. I've referenced this site quite a bit for various things, so I figured why not make it official? No more lurking for me!
As I said, I have a 2010 Nissan Titan Pro-4X. I've named him Snoopy, for various reasons, mostly because he's all black and white, like Snoopy from peanuts. Also because we explore every hidden trail and back road together any chance we get. Any other Titan guys or gals on here?
Anyway, I figured I'd turn this in to a sort of introduction/build thread. I'm going on two years in November with my Titan, and it's come a long way since then. When I purchased it, all it had was a (fairly poorly done) lift kit and a set of 35 inch muds on 20 inch wheels. Even so, I fell in love with it. I've always been partial to Nissans, and wanted to upsize from my 2007 Tacoma Double Cab (2wd), so I pulled the trigger.
These are a few pictures of the first couple of days after I brought it home. I'm kind of going to be jumping from day one, to present day so it's hard to see the actual progress, but I put a lot of work in to my truck.
That being said, my (overland oriented) goals for the future are:
-get another hard camper shell
-roof rack on thule tracks, with 360 degree LED lighting
-RTT (digging the tepui autana sky)
-relocate full size spare to a hitch carrier
-install OBA
-spare fuel cans mounted in utilitrack
-generator in bed
-I'm sure I'll think of more
At any rate, glad to be a part of the forum here! Hope to give and gain some knowledge to/from you all.
