I think this will tow my junk a little better than the Pathfinder. I couldn't resist the deal - they were giving these trucks away. $11,000 under sticker price and for what I saved I decided to get a 60 mos. 100,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty which was also discounted $500! Back in debt I go.

nice, its not a ford but at least your bumper wont be dragging on the ground like the path finder. Every time I saw your jeep behind the path finder Sad for the poor thing.

I know...she lived a tough life and I didn't want to have the BIG repair bills that would have been inevitable.

Another reason we should plan one of those trips we keep talking about and than backing out of.... Lets put the Titan to the test...


Grateful Red should be getting a new tow rig soon too....

Another reason i got the titan...the pathfinder wouldn't have enjoyed a haul to tellico. I would have been stopping to refuel every 180 miles and then once i hit the mountains i'd be looking for the nearest trans shop.

Why is it every time I accept the fact that my tow rig is a van someone else goes out and buys a cool truck. Congrats on the sweet ride I'm sure that will do much better than the pathfinder. Maybe one day I will get a better tow rig.

thats a nice truck Nick. A guy in our shop father got one $35,000 sticker got it for $22,000. Yes they are giving them away almost. In two years you will have to pay full sticker for a full size truck due to they are cutting way back on making them. You will not be able to find one.

Thanks guys... and Paul, that's exactly what we were discussing at the dealership and it's what made me make a move.
