|  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. _________________ '92 YJ 1.5" RE SOA, 2" body, 37" Krawlers, D44 ARB, 8.8 ARB 4.88s, 4:1, Poison Spyder Hi-Steer, On-board Air

| 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  for the poor thing. _________________ "A yahoo made dangerous with power tools"  MARR step up or step out Who me?

| 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.... _________________ Member of the 2009 Board of Directors

| 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. _________________ '92 YJ 1.5" RE SOA, 2" body, 37" Krawlers, D44 ARB, 8.8 ARB 4.88s, 4:1, Poison Spyder Hi-Steer, On-board Air

| 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. _________________ 94YJ Tera low 4:1, 4:10's, HP D44 front locked, 8.8 rear locked, 37" Truxus M/T's, custom spring over front/spring under rear, along with other stuff (Trail rig) 00WJ open/open, lifted 31" MTR's (curbcrawler) 84 Toyota Pickup open front, welded rear, 63" chevy rear springs, propane injection, 37" mtr's, 4.7:1 Tcase 07 FORD E350 SD (TOW VAN)

| 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. _________________ 81 cj7 258 HEI, MC2100,Clifford header,4WDH 4" lift, 33" tires, T-177, D300, 4:10 gears, aussie locker front and back, Toyota axles, Longfield 30 spline chromoly superaxles, BigDaddy rockers,Mastercraft seats, Full cage

| Thanks guys... and Paul, that's exactly what we were discussing at the dealership and it's what made me make a move. _________________ '92 YJ 1.5" RE SOA, 2" body, 37" Krawlers, D44 ARB, 8.8 ARB 4.88s, 4:1, Poison Spyder Hi-Steer, On-board Air
