Got a new ride!
I've never owned a truck, so figured it was time to find one. Seems it's hard to find a decent truck used with low miles that's not ragged out or costing a fortune. Had a buddy get this one at auction, but clean Carfax and low miles (33k). Seems to have around $5k worth of lift, wheels and tires.

Thanks guys! It also has an exhaust system on it, that make it sound pretty mean.

buddy had one a few years ago, said it was the biggest piece of shit he has ever owned. There wasn't a thing that didn't go wrong on it.
Hope your luck is better than his, because those look really nice

The Titan made it on my search list when I was having trouble finding a Tundra, but it didn't expand my options much.

I've noticed this whenever I've looked at used trucks, as well...I don't get it.

I know the earlier models had issues, but from everyone I've talked to here, their pretty sound. Rear end failures are the only thing I hear problems with.

Cool truck. Congrats.

One of my favorite things about those is the tailgate... much more pleasing to operate than other pickups.
