I've been reading about the Titan and I really don't mind it's looks, I like it's looks over the new Ford or new front ends GM stuck on the Silverado's in 03. I could get a loaded Crew Cab (same options a my 00 Silverado) for about 30K. With it's 5 spd trans and the 3.36 gears you get with their tow package, they say it's the same as a 4 spd trans and 4.10 gears. The interior looks nice and is big, especially the rear seats which is what I'm looking for. The 5.6L engine pulls hard and the magazines are showing the 4x4 Titans doing 0-60 in 7.8 seconds and the 1/4 mile in 15.8 seconds. That's better than any other 4x4 they were tested against and I'm sure the 4x2 I would get would be even quicker. Not trying to start some $hit here, just stating what I've read.

I went looking for a Lightning when I bought this truck. Just couldn't see paying more for a ragged out, used truck than I paid for my Sierra.

But I always think where the L would be if I'd dumped all the cash I've got in the Sierra into it.

If I could have any other truck, it would be either a blue or graphite L.

Im a GM guy but the new ford x cab is the first ford product i've seen and thought it looked better than GM. I still don't think i could buy it over a GM truck but if there weren't any, no problem.
