Its different when your truck fits in between the lines. I had the trailer riding on the other side of the yellow lines just to keep the passenger side from hitting the guard rails and mail boxes lol Yes it was def worth 40.00 they wanted 100 for it lol.

so as for the nissan great work it looks great but something about lowering a pick up 2 or 4wd just doesnt seem right to me. cars i understand but idk trucks are just made to play with i guess

and the load reminds me of a time when we pulled a full size skidder about 10 miles down the pole lines after the tranny went in it. i think the hardest thing what the fact that we had no actual traction because i had to run about 3.5-4g on the tact to keep her moving
but i would have paid the same thats a good solid tramp. not like one of the 150 dollar walmart or sams club those tramps run like 600 or 700

I wish I had some picks of my old 97 Dakota scrap hauler loaded up. I do have the last scale ticket in my hand though, 2200lbs. All in the bed. That's a pretty good haul if ya ask me!

Yeah I know what you mean but some are way over done and look so stupid where this titan is pretty stock. Which its pretty rare too how many titans do you see bagged on 26's like none. All I see is stupid s10 which are over done just like neons. Yeah this is why it was a insane deal we used to have one of those walmart one long time ago and the legs were cheap that they bent these legs are like 3in tubing
