Relax, take a breath, accept that although the Titan is a quick truck in the world of stock trucks, it is not the end-all, be-all of performance machines.

I have a feeling the truck scene is rather tame in your hometown. In SoCal, the abundance of beast like trucks is amazing. A few days ago I watched a scsb silverado that looked and sounded stock launch from a 40+ mph roll and nearly wheelie into a 60mph two wheel burnout. Talk about power.

well then my titan must be special i have the colum shifter things and you can choose man or auto.do you want a pic
