Why on earth would you change rearend fluid after every couple of trips? That is expensive and nuts considering the Titan runs synthetic fluid that doesn't breakdown and has a much longer service life than nonsynthetic. Doing a change in the first 5,000 miles to get rid of any debris that may have worked itself loose during break in I could understand. If your worried about potential failure, stop wasting your money on fluid changes as that is not the problem.
