I've got four mud flaps already. Got the dealer to give them to me for free. What else do you have?

Erik's got the mod bug!!!!! lol

LOL um...... Stock 6 disc cd changer, stock speakers, 18 inch rims and tires from the SE..... Other than that, dont have much else to offer. Oh if you want a dented rear chrome bumper, I can make you a deal. My roommate took my truck Thursday night and backed up into an iron fence. Lets just say the fence didnt move.

My truck came with all that stuff. And I might add I have the rear sonar, so no backing into iron fences for me (hopefully). Man, no one drives my truck but me! What did your roommate say when he brought it back to you? oops! lol

He said that I was gonna hate him. He told me what happened and we looked. I laughed and said he needs to take drivers ed. Told him that if he didnt drive an 05 Dodge Ram and if he was use to driving a real truck, then it wouldnt have happened. Haha, been giving him sh*t all weekend.

I dont really care all that much anymore. I have had bad luck with my vehicles all this year that it doesnt make me mad. Whether its me hitting a 12 inch log in I-35 going 80mph in my Grand Am GT and shattering my 18 inch chrome rims, then a month later, hitting a huge potthole with the same result, I just dont care. haha I know he is buying me a new bumper, so its all good.

AgTitan06 · 10-09-2006, 12:00 PM

At least you didn't dent the steprails! lol

TitanZX · 10-09-2006, 12:19 PM

From looking at those step rails, those look pretty hard to put a dent in, lol.

Anyone have a chrome rear bumper by chance?

AgTitan06 · 10-09-2006, 12:22 PM

Hey, what size socket do I need to put those on. Just want to be prepared right when my hardware gets here! Is it 7mm? Bolts and nuts sames size?

TitanZX · 10-09-2006, 12:59 PM

hmmmm I believe its a 1/2 socket or metric equivilent. You will need that and an extension for the nut part. Its easy. There are studs to mount the rails on. Hold them up and slide them on the rails, tighten the nuts on the studs with your fingers so the rail wont slide off and smack you in the face. Almost happened to me :-D

For the 2007 meet lets add:

- Get a Official Hotel, we can get a group discount with as many people are coming

- Organize a group drive/tour around the destination city

- Organize the food a little better - Need to make a pot luck BBQ buffet kind of thing. All spread out on one table.

- A group dinner (I think all of us Dallas guys made it, and it was fun)

- Big Titan Photograph. - The location was good, would be fun if we could also drive to a spot where we could line up all the Titan's in a single row. The Dam overlook would have worked.

- Contact Nissan Corporate - They might just throw us a bone of some sort, as this would be good free publicity from the local paper, etc.

- Fun Events - A stereo and or exhaust compeition, some games for the kids

- A Schedule of Events - Nothing too crazy, but something that would get everyone on the same page. (i.e. Convoy times going in, leaving, Tour of Trucks, Lunch, Dinner, Cruises, awards, contests)

- Awards - perhaps we could have a few fun awards whether it's just a print out or something we get donated from a dealership/Nissan

- Nametags - I tried my best but I couldn't keep track of all ya'

And I herby officially nominate Elbo as the planner for next years gathering!

- Nametags - I tried my best but I couldn't keep track of all ya'

I hereby nominate Elbo as the events coordinator for next years gathering. Any seconds on that nomination?

Great ideas Elbo. I'm usually good with names, but you're right. even 20 trucks worth of folks is a lot to track.

Great ideas! I'd even like to see us use some of them for our DFW meet.

I second that... I cant coordinate my sales team at work and an event like this at the same time.
lol

Tattoomee · 10-09-2006, 07:01 PM

Problem is...
We tried that already.
Elbo Always has AWESOME Ideas, but his work wont allow him to "follow thru" (i.e.,TNT.Com site)
I vote we allow our Sponsor to do the planning, and We ALL have the Fun!

The wife and I had a Blast. We haven't had that much fun enroute to a destination as we had in our "Convoy"!!

I posted the pics I have at the TNTDFW Yahoo group, and on The T-Spot.
(too big to post here)

thanks for all the compliments guys. I went with a 45 series tire vice 40 since I wanted all the cushion I could get for highway riding and when I finally start to tow the boat I am wanting to buy, I'd like all the sidewall I can get.
