And i have a couple questions. I have the optional "haul mode button" what exactly does that do? Does it make it not use over drive? And where is the best place to purchace a hitch. thanks a ton.

For the hitch, you can go to titanparts247.com. They have several choices. For the answer to the tow mode button, yes it will allow your transmission to still enter 5th gear. What it does is changes the shift times based on weight and rpm's. This in turn allows greater climbing abilities in lower gears and greater braking abilility due to the lower gear.

thank you very much, I got the titan 4x4 se crew cab with the popular package. it dosent say anything about the big towpackage, but i am assuming since it had the tow button then it dose have some sort of big tow package. I just gotta get a hitch, I saw this particular hitch online http://www.hitchesonline.com/nissian_cl34_titan_04.htm i am assuming it is and will do the same ammount of work the nissan one would.

Hitches are rated by the weight that they will pull and by the weight that can be exerted on them vertically (tongue weight). If you know the weight of the item you intend to pull, you can use that as a gauge as to which one to get. Personally, I would get one that was larger than my needs because the cost difference is negligible. Your truck DOES NOT have the "big tow" package. If it did, it would have come with a hitch. Another way of knowing is your truck would have come with side mirrors that extend out on two horizontal bars. The tow mode feature is still nice, though. I have it, but not the "big tow" package.
