Talking I've finally become an owner!

Fast reaction, have to get back to work...
. I could live to be 100 years old and I would never tire of that exhaust note
. It will take me a week to figure out all the electronic controls
. I really like the audio controls on the steering wheel
. I have no idea where the front fenders are
. The rear sonar already saved me from backing over my recycle bin as I back into the driveway
. The freegin thing is big, and really red
. Doing break in miles is going to be a real challenge, I just want to tromp on the gas
. Wow has my driveway gotten smaller
. Those silly little Hummers, I now look down on them... Wait till I see the 1st H3, that will be a small toy
. Since when do radios tell you the name of the artist?
. I have no concept of speed in this thing, none, I was doing 50 in a 30 and I thought I was going slow

I know the way you feel about the speed and the size. I had a lowered cavalier before the Titan and I found myself just crusing in 25 zones at like 45 and not even knowing it. I also felt stupid for the first few days when I couldn't park it right and would have to make 4 point turns in some spots. After a week and a half I'm getting the hang of it now and it just feels natural. The truck looks nice though, congradulations!

Congrats Finally!!!

It took me about two weeks to get used to the girth of the Titan. But then I only get to drive her on weekends and the rare night time jaunt to wherever. Glad you are happy with it, it looks great. What mods are you planning? Enjoy the truck!

Funny Titan story on my very first drive.

Now you need to know I do not see very many of these around here, this is the land of Ford, Chevy and Dodge. So here I am driving along and I see a silver Titan coming towards me, well I'm really excited so I flash my lights at him wondering if I will get a reply. Nope, he does not respond. So as he passes by me I glance at his truck in my rear view mirror. And what do I see? Brake lights! Poor guy thought I was warning him about a cop up ahead.

Congratulations, I've been following your ordeal for months. Glad you finally have her/him/it, the truck, I mean.

Now we need to see a photo of your Titan pulling the Bright Yellow S2000 to the track!
