Community Project Titan - Pro-4x

harrolldean · 12-20-2007, 02:38 PM

Looks like the guys over at www.pickuptruck.com have started a new project truck w/ a black short bed pro-4x...

This is the artist render they have... looks cool, but not for a 4x4 truck IMO. They definitely need to do a lift:

Wow.....That paint job is pretty ugly

Lets keep this post up to date as they post. I am very interested in seeing what they do to this truck.

Does anyone know how to tell them what we would want to see on the truck? I don't see any links to send in feedback.
I feel silly since I'm the one who posted this originally.

man i wish people would quit linking that. The more people that know the less chance i have to win. lol j/k I dont care for the paint job either.

The truck looks like it should be a slammed 4x2. What kind of morons jacks up a truck and then drives around with low profile tires?

harrolldean · 01-15-2008, 08:15 AM

I agree, why do this to a pro-4x. they should have just used a 4x2. and also, I hesitated posting it, b/c I didn't want anyone entering but me. haha!
even though I may not care for the truck, I can always sell it! if I only made $10 on it, that $10 more than I have now.

The Titan gets a Gale Banks Monster Exhaust:

Thanks for following along on the build!

The picture of the truck is just an illustration to show the paint job that folks voted on. We're not going to touch the suspension or put low pro tires on it. It's a hard-core factory 4x4 and it needs to stay that way.

The truck goes to paint today at Syndicate Auto in San Diego.

Why wouldn't you put a lift on it? Do you have some sort of agreement with Nissan?

Nope. No agreement. We just didn't want to turn it into a monster truck. It's got a pretty good stock suspension and ride height.

No lift? Now I'm really interested to hear the wheel tire combos you guys are going to want us to pick from.

Just curious if the truck actually got painted yet. Pickuptruck.com isn't showing any new updates.

Well, I'll keep entering to win.
