Fellow Titan enthusiasts:
After reading that crappy thread about how some Hemi ran a 13.7 second 1/4 (who cares?), I thought "Hmmm, there's gotta be something better to read about than this drivel". After a bit more reading, I realized that there is lots of good information scattered 'round TitanTalk, and that it would be neat to organize it in a way that was truly helpful for all members and guests.
I propose that we start a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) forum. This was done on TundraSolutions, and it was invaluable. The Tundra FAQ included things like:
1. Vehicle specifications
2. Maintenence intervals (quick reference)
3. Member-designed fixes to common problems
4. A concise listing of typical "problems" that owners had
5. A listing of TSB's
There are a lot of others, but that's a good start.
I know most of #1 and #2 can be found in your owner's manual, or probably at the Nissan site, but having it here, in a neato summary is useful for quick reference by Titan owners and potential Titan buyers alike. On TundraSolutions, #3 included things like how to change the rear seatback angle, how to install your own console-mounted subwoofer, how to add additional sound insulation, etc., etc. #4 is useful when you go to your dealer and the dealer says "never heard of that before" You present them with a printout from TT and they go "ok, we'll look into it". #5 helps you keep up with recalls, and keeps you informed of things that need fixing.
I also think it would be neat to assemble a list of typical "delivery" problems that owners have, so that future owners could print that list, and check over their soon-to-be new Titan before it leaves the lot. Some examples would be the over-tightened overhead console, bubbling bedliners, tailgate trim that's loose, etc. Wouldn't that be nice to have when you take delivery of your new 30K + truck?
I would be happy to volunteer to be the editor of this forum.
Anyway, let me know what you think!
