I am reminded of this constantly, especially when I see old posts come up and replies from guys (and gals) on here that are long gone. I've been here about 12-13 years I guess, so pretty close to the beginning, and it is quite odd to say "Oh yeah, I remember that guy, he was pretty cool, I wonder what he's up to these days?" It's like being some kind of Armageddon survivor. I guess that's just the way it is, as the Gen 1 Titan took many years to get a makeover, and never sold that well anyway, so people just dropped away over the years, but it is still a strange feeling.

I suppose what I find odd about it is that I'm still a "member" and participant in other car forums, even if I don't have those vehicles any more. After a while, an online forum is something like a community, and I never saw any reason to just not post or participate any more because I sold the vehicle.

Oh well. That's my philosophical rant for the day :)

Well I'm brand new and I think that it's awesome all of you are still in here! All of us new blood could definitely use your sage advice friends! Anyway, you're only as old as you want to be right? Have you all ever met up in person since you've all been around so long? Certainly some names are starting to look more familiar than others for some of you?

This is just my opinion. I think the first generation Titan's will have a cult following. It might take several years, but I think it will happen. We all know this is the truck that changed the game back in 04. I wasn't able to buy a Titan in 04 but I knew I would own one some day. This is for the original Titan members that paved the road for us. Titan brothers and sisters forever.

Been here over 12 years and still have my 12 year old Titan with 41,000 miles. Still has lots of life left in her.

Figured out the issue with the email, Fishn - they made a simple typo. If you drop the S from Trucks, and use:
TexasNissanTruckMeet@gmail.com, it goes through and there is a bunch of good organizational info that includes up to 15 RV spaces for long distance attendees. Looks pretty well organized!

Thanks, again, Fishn - small speed bump, but you got me pointed in the right direction!

Cheers!

I still like this place. Not that I post much anymore, I'm still here.

Checking in... I don't post much anymore. I do browse the forum weekly though.

Pretty much have not done any mods or made any changes lately.

Also haven't had any strange issues (knock on wood).

So I haven't been on much.

I'm up to about 130k on my 2005 right now. Nothing on the new market appeals to me, and I cannot afford a new truck anyway. Really would like to add some Air Bags this spring. Also really like the new Bronze wheels from Method. I think that they would look pretty sick with my Red Brawn truck. Really don't want to dump money on wheels though, but need to do something to make my old truck feel new again.

Thanks, Matt.

I poked around on the Texas regional forum, and it looks pretty dead. Last post regarding the 2016 meet seems to be the one where the Wilson's handed the organization for 2016 to the forum, but it doesn't look like it was picked up after that.

Anyone still out there working toward a meet? I'll ask on that forum...

Pale Rider, there are lots of good Titan meets out there if you happen to be in one of the main areas, of couurse the MVP meet in Carlisle, one in Texas coming up soon think in April,"Nationwide" meet in Vegas in March (but it's pretty much the Cali area owners), one in August in Pigeon Forge, unfortunately they are all about 1000 miles away from me.

@palerider....lol at the vk nation comment....from what i've heard that place is run by a bunch of jackasses who don't like anyones opinion but their own. also maybe the premium section is still poppin? most of the OG's are premium members.

so I`ll ask this question to the forum elders:

Congrats first of hanging in there so long. It must have been awesome to be here in the beginning and when this place was building up steam and growing through the whole aftermarket growing pains. I come across many many threads of good tech that this place lacks now presently. And see many many were banned. it looks like the place was groovy back in the day and now IMHO has become a mediocre forum just like others with the constant tire, lift, what fits, LED, how do I install headlight bulbs etc etc. I see very few people left who actually post tech and engine mods.

so my question is: what happened? why were alot of the former members banned?

There were a lot of chest beaters back in the day, that's for sure. And the mods here have always been pretty decent people, but there was one guy that also just liked banning people. He's not here any more, either, and those days were like the wild west, but he even banned me for a week for something. I was so insulted I didn't come back for a year or two; I've never been banned for anything on any forum, ever, and it's not in my nature to call anyone out online so I doubt I said anything on here.
