    Maybe it's for a reason.

    I have an unbiased opinion as I have owned, a Jeep, 2 camaros, a titan, a tacoma, a f150, a mustang, a sonoma and a couple other randoms.

    I'm dissing Nissan and I drive one. I love the truck but I will never give Nissan another penny after I get rid of this one.

    Oh, Have you heard about the IPDM relay going bad. Apparently it's in all the Nissan trucks and Suvs. Its a relay board that controls all the other relays. It actually happened to me. A simple $12 relay fixed it from me but it took alot of work to track it down. Nissan won't sell just the relay and you have to buy the whole module from them at like $250+. This has been going on since 2004ish and they just now decided to put out a recall on it...almost 7 years late. It affects probably close to %50 of the engines.

    They put the same auto transmission that's behind the little 350z motor that they put behind the Titan...which is a time bomb. The rear ends are Dana 35hd which is basically out of a Jeep wrangler...another time bomb.

    Nissan has no intentions to fix the rears or trans.


    Here's a little Ford love for you.

    Ford has a known issue with their F150 engine. A number of different Ford mechanics and different Ford dealerships told us that there are not enough threads to secure the spark plugs in these millions of Ford trucks. So at around 100k miles they start spitting out spark plugs. They have even made a special part to fix it, but they are not accepting responsibility for a flawed design. So basically you cannot expect a Ford engine to last over 100k miles.

    And another.

    Truck broke down, am told it needs a need head on engine because it blows out it spark plugs. $3,500.00 for a new head. Went online a Known design flaw on Fords part. No recall. Consumers paying daily for Ford's neglect. On going problem for over ten years. Please help. Class action? Small independent contractor, self employed can't work w/o a truck.

    I'm thinking of taking off the badges on the tailgate and putting the old school Toyota and then the retro graphics on the sides, like John's.
    I'm going to try to edit some pics of the truck to see what it would look like.

    Opinions?
