SUXBNME 1,629 Posted August 21, 2013 What do you think about the nissan titan, do you see alot of them with 200,000+ miles? I don't dislike them, but I put the Toyota in a higher class. No, I haven't seen very many with that high of mileage. I'm not saying that they won't make it, just that I don't see them that often. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MTSkiBum 1,626 Posted August 24, 2013 I ended up getting an '03 Toyota Sequoia with the 4.7 Liter and 150,000 miles. It is the same frame, engine, and transmission as the tundra. I would of preferred to go with the tundra, but I feel like I got a better deal on the sequoia. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gepetto 1,480 Posted August 24, 2013 Enjoy your trucks guys. Shameless opportunity to post pictures of my Grand Cherokee which I love. I did a lot of appearance modifications (mostly replacing chrome with body color painted parts and LED fogs and LED license plate lights). http://www.jeepgarage.org/images/dto_garage/users/7910/3157.jpg http://www.jeepgarage.org/images/dto_garage/users/7910/3153.jpg http://www.jeepgarage.org/images/dto_garage/users/7910/3152.jpg http://www.jeepgarage.org/images/dto_garage/users/7910/3156.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gepetto 1,480 Posted August 24, 2013 Damn...Great looking Cherokee What year is that? Thanks! It's a 2012. Overland (includes quadra lift air suspension, ventilated seats, heated steering wheel, automatic headlamps including automatic low <--> high, automatic wipers, memory seats/radio/nav, panoramic sunroof, power liftgate, 20" wheels) 4x4 with 5.7L V8 Hemi.

Grand Cherokees have made me a lot of money in the past with A/C blend door issues. I've had to take out the whole dash on 4 or 5 of them to fix these issues. Honestly, though...That is one damn good looking vehicle, imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NorthernVike 2,100 Posted August 24, 2013 What do you think about the nissan titan, do you see alot of them with 200,000+ miles?The frames are week as hell. If you plan on pulling anything of considerable weight, I'd look elsewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BiPolarBear 497 Posted August 26, 2013 Gepetto, that is one sweet ride. I worked for a dealership that had a Wrangler they put a hemi in. They did some serious off road in it. It was totally tricked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What kind of issues would that cause the driver to notice? thanks Not yet, but if there were any problems, the dealer would be seeing them, not us. I'm pretty sure they solved those issues on the newer models, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for the diesel for the Grand Cherokee just started building them a couple of weeks ago. They should hit dealer lots anyday though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gepetto 1,480 Posted August 27, 2013 Buddy I play hockey with got one of those last year, floored me how nice the interiors are. Did you black out the emblems or did they come that way? I bought the gloss black JEEP emblem and the entire rear brow brilliant black with brillinat black JEEP emblem. I also replaced the chrome grlle and mirror caps with brand new brilliant black parts and I removed the side chrome strips and replaced with the chrome GRAND CHEROKEE letters which I also bought. I did all of the installations myself. It's been fun modding it. The parts were from the special edition Altitude and Vapor editions. These were actually MY idea! I posted a thread describing a special edition that JEEP should make on a popular Jeep forum and Jeep rolled it out a week later at the Houston, D.C., and Chicago Auto Shows, after the poll/thread received over 85% positive reactions. They won't pay me though, just stole my idea; oh well, at least the factory painted parts were then available for purchase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gepetto 1,480 Posted August 27, 2013 Oh yea, the interior on the Overland especially, like I have is really nice. I got the light frost beige / dark frost beige interior. Sometime I wish I had gotten the black interior though. Here's pics of it. http://www.jeepgarage.org/images/dto_garage/users/7910/3150.jpg http://www.jeepgarage.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=10087&d=1319422877 http://www.jeepgarage.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=10086&d=1319422852 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
