Drove a Titan last Friday. As I said once, I am looking at trading my Tundra but was really wanting something smaller--not BIGGER. I just wanted to drive the Titan though. Look, it is a half ton--yep. It is a big truck--yep. It is very powerful--yep. It is also very fast--yeppers. In Popular Mechanics it was faster than all tested trucks. It is also a very refined truck but not as smooth and slick as the Tundra nor does it have the "car" feel of the Tundra. The Titan has all sorts of neat features and options and has Dana limited slip axles front and rear with Active Brake Traction Control and of course ABS.
Again, I hope not to start a flame war, but I have to say that the Titan is the King of the Hill for sporty half ton 4X4 trucks. It was faster in the PM test than the hemi Dodge. Let me say--the Titan will scoot and it also has a nearly 10,000 lb tow rating. The Titan is about 6 inches longer than the Tundra and about 3 inches wider and weighs a bit more as well although all the tested trucks in PM were over 5,000 lbs. as I remember.
If I get a new car, I sure like new cars but hate buying them, maybe it will be a Titan or maybe I just hang with the ol'Tundra. Y'all have a great day. J
