New Toy

I picked this up yesterday to replace the Sporttrac. The ST was a good vehicle but was starting to have some issues and getting up there in mileage. What I always loved about the ST was it's uniqueness; and the Titan has got a lot of that. This thing has more bells and whistles than I know what to do with.

It was damn near impossible to find a Titan configured exactly the way I wanted in the color I wanted. There were only a couple between here and San Jose and none in Smoke (Grey). So I went up to Shingle Springs Nissan/Subaru and test drive the Canteen Green. The color is growing on me and definitely fits into my "unique" requirement.

So far, I am amazed by the ride quality and power. I still have to get used to the overall hugeness, but I can deal.

She may end up eventually being the SRIC Track ***** Tow Truck. I think it's a good idea to tow the STi to the track because either Lance or I are going to break something one of these days and need a tow home.

Sweet the 3rd Titan Subaru tow machine. I know that MattR has used his truck more than one time to help with track disasters. Congratulations. I feel silly. I thought the new avitar was smoke colored. I like this color. yay for you.

I stand corrected. It is "Trash Bin" or "Yard Waste" green!
