Thanks for the info. Although I haven't had any problems since the brake fix, I was wondering how well these trucks perform as they age.

I just got home and checked my invoices and it is 5W30. I still have 20W50 on my brain from my past rides, LOL.

The first week I owned the truck I went to the dealer and had the radio, seatbelts and a switch replaced for a 4lo light and that's been it for warranty work.

I put a set of Revo's on at 62,000 miles (Had the OEM Bridgestones) and while I was at it I upgraded the front brake pads and rotors (Never had a Brake problem). I change my oil at around the 10,000 mile mark with Mobil1 15,000 because that's when the oil analysis has shown that I should with my type of driving. I have neoprene seat covers so I guess the seats still look good.

I'm planning on buying another Titan and keeping this one for the Queen I'm...........I mean she's so happy with it.

I've only got 82k miles on my truck .... the milage has really slowed down since I've been cursed with the Anxiety Attack a.k.a. Scare-maro .... but I will say that my brakes didn't start the wobble-stop stuff until 35k miles and the dealership fixed it right the first time I took it in .... I had the right rear axle seal replaced at 55k miles .... and my doors will not latch closed when the weather gets below freezing, and I took it to the dealer before the service bulletin about that came out, so they didn't fix it ....I use a ratcheting tie-strap from the inside of the passenger door to the inside of the drivers door to hold the dang doors closed and that sucks a big one..... oh yea, my truck rattles more than my dad's '04 F-one fiddy ..... but I do run my tires much harder than a sane person would ..... I use cheap oil and cheap filters and change it every 4000 miles, which was every month until the Scare-maro came along.
