Title: Got my new truck
Post by: LilSmoker on June 17, 2007, 02:01:31 PM
Hi guys, i missed everybody, i've been working away from home on a contract which is now finished i'm glad to say.

Anyway got my new truck, i wanted a Dodge Ram, but not really practical this side of the pond, so i went for the Nissan, i'm very pleased with it, i added some exras to it, i didn't like the stock wheels so i got some blingers!  ;D:

I have an 04 Nissan Titan and just love it.  Three years plus now and I am happy to say I don't know the name of one of the service men.

Welcome back my friend.  Missed seeing your posts.  Figured you were on vacation.  Nice ride.  Nissan quality is double that of RAM.  I have a RAM simply because I need diesel power for my 5th Wheel, otherwise I would buy a Nissan or Toyota.

Sweet ride!  You don't need a propane smoker; you need a gas powered generator!  Or some sort of booster adaptor that will kick out enough amps to run the BS off the cigarette lighter

Nice motor LS, I have a Toyota LandCruiser but have been tempted to change it for the Nissan like yours on a couple of occasions. A mate has just got a Nissan........ beautiful beast!!  :D ;)

The ultimate shooting brake LS. I am green with envy. Just got myself a newish Freelander TD4. OK but not hard core, if you catch my drift.

Hi LS
Like the motor especially the number plate????. One of my working vehicles (on the farm) is a Range Rover coming up to 5 years old and in need of replacement. Does that truck of yours have 4x4? as I need something that will go off road as well as tow through mud and snow with a couple of tonnes of cattle on the hook.

Great looking rig L-Smoker! Is the extra cab in the back for the mobile Bradley(s)?? I suspect that you can line up at least three or four with vent manifold tied into a "snorkle-disguise"!!  ;)

Note to Manx.....Don't be forced into chosing....KEEP the LC AND get the truck!! Impossible to beat the LC for all around vehicle....had one and sold it, missed it like crazy and gonna get another.....best land vehicle I've ever owned for all around use on the road systems up here!

Hi Boybach, yes it has switchable hi and low 4 wheel drive if needed, plus in stock form it would be more suited for off road.
Here's a pic of mine in stock form, just after i picked it up:

"Beast" is right, LilSmoker! That pic was taken in its SubArctic 'AlCan Flash' configuration, somewhere along the AlCan Highway in February. Lots of custom stuff on this rig that makes it perfect for what I ask it to do, but your new truck could hold its own on the February AlCan as well!!   8)

Hey lil i could turn that trucks bed into a perfect hot tub.No biggie.Its THE PERFECT SIZE.Think of the possibilitys . ;D ;D Sun Fun AND TUB.

Post by: LilSmoker on June 19, 2007, 04:47:53 PM
Certainly looks a tough truck Kummok, and i guess living in your part of the world, it's nice to know you have a vehicle that can cope with all situations.
I like it  ;)

Now....Mr. Rat, i like this idea of the hot tub, i could just pull over when ever i want, jump in the tub, BS ribs in one hand, beer in the other, would certainly please my wife as she really wanted a hot tub, i had to convince her we needed a truck even more! ;D ;)

Anyway, i'm off for a little break for a few days, going to Cornwall, i love it there, imo it's one of the most picturesque places left in England, i'm gonna get some lovely fresh fish for the BS.
So see you guys in a few days (http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Others/others-078.gif) .......please behave yourselves (http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Grin-Nod.gif)(http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Grin-Nod.gif)(http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Grin-Nod.gif)

THIS is my ultimate dream vehicle ( http://www.turtleexpedition.com/vehicles/turtle5.php ) !!   8) 8)  These folks, (Gary & Monika Wescott), are great explorers and were very helpful with advice, preparing mine for the AlCan winter driving. Who knows....maybe someday, I'll be posting pics on Icerat's "New Toys" thread... ;) ;)  Good luck w/ the fishing.....er, ahhhhh, make that w/ the CATCHING! ;) :D
