I was reading through the whole thread and saw how the vehicle was just going and going. Wow! It seems like it is going to last forever... And the conclusion is: You're going to get a different kind of vehicle. It was like a sudden left turn. That's all. I Could have said I lost you here, but opted for the computer version of that.

Re: 235,500 miles!

Well, what I meant was that when this truck does finally die.....I would like a "newer" truck, that being said, I would have to go with maybe a 2006 model with less then 100K on it because I will never buy a 2007-2013 model! Looks like the new 2014 models still use the AFM crap so not to sure about those.... I just think that a 1/2 ton Titan with a V* Cummins will be a great combination!

Re: 235,500 miles!

Well, yesterday at 266,639 miles it left me stranded for only the second time (first time was the fuel pump). Yesterday my alternator died and as such so did my battery, I made it 2/3 on my way home.... My neighbor was kind enough to come pick me up and tow me home.
