Can you cite an example of someone in non commercial vehicle being escorted to scales to check axle weights? I have been towing coast to coast border to border for over 30 years and have never heard of this being done.

I was suggesting that a voluntary trip to a nearby scales would be an eye opener, especially with regard to exceeding axle loading without exceeding the maximum vehicle and towing limits.   While I can't cite any specific examples without doing some research to provide documentation, I've seen apparently 'private' pickup trucks towing apparently 'commercial' loads (machine parts, building materials etc.) being stopped and checked by the 'truck bears'. They use a deserted ten mile stretch of US19 near me to play on. The only time I've seen a travel trailer rig being investigated was when it had pulled over to change a wheel. Wrong time and place!   Of course, this doesn't mean that you won't get stopped if your totally private rig of any sort looks to be out of balance i.e. nose up tail down. Nor does it mean you won't get a full check over if a dirtbag drunk runs into you! Highway Patrol et al. are obligated to check out both parties in a collision. If there are injuries, or worse, a fatality, the check out will be very thorough!

Hello,   I have seen a few of them on the roads, i'm just wondering how these bad boys are doing? Its been on the market now for 3 months. Its a nice truck. I might get one in a year or so.
#809 of 1470 1st trip to dealer by mdziekonski Apr 04, 2004 (8:02 pm)
After 4,000 miles I made my 1st trip back to the dealer, only problem were the brakes. They were completely warped already which made the truck vibrate while braking. (they replaced them under warranty) Anyone eles notice this problem? I'm also averaging 12mpg (I'm hoping this will improve), how is everyone eles doing with there mileage & etc..

I heard incorrect lugnut torque will cause that...   They should have checked them at PDI.
#811 of 1470 Sorry If I am covering old ground by atlgaxt Apr 06, 2004 (11:43 am)
But I am new to the thread. After going to the auto show in Atlanta a month ago my wife and I are smitten with the Titan, and are considering an upgrade to a Titan within the next year.   On my current truck I have a roll'n'lock. This is an awesome cover that is easy to open and close and is secure when closed. I don't want a hard fiberglass cover that has to be removed or sits open when I have something in the bed. I don't want a soft vinyl, non secure cover that needs to be rolled or painstakingly snapped into place.   Is there a rolling cover that fits the Titan with the bed utility package? If not, I would settle for a folding one, but I am wondering if either can be fitted to this truck. A couple of people asked similar questions in earlier posts but I never saw an answer. I love the truck, but the inability to put a simple to use and secure cover would be a deal breaker for me.   Thanks! Replies to this message: rac66 (Apr 15, 2004 3:00 pm)

any truck accessory shop can form-fit one to the titan. they are versatile that way. there is none available from nissan, but they are everywhere else.
#813 of 1470 Thanks Bowke28 by atlgaxt Apr 06, 2004 (12:12 pm)
I can keep my Titan daydreams going a little longer.
#814 of 1470 orry If I am covering old ground by atlgaxt by keanec Apr 06, 2004 (12:47 pm)
The only issue you will find with this type of cover (and some other types) is the utilitrac system on the Titan. If you don't order it you will have no problem finding what you want. Some tops are already being made that allow you to have the utilitrac system.    If you areen't buying right now, there are more covers (in all styles) that are adapting to the utilitrac. Try searching on Titan Accessories or just titan to find some or to find other forums which have more info.   You will love the Titan!!!
#815 of 1470 New Titan by habby Apr 06, 2004 (1:20 pm)
I took delivery on my new Titan yesterday.Got to take it for a 300 mile ride today. What an awsome truck...much better than the 97 F150 I had a few years ago. And to top it off I got a little over 15mpg on the first tank!
