New fatboy on the block

fatboyslim86440 · Apr 3, 2013

Just bought me a 2013 1500 express 2 weeks ago and decided to post up on the forum. With it being my new daily, we have already threw 2000 miles on it, drove it off the lot with 4 miles.
Original plan with the truck was to build some credit history up and trade it in for the longhorn in a couple of months. I may start hot shotting across the county so may have a cummins in the drive way also..

All pictures have been taken from a iPhone5

I also own (two) 2003 Maximas so I'm known on the maxima forum..
One is the rare 6 speed manual transmission and the other is slammed to the ground..

Welcome and congrats! I'm lucky to put 11,000 miles on my DD a year. Sounds like you do a lot of driving. Of course, mine sits all day while at work and on the weekends since we use the wife's Enclave.

Welcome aboard! LOVE That gen. Maxima.
Maybe I can get some backup on owning a Nissan now (my DD is an '01 Sentra SE w/PP and SR20) :favorites13:

Lol! Na, no Harley for me..

The color choice was a toss up between this and that burnt copper color.. Bank wouldn't accept me on the burnt copper... :/

Screw the cvt!

Only reason why I haven't looked at the new gen maxima. Styling is bad ass but that transmission is a BIG sit back...

Yup, I would have that in my garage if Nissan wasn't garbage with their transmissions...
Anywho, enough with Nissans..

Thanks everyone! Been a ram guy my whole life, my dad has (two) 2nd gen cummins, a third gen cummins along with a ramcharger and a 65 model dodge pickup...

yup, owned many new Nissans, 02 Altima, 04 Altima, 05 Maxima, 08 Altima, then CVT made me hate 08, so went to Hyundai in 2011.

A Hyundai?!? Better trade it in before that war with North Korea starts..

I'm pretty happy with my ram so far. No issues so far other than the lack of a front axle up under it. Nearly got it stuck with this rainy texas weather.

fatboyslim86440 · Apr 4, 2013

Most recent with about 2500 miles on it.

Wash that truck lol
