Well, Goodbye Power Wagon

[BigLazer4u]

It’s been great getting to know all of you these past few years. What a blast it’s been owning this beast.

Long story short, I drove into the dealer today to see a brand new Nissan GTR since I had never seen one in person before. Wasn’t even there to buy anything or sell anything..

The sales rep asked me what I would take for my truck and I said well anything’s for sale for the right price. 5 minutes later after looking my truck over and collecting the vin, he said I’ll give you 60k for it. I paid 52,500 for it in early 2019 and the truck has 31k miles on.. I just couldn’t believe I could make a profit with this many miles. So I said you have a deal, I drove home and got the title out the safe. Signed it over and received a 60k check.

I may step up to a mega cab diesel on this next truck. But as of right now I’m going to pocket this cash, maybe go buy a few nice hunting rifles or fishing poles while I wait for this inflation and economy to crash or atleast go back to normal. In the mean time I’ll drive my old tundra that’s 16 years old and still runs like new. Gotta love a yota.

thanks for everything my brothers, hope to be back soon for some advice on the next beast.

I thought you were going to show us a pic of the new GTR lol. Great sale. I did the same with my 2018. I put 25k mile on it in a year and a half and sold it for 3k more than I paid. Nuts

Yeah I'm with @56PW17 , was totally expecting a GTR here lol

Man the good ones are dropping like flies! All started with you @56PW17

Hope you stick around @BigLazer4u and cheers to the future! Oh and let's stop all that "economy crashing" talk okay? lol

yea figured I better sell mine too. traded straight across for this bad boy. I figure this car will only go up in value unlike the truck.

Way more cool 86 olds cutless calais, who won’t be wanting one of these in a few years…..

I'm bit of an Olds guy. My first was a '69 98 big block, massively underpowered for what it was capable of, and my last was a '95 1st GEN Aurora. That thing would move on down the road.

Well the tundra gave out on me. She was an oldie but a goodie.

Ordered this beast and it arrived today. Man I sure do love this diesel. It’s a completely different animal than the power wagon. Decided against the mega cab after I sat in a few.

80 grand later she arrived. Going to call her Betty.

Would anyone know if 35’s will fit on the 2022’s?

Whew!! Reading that at a passing glance I thought you got one of those ugly Tundras.

Congrats man! I hope that monster of a truck treats you well!

I don't see why 35's would fit but I guess I don't know. Aren't you going to level it a bit? You could just email Thuren. They'll get back to you ASAP with the right answer. They might even have it on their technical info section of their website. Sorry I don't have time to look right now.

22‘s are the same as 21’s which are the same as 20’s and so on so with the right wheel offset they will fit.
