Went to the beach this sunday, South Padre Island. Just an afternoon of some fun in the sand. Sorry for the poor picture quality guys, my girlfriend had my digital camera so had to buy a disposable.. I had to resize all the pic's, and unfortunately left out a few others.. Really bad quality.. last time I use a disposable. Anyways, this has been the most fun I've had on my truck to date! Awesome performance, can't wait to level it out and stick some 35's on there :D

Here are the pic's

On the last 2, the pictures do no justice. I'm 5'10, had to jump out, and jump up to grab the Oh $h*t! handle to get back in! lol

After the last pic was taken, the truck slid down dune sideways. My cousin (taking the pic) thought it might tip over lol

I can't believe how well the stock truck performs!

Great pics! Looks like you had fun testing out the Titan's off-road capability.

Yeah, most are "ok".. it's just that I'm used to my digital. It's only a 2MP, but does much better in low light/night pictures. But yea, definitely had a blast! :D

is that salt water you're driving through? if it is, you're krazy man. the pictures are awesome, espeically with the sunset and all. i wish my titan was 4x4 so i'd be able to drive is up the beach like you guys do.

Yea, it's salt water from the bay. It wasn't as bad as it looks though, it was maybe 5 yards of water, 2 somewhat deep. The deepest was in the pic where it looks like the whole front end is gonna dive in. It wasn't a choice, that was the only way in our out of where we went.

Needless to say the truck got a major wash the morning after. I always take it to Reynosa, Mexico, to get it washed. You know the undercarriage wash sprays used in some of the DIY carwash places? Well, in Mexico they lift your truck up on a ramp, and walk under it with a pressure hose. They really do an awesome job. And for just $5, it's more than worth it.
