Don't forget that when the builders in Australia make equipment for Highway vehicles it has to be certified. To do that they have to go through a bunch of testing for that. In the US you don't get that near as much and therefore the company will state "For Off Road Use ONLY". That is usually an indication that testing hasn't been preformed to say it's safe for Highway(Street) use.
Right. In the US essentially all aftermarket parts are made/designed without any testing or certification. It's the wild west out there. Some parts may be engineered and tested out the wazoo (GFC is a great example), or they may just be assembled in a Chinese factory using boogers (anything 4WP sells). The fact that there is a test procedure and guidelines at all for design and install for these tanks is my point here.

I have driven more than 1. I have driven many that had both the 5.6 and the Cummins 5.0 as well. Hate feeling bumps in the road? It's a truck, not a Rolls Royce. Turning radius? The titan is a big truck so it is expected. Try driving a D40 Frontier. After that you won't bitch.
I respect your opinion but my 65 1 ton Chevy had better ride than the this Titan. My lifted Ranger with aggressive ATs did feel like a Rolls Royce after driving that thing and I am pretty sure its a truck.

Someone has to buy it. Sure as hell wont be me. ✌
