2010 Titan

I did my best to get some background on this Titan. I called Pelletier's fabrication shop and they gave me Jeff's cell phone number. He was very helpful, we had a good conversation and after that we bought it. They had traded the Titan in to Milton Cat for a Cat truck. Milton Cat brought it from the Brewer shop to the Contoocook shop for us. After a day or so of demo and speaking to Jeff, we bought it. Price was right. I think the low gears scared a lot of people off. However I have been working with my salesman from Mcdevitt Mack (who has been awesome! Even though we didn't buy it from them! ) to figure out what would be a good ratio for our application. 4:10 appears to be right, so we will exchange them.

As I said before, this truck certainly was worked hard by pelletiers. Yes it has a patch on the oil pan, I spotted it the other day. If it hasn't been rolled, it's been damn close... but none of that scared me, it was built to run hard. Even after 105,000 miles of torment on the golden road, she is still tight. The emissions equipment scares me more than the work she has done.

I do have a couple pics of her. I have to figure out how to get them on here. When I demoed the truck the moose bumper was still on. Cat took it off and replaced it with a stock bumper without a tow hook, not good in the woods... unfortunately I am probably going to remove the Pelletier headboard as well. I love it, but it is very heavy. This is by far the most rugged truck I have ever driven, that is still comfortable to drive! It is extremely quite, the powerleash brake is incredible, even with the hendrickson suspension it still rides good. They seem to have made a lot of improvement in air ride cab technology.

I now have the #91. It's in NH hauling logs and chips. She is a freight train! She was definitely worked hard by Pelletiers, but still in good shape. As far as I know, the other one was #94 and was wrecked. She has 5:38 rears and I am changing to 4:10. In my opinion Mack did a really good job building the Titan.
