00:00 We're standing in front of the new 2008 Titan.
00:10 New model for us, we actually have two new models this year.
00:13 They're both long wheel base models on the king cab and the crew cab.
00:17 The long base on the crew cab which we have right now is a 7 foot, longest in the segment.
00:24 On the king cab it's an 8 foot bed, so big truck, big beds for us.
00:29 Model new for us this year is a minor change for the Titan.
00:32 On the front end, which we're looking at right now, it's a new grill, new headlights.
00:37 Also new is 20 inch wheels on the LE grade, which is our top.
00:41 This is brand new.
00:43 On the rest of the lineup, they're all standard 18 inch wheels, which is also new this year.
00:47 A couple of other new points for the '08 Titan specifically is we have a new brake package
00:52 this year.
00:53 Going along with the fact that the wheels got to 18 inches gave us enough room to completely
00:58 redo the brakes.
01:00 We now have overall 80 square inches of front swept area, which is biggest in the segment.
01:05 This one obviously is the long wheel base.
01:07 Along with the long wheel base models, we also increased the fuel tank capacity to 37
01:12 gallons, which is best in class, which is pretty significant.
01:15 For a guy who's using this for work, he only has to fill up once a week.
01:18 He can go a long way on one tank of gas without having to constantly stop and refill.
01:22 We still retain obviously the best in class spray and bed liner, the only factory applied
01:27 spray and bed liner for any full size pickup.
01:30 We've had great luck with it.
01:31 The guys really appreciate it.
01:32 In addition, we have the Utilitrac system, which we're continuing on with.
01:36 A total of five C-channel rails, two in the floor, and there's a whole set of bed accessories
01:41 that go along with that.
01:42 Still standard V8 engine across the board, 5.6 liter, dual overhead cam engine.
01:48 Pretty proud of the fact that every Titan anybody gets will have the big powerful V8
01:52 engine.
01:53 As part of our minor change for Titan, we've changed the C-stack area, which is completely
01:58 new HVAC controls, a new audio system.
02:02 In addition, we have more grade differentiation.
02:05 We have four different grades available this year.
02:07 One new grade we have is the Pro 4X off-road grade.
02:10 It has a unique interior with red stitching on the steering wheel, the shift knob, and
02:16 on the seats, which we're pretty excited about, along with the Bilstein shocks and other content.
02:20 And then in addition, our top grade LE has wood trim on the interior.
02:24 With these new vehicles, we have the two new long wheelbase models.
02:27 We expect to get a lot more guys who maybe use the truck during the week for work, and
02:32 on the weekends, a family vehicle.
02:33 So a lot more dual use, and in addition, guys who actually use it for work as opposed to
02:38 just commuting and playing.
02:39 So we think that we're moving more towards the work category as opposed to just a lifestyle
02:43 truck.
