i have an '07 lb cc and wondering if there are any suggestions to maybe reduce the turning radius alittle.

I have a SB and the radius is still larger than my f150. One of the few downsides you have to live with I guess?
Ha, in parking lots i will wave people on when I am making a trurn, then they will try to wave me on to be nice, then I will wave like "no if you don't move i'll have to run your a$ over".

If anyone figures out how to reduce the turning radius, plese do a detailed writeup here.
:laugh:

The worst is trying to park my boat trailer at my favorite boat ramp.

Yeah it's a pain. I've learned to live with it, my parking jobs are almost always a 2 point turn. I don't think much can be done to increase it. I'm already rubbing the inside fender liner at full lock with larger tires.

The sad part is that my 97 Nissan truck turns on a dime. I've had to really adjust to this. I think the most serious impact would be for off-roaders where turning radius can make all the difference on a tight trail.

Turning radius? :laugh:I just sold my F250 Long Bed CC 4x4 turned like a 747. This Frontier turns like a compact car compared to my Ford.

Nissan has the know how. My folks have an 02 xterra. I've driven it and it turns around on itself, unbelievable compared to the truck I drive.

I make up for the radius issue with that long pedal on the right and my big foot:D
