    So, here are some pics. She's still plain Jane. Had a bit of a issue with my tint guy not having my windshield tint, so I have to wait to get my tint for a little over a week. I am realizing how used to 5% tint I was. This time, I am also having the windshield tinted 70%. Next week I get Viper remote start installed and the bed liner put in.

    Kind of having buyer's remorse on getting the "skid resistor" liner instead of spray. What do you guys have?

    Totally NOT regretting that dual exhaust though. She purrs at me!! :rolleyes:

    @Coolhardy Haha yup! The only way to go, in my humble opinion.

    Everyone always makes fun of my husband when we tell people the truck is mine and the little Lexus is his. :rofl:

    Yes, I do. Took these just for you. I am trying to figure out my dog platform situation at the moment. Note: lots of dog hair already! My husky mats and seat covers cannot come soon enough! I would pick black on black with light colored dogs.

    Thanks, @SlickRick2013Tundra!

    @aramirez73 Wheels, tires, and lifting will probably be my next step.

    Not really a fan of the chrome insert on tailgate either. Probably going to remove that.

    Your truck looks awesome! Kind of looks like what I was going for. Are those bushwacker flares? I was going to get the painted ones, but I also don't want to mess up the paint in the event I decide to remove them.

    Dumb question, do you know if the midnight metallic and attitude black are the same? I keep reading it is. But bushwacker says attitude black...so I wanted to be sure.

    That's not a dumb question at all.To be honest with you to get the correct paint code I would check your Vin number and call your parts department at the dealership to give you the exact paint color ..

    Really?! Looks nice. I was thinking of powder coating mine down the road.

    Half of my friends keep telling me to keep it chrome since everyone blacks theirs out. But when I see them like that, I don't even care! I will be like everyone else.

    @aramirez73 Thanks for the tips! So many options.

    Most of the time, I feel like a tomboy. :cool:

    But I do love when guys in trucks try to pass me up in their rams and F150s and then realize I'm just a little chick driving my truck. The looks always crack me up. Of course, that was with my old truck with tinted windows. Now it's pretty clear I am no dude.

    Nothing wrong with him having a little Lexus, as long as he knows how to drive it.


    Good looking truck, you're braver than I going with black. Too high maintenance to keep looking good for this guy. But it does look damn good clean.

    They do look good clean! I have gotten used to just letting it get dirty sometimes. It is a truck, after all. But silver would have been a heck of a lot easier.
