    So when I bought the truck I had the dealer do the level and add beefier tires. Now after being part of this forum, I am extremely torn as far as what I want to do next. There are just way more possibilities than previously was prepared for. I don't have a ton of extra spending cash, and I want to make the most of my mods. With that being said I will spend whatever's necessary to get it the way i want. So I'm looking for responses of what would/did YOU do first. You have $2k to spend....and GO!!!

    Color Match or exhaust. Those were a couple of the first things I did. 1 you enjoy every time you look at your truck. The other you enjoy every time you drive it.

    I agree with warren. But on the other hand, the radio is the weakest part of the truck and I need a good system to bump that Justin Bieber down the road :eek: :anonymous:

    I do love that color, especially how it gets dark at night but lightens up in the sun.

    I don't think I'll be able to get a supercharger til after I pay it off. Although I'd be glad to put one on there if someone were to buy it for me. :D:D:D:rofl::rofl:

    If you like to offroad, get king shocks, it lasts the life of the truck cuz they’re rebuildable and you can have them tuned how you want them to ride and slap some rock sliders on. If you mall crawl.....trd rear sway bar, full race exhaust from dirty deeds, ditch lights

    It's your truck Lucas so do whatever you want to do. The stock exhaust is heavy and doesn't sound all that good so new exhaust is instant gratification. Have fun with your mods.

    I appreciate that...and believe me I want to do it all. Just not sure where to start though. I've had my ideas on which direction I wanted to go first but hadn't convinced myself. Which is how this thread has come about.

    If you want some ideas you can check out my truck in my build thread. The Led light kit for the interior is great and not to pricey. You can see how bright it is in my thread.
