and aluminum pedals - easy install and fairly inexpensive - but adds a nice, subtle touch to your interior that you will notice everytime you get in your truck

Did the wind deflectors - Mudflaps next with all the loose stone out here a must - What's the max speed before they blow off?

Not yet as it's back at the dealer waiting for Dinan to call back. End of next week earliest as I'm off to Vegas for my annual retirement celebration.

i would just do the running boards opposed to those other mods...its personal preference..but i dont want no wind/rain deflectors on my ride..nor a bull bar. makes it look tacky. thats just my 2 cents.

and for the mud guards..fak the person behind u..they can eat your dust.

ya i agree with that, the windguards are just a convenience things but the running boards do really give a nice feel. they are very pricey though + install does not look too easy

motordavid will become famous soon enoughmotordavid will become famous soon enough
-Mudflaps: decent addon, esp for snow, or crappy roads
-window air deflectors: not my pick, but some people lov'em.
-sun roof " " : no pers exp on effectiveness.
-running boards: look ok, but I tried them at Stlr and unless one is vertically
challenged, not sure what the boards do, other than looks.
-bull bar: a tad too pimped for my eye.
