    DTRL, Skid Plate, Bed Extender, ipod hook up in glove bo, bed mat, rubber mats, Garmin GPS, 2.5"Toyotec lift with 5100 shocks and Eibach springs.
    I am all about utility and practicality.

    The past couple of days I have used my truck so much and I love that! I picked up my motorcycle, and hauled a bunch of pallets back to a paver tile. I also took a huge load to the dump and did some burn outs in the mud.

    My 3" lift with the 5100's is just the best!

    I love my gas mileage as I just put my scan-gauge II in and got about 40-50 miles more out of the tank (450).

    I am really looking forward to summer and doing some off-roading and none of this would have happened without this website.

    Thanks everyone!
