    Like the title says, after browsing TW, I am super interested in the badass trucks I've seen. My issue is that I'm on a budget and need to start small. Where is a solid place to start in order to get on the road to having a sick ride? Thanks in advance for your recommendations

    The road or trails. Determine what you need to make your truck a sick ride for yourself. Whether that be a lift, plate bumpers, light bars, tires, or an pine tree air freshener, only you can decide.

    Rattlecan paint or Plastidip is probably the cheapest thing (~$6) that will have a greatest aesthetic impact on your truck.

    I would start with some interior stuff if not already done:
    -Weathertech floor mats
    -Console and dash organizers
    -Scanguage

    Then maybe(but before figure out what you want to do with the truck to make this decision):
    -Suspension lift
    -New wheels/tires

    So, I've got the weathertech which saves me a whole lot of concern about my floors.

    I'm definitely going to find some organization tools.

    what's a scanguage?

    I've been eyeing some real nice tires, that they actually had at the dealership, which were nice and aggressive!

    Thanks for the pointers!!

    A scanguage is a great tool used for monitoring MPG(Built in MPG monitor isn't all that accurate in your vehicle), Battery voltage, engine timing, Horsepower, and a whole bunch more.
    (Pretty much just monitors your vehicle and provides in depth information, really comes in handy when something is wrong and you can notice anomalies)

    Started with Weathertech and now have the front grill dipped. Easy process and makes it look as it should have always looked,dipped grill.jpg IMO.
