    Oh look, another mod....
    Nice truck, but.....

    ...you need new wheels, tires, a lift, new front and rear steel bumpers, a tonneau cover, a roof rack, lights...lots and lots of lights (get LED's man!), new seat covers, more cameras, maybe a RTT or Shell. Fuck it, just empty the 401k & max out all the CC's.

    Congrats. Nice truck. Get it tuned before you get used to the throttle lag and terrible shifting. Best money you can spend.

    Access cab - it rules -

    Drive of 1,000 miles, go easy on it, and then see what you really need.
    The Stock Truck will perform just fine for a long time -
    Bed Mat, Bed Step, Bed Lights, Mud Flaps are inexpensive functional items that will come in handy.

    Lifting, swapping out tires, fancy grills etc will cost a lot of money and right now aren't really needed.

    Adjusted for inflation, that's my 3.5 cents LOL...

    Also you need to re gear like right now and get some lights to mount on your lights. Don't get lockers, just buy more lights!

    Once you start by buying the $12 center tray organizer off Amazon you are doomed to spend $1000s.

    Yes, that’s the first thing I did and that was supposed to be it and now I’m hanging out in the lift and tire section of TW

    Welcome!
    Now take off the front air dam, regear to 4.88, install a bed mat, fix the ac drain plug, change your tail lights to Morimotos, swap the head unit, realize you really should change the 4.88 gearing to 5.29, cab mount chop, install 285/75/17 tires, but then you heard 16" wheels are better for offroading so you do a cab mount chop....

    Enjoy your truck. There's a lot of great people on here with really helpful information - don't get caught up in the need to spend money for the sake of looking cool.
