    I had to drive 2 hrs to pick it up, but drove back in it with a big grin. Been driving the 92 Blazer for too long. Did even know it had the top sound system in it. Saw the little woofer in the back when I got back. This thing is sweet. What are some affordable upgrades?

    Very sharp! Let me take the time to say congrats and I'm sorry. Congrats on the sharp truck, and I'm sorry you are about to start spending a lot of money modding away. It is like a disease.

    Sweet truck. Welcome to the disease. I said I was going to leave mine alone when I got it. Maybe wheels/tires in a year or so. I bought it in July and I've done wheels/tires, added an ipod adapter to the stereo, put the ABS on a toggle switch, and now I've got a pair of Hella 700ff driving lights on the way that i'll be fabbing up some mounts for soon. I'll likely be putting Bilsteins in it before long too. If I didn't have such a long commute I would be lifting it too I'm sure. 40 years old and still playing with every vehicle I've got like I'm 18. I can't leave anything alone. Well except my wife's Venza. If I mod that at all she'll kill me.
