    Hey guys I sold my Duramax a few months back once and bought a 2014 white TRD off road 4 door. I needed something a little more practical and quite frankly my old truck just wouldn't fit in the parking deck at school.
    So far I have
    -tinted the windows 10% all the way around and nothing on the front.
    - Put on my brother in laws XSP rims and tires from his 2014 that had like 400 miles on them.
    -threw my radar detector in the window.
    -ordered a bed cover but haven't had a chance to pick it up yet.

    I'm planning on going with a lift how ever I'm not sure how much yet, I really want it to sit about the same height as a normal full size truck however I want something with the same if not better ride off road. Gravel roads not like rocking climbing or anything. What do y'all suggest?

    Hey welcome. 10% on the windows? How the hell do you see in the dark? And a radar detector? People still use those things?

    Thats why I made a back up camera a must have! Going to put Led reverse lights and maybe 2 6-12" light bars in the back sometime and then it really won't be a problem. Its worth it to me because when I get to school and won't go to my truck for up too a week or two once i put a "windshield sun blocker thing" you literally can't see inside the truck, can't steal what you can't see! and my girlfriend got me the radar detector, hasn't really ever saved me from a ticket but I've only had it maybe 2000miles, and it has other features like speed ect
