    There's a whole collection of mods to upgrade various items from intermittent wipers to heated seats, backup camera to fog lights, hood struts, noise dampening, onboard air, you name it. Rather than have people list of everything possible you should probably do some reading to see which ones appeal then ask more questions, do more reading, etc. until you have some kind of plan. Given that you went for the least expensive model you'll probably need the benefit and cost savings that some pre planning can provide. I also got a base model but it has the convenience package and tow package so aside from the toy wheels the factory stuff I really wanted was already there and I can pick and choose what else I want to add. It adds up quick and I can't buy it all at once but I can look for deals in the meantime.

    I'll bet you saved at least 8 grand and what the hell do you need those jump seats for? You can't keep this interior looking new. Sometimes I think I should have bought the bearded work truck.

    As noted, a third party keyless entry system can be installed.
    No rear seats? Think of it as a plus. You have more storage inside your truck.
    Spend the money you saved on some wheels or a camper shell!
    Most of all, enjoy your truck!
