    In my opinion if you like it, get it. You can’t base your final judgement just because other people are saying “this or that is ugly.” If it fits your needs and those are the mods you like, go for it. :)

    Probably not a good time to buy a used vehicle.

    You know your truck. IMO keep yours and add what you want.

    I mean he is asking whether he should buy or not, so the opinion is valid.

    Only the maglight mod,mounted on floor drivers side, billet antenna and have lined all storage under rear seats with rubber to keep the rattling to a minimum.
    Passed. Lies and more lies. Not a suspension lift AT ALL. That had two leveling kits stacked in top of one another. The driveshaft was at its limits as well as the STOCK shocks. Everything else was OK. The fender flares were loose as fk and the grill was rattle canned with flag black w/o primer. The bumpers were pretty good. The stereo didn't work (wired wrong), the LED fogs worked but intermittently the poorly located light bar was crap, only about 10 out of 50 of the LEDs worked. The wheels were sweet but the tires were too much. In short, I pointed out all the crap and he thanked me cuz he had no clue. Keeping mine for now and looking at financing for a 2017/18 4x4

    I think you made the right move. Good luck in your search.
