    At this point it may be too late but if you're a Taco Bell customer dark seat covers might be a worthy upgrade and investment.

    Like, so many.
    Weathertech mats or similar.
    Bed mat.
    Hondo Garage radio knobs. Trust me.
    Paint your tow hook like the cool kids do.
    New tires.
    Get connected in your regional forum. You have a really active one.

    Read the owners manual.

    Explore all the do-dads on the truck and learn how to use them.

    Drive it. If you are going to offroad, start with easy trails and become one with the vehicle.

    Dont ask others what to spend your $ on. When you find a 'shortcoming' it has for how you use it, then make a mod to correct that.

    Just buy new seats, Taco Bell could even melt the seat frames. And don't push too hard, long squishy, stinky, warm drive home.
