    Hey everybody, I've been browsing this forum for the last 8 months and thank everyone for the help on decisions, mods, tweaks, etc. This is my first truck and first brand new vehicle so I'm excited to make it my own.

    I figured I might has well make a build page since everyone is doing it :p

    Access Lorado Tonneau cover...kinda of a pain to install since it sits behind the rails. And unfortunately the OEM cleats are unusable since how low it sits (already sold)

    SOS Concepts sliders installed..thanks Eddy! They are awesome..

    If you don't draw blood, you're doing it wrong!
    Nice looking truck!

    I just ordered some CalTrend NeoSupreme covers for my DC/LB (Black w/ Light Gray inserts).

    Seems like you are the only one to have decent pictures of the covers installed. They look like a great/snug fit :thumbsup:

    Thanks! The back and driver fits more snug than passenger. I think it's because it folds down and its two pieces. They still look like new!
