    Figured I would finally stop lurking and post my truck. It's a 2014 regular cab 4x4 with the 5 speed. I bought new it a little over a year ago and told the dealer to find me a regular cab with 4 wheel drive, a stick and no options.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    The first mod I got was a leer topper. I was able to get the headliner as a promotion they had going on. It fits the truck perfectly and I definitely would recommend this to anyone. The only problem I've had was the sliding window shattering when I shut it. I still don't know why it did and I still need to replace it.

    I plastidiped my center caps black and color matched my grill. I used rustoleum gloss white and It matched very well. I also wrapped my a pillar handles with 550 paracord to give the interior a little something.

    The seats already stained :p my new puppy peed on it the first week we had her. I'm probably going to redo the seat so for right now I'm not really worried about it

    Just put on some new tires yesterday. Went with 285/75/16 nankang mudstars. They look like an exact copy of the maxxis buckshot mudders. They definitely ride and sound like a cheap mt, but they do exactly what I need and most importantly, I could afford them. I have no lift and no trimming, just took off the mudflaps, and I haven't gotten them to rub at all. Even if they do, it looks like it would be very minor trimming.

    Can you please post close-ups of the grill. I am curious how close the colors are.

    Looks Great!!!

    I love this. People talk ad nauseam about what will fit with this spec wheel and UCA and spacers and suspension and BCM chop and yadya and you just slap 285/75/16s on there and do work.

    Well done sir, well done. I like your style already.

    Thanks. I'm sure this tire is a little smaller than other 285's. I've done so much research on tires for this trucks and I think something like a toyo would rub. It is pretty close to the uca, maybe .5 inch away. I would rather trim than lift. After all, the tire still has to move through the same area during uptravel. I just love that every post I've read say minimum 3 inch lift, cmc, trimming, aftermarket wheels and still expect rubbing.
