    What do you do with your truck?

    That'll really decide on what kind of stuff you should consider adding.

    Nothing super crazy to be honest. Mainly DD with the occasional trip out to the dunes. Looking into hitting up some trails soon though! Finally have some people I can go with

    Since you go in dunes, I'd probably get a receiver for $100 and a D ring, and/or make sure you have a tow hook in the front.

    Also, a good folding shovel or a traditional shovel mounted on quick fists would probably be smart too, so you could get yourself out of a stuck situation.

    A Curt or similar receiver is bolt in and not expensive, and I would figure Smittybilt has a D ring for not much money either.

    Tow hooks are sold here for $60-80 up front. Expensive to me, for a hook, but seems to be the going rate.

    You can grab the Smittybilt for like $40 off Amazon. It works great. I've pulled F350s with 35' trailers out of the sand on more than one occasion with it
