    Spacers. Worry about them when you figure everything else out such as what suspension setup you'll go with.

    toku's truck is badass, too.

    Buy used and use the money you saved for some mods. Then you can make the truck uniquely yours. Plus a new truck will make you think twice about going off road where you could fuck it up

    I think you should talk to your parents and see what they think. I will tell you, though, that these trucks hold their value very well so buying used might not be the best idea depending on how used the truck is.

    True. I wish i would have gotten a first gen cuz I dented my tailgate on my '07 and hate myself now. I don't want to do anything but easier trails, at least until I get some better rubber

    Don't sweat it. It's a truck and you can buy a replacement at a junkyard at some point. At least it wasn't run into by a drunk illegal alien, lol.

    There's such a wide range out there. You can lift a truck for under $200 or spend $2000. Wheels and tires, you can spend thousands too or not. You have to really decide what you want before you know the answer to that question.
