    Not only that, I am frequently parked in Kansas City, Missouri as well as at isolated trail parking lots. I have had this set up with a bunch of different trucks since 2002.

    Is similar to the DZ Innovations Shift Sense, which changes the shift mapping of the automatic transmission, or is this something that "makes it drive better"?

    This, OVTune, my snugtop and the OEM Bed Matt for the dogs are the most useful. The one I get the most kick out of is the MESO Pro Shifter Knob for easy access to ECT engagement.

    Most likely the next mod will be 4.88 re gearing :rasta:

    My limited had them when I bought the truck, not sure if they were aftermarket or a factory add on from the previous owner.

    I use the Rigid boxes from Home depot the same way. Waterproof, stackable, and cheaper than Samsonite. Plus you can lock em in the bed in a similar fashion.

    I'd be afraid of kids kicking and stepping on the chargers.

    Well, it's just the usb cords, and last time my kid did step on it, it pulled right out, so no damage. I don't think it's a huge concern...

    I haven't found anything compelling.

    I did LED headlights and Fogs just so my truck looks like its from this decade in terms of headlight technology.

    My truck came with a bedmat and tonneau cover which is handy.

    The aftermarket is Mostly a bunch of shit you don't actually need. It will make you look cool as fuck on Instagram and it might entice you to post about "Overlanding" experiences when all you really did was camp in the same place that someone in a Subaru showed up at.

    Cringe worthy how clean and new all this crap is that he doesnt even need. My favorite part is when he breaks out the cooking gear and pan fries cheap hot dog weiners. (Not sure if shown in this video...)

    My truck has all the bells and whistles including front and rear lockers, but never have I been so happy with it as when I slept in the bed for the first time after buying a camper shell
