    Woot! Have fun with the new truck, I'll park here and watch the progress. I vote ST Maxx and the Methods. :D I just swapped my 265/75/16 ST Maxx for some 285's. I only got them over the 255's cause I got a smoking deal.

    Congrats on the new truck! Clean slate ftw. So much room for us to spend your monies :p

    I would love to go back to a fresh start with the knowledge I have now from TW. I would make suttle changes and save my money from smaller mods to get the big ones right off the bat.

    This will be a fun build to watch

    Couldn't have said it better myself.... I am in the process of prioritizing. Ordered my front runner racks again for the shell and cab. Going order my shell tomorrow. Getting the exact same one. You will have to teach me the ways of the short bed my friend. I used every square inch of that long bed!!

    Lol easy! The more you put on the roof racks the less you put in the bed. The basket I had made is awesome for this exact reason. I can carry fuel, water, firewood, and any other supplies or gear, stuff that would be kept in the bed without roof options. Our roofs are important real estate with so much potential. I do have a long term goal to build drawers in the bed for everything on my prisnu rack and swap out the pelican boxes for an RTT :spy: Until then I'll be playing with the idea of making a track mount to keep my Rubbermaid table stored under the basket, like this
