This probably won't apply to you, but I was looking at the Amp Research Bedstep. It is about $250 and looks like it would make getting in and out of the bed much nicer on a lifted truck. I know I probably sound like an old man but whatever haha.

You guys all have good idea. I think i am gunna settle with the CAI. I am gunna git a K&N 77 series. It should go well with my Flowmaster 40 series. The bed step aint a bad idea either, but i am almost 6'4" and I can kinda just step up and in since it is 2wd. I also already have the toolbox.

Thanks for the input,

Zane

Power mirrors, if only to get rid of the wimpy looking manual ones the XLs have.

I don't know how much this costs, but I imagine $200 would take care of most of it.

Hey man, you have an XL. Why not power windows and locks? I have an STX, I'm putting power windows, locks, remote start, and alarm in as soon as I get the parts from Summit. $550 for everything. Probably the best mod im going to put on my truck. Im sure u could do power windows and locks for $250ish.

mine heats up in about 3-4 min under normal driving....

I vote tint, Cai, grill, shackles (unless you are 4x4 then just take out the blocks)
