FINALLY! Some more West Coast guys! Welcome. I'm about 2.5 hours north of you. Nice lookin truck. How many miles are on that thing? For me, I'd do the exhaust. I know it's a little pricey, but it's a big difference. I've got a mild Flowmaster on mine, but it sounds so good, really makes you enjoy how your truck sounds.
yeah i've noticed out here in so-cal there are a lottttt of truck guys, the majority of bakersfield is lifted trucks haha, i think im gonna end up following that trend, i really do love the raised look, plus i wanna go off roading more.
i was gonna get a new exhaust actually, but when i debadged the truck and blacked out my taillights, the front end just did not set well with me, plus is fog season here. so i wanted to get it all taken care of now. exhaust will be a bit down the road, still gotta get new tires, a lift kit too and other stuff.
miles=212,000 original motor and tranny. the guy never hauled anything he said, so knock on wood, i hope it lasts me a long while before i replace them. i dunno how expensive it'll be to get a new motor and transmission
