Well, I don't often do too much to my truck but I figured I should at least start a thread in order to document what I have done to it, as well as ask any questions that I may need to ask.
So a little background on the truck: A police officer ordered the truck brand new back in 1998 and he ordered pretty much every single option that the truck came with. I still have the options sheet too
From then, my dad bought it from the cop and put very few miles on it. Almost two years ago now, I bought the truck from my dad for $5,600. He gave me a bit of a deal IMO, but he certainly didn't give me the truck free. I like to take pride on buying my own things and earning what I've got.
The truck had about 72,000 miles on it when I bought it and it's a little over 75,500 now.
Here's the options sheet for the truck:
Just some pictures of the truck
So, some things the truck has:
14 bolt locking rear axle
z71 package
Towing package
Heavy duty chassis package
Trans cooler
Rated at 6,600lb GVW
Now to get to the things done to the truck
The first thing I did when I got this truck was put a dual exhaust on it. I put a flowmaster cat-back kit on it. It goes into a Y-pipe right after the cats into the muffler and then dual out from the muffler. It has a flowmaster 70 series muffler on it, which sounds good but I personally wish it was a little louder. It has no drone of any sort.
Here's what it sounds like:

And just a picture
Next thing done was put in a Pioneer radio. The thing's pretty nice and I love the bluetooth. I can play all my music and answers calls from my phone
Put this trailer hitch cover on because it looks better this way IMO
I didn't do this, but the first owner put in Muth turn signal mirrors, so since it's free for me I'm not complaining.
Just two winter pictures:
Also, I don't have a picture of it right now but the first owner put in a $1,200 Roll 'N Lock bed cover which is absolutely awesome to have, but I would never pay what he paid for it hahah
Things I'm considering doing:
Putting in HIDs
A lift if only I could afford it
Taking the side steps off - just not sure how the paint and all looks under them...
Thinking about doing a CB radio but I don't have a good spot to mount the antennas
Any comments, thoughts, suggestions, etc are always appreciated
