What kind of options like roof racks and running boards have you added after you bought your truck. I keep looking for things to add to my truck.

I want to add trailer hitch but apparently it can't be done? Dealer says they can put in aftermarket ones, but I don't want mine to say U-Haul on the back.

Why exactly can't it be done?? They sell it at Suncoast and I can't imagine that its too difficult of an install.

Probably because the dealer didn't know how? I am going to try a different dealer...

Pepper,

Did you switch the tinted headlights out yourself or dealer? What are the expected gains/changes of the GIAC tune?

Had them put in headlights
I happen to have a dealer with a great service department,and mod friendly
I could have tried,but trust them more than I do myself
Its been a looong wait for GIAC,but I accept it,knowing that they are only taking time to do the most comprehensive job possible
The gains are supposed to be around +100hp
Ps:I will have to go for another high speed run,once I have it installed

Maybe performance options since its pretty maxed otherwise....
