ScanGauge is definitely the first step. I still haven't started the new job yet, so hopefully my tax rebate will be coming soon and I'll buy the SG with that. I have read the driving tactics and I've already started to practice some of them while doing errands and such.
Once the SG is in place, I'll start experimenting with aero mods. I plan on doing an aero cap, a partial grille block, fill ins for the fog light holes and I'm going to experiment with deleting that front spoiler. Since I have really nice heated electric mirrors, I'd rather not delete those, but I may turn them in against the side of the truck and cap the ends of them with smaller after market mirrors. I figure I can at least reduce their profile that way. I've already picked up some beaded seat covers so that I can hopefully cut my use of the AC this summer. I plan on tinting the windows (although it is illegal around here).
As far as getting a cheap beater, well, that might be a bit challenging. Anything that's not completely destroyed around here costs around 5 grand. At least, this is according to my friend who searched high and low and finally ended up financing a brand new Toyota Yaris. I may follow suit or I may stumble upon a really good deal, but I need to pay some bills first.
