As for mods, the best way to go is air pressure in tires at sidewall max, and then grille blocks work pretty well. Of course you will need extra attention to temperature in the heat, but that brings up the Scanguage or Ultra Guage. I prefer SGii, but to each their own. And of course the main list to checkout,

The truck is mostly for fun and hobby. I have a couple show cars and I used to travel to a few shows where I would tow them rather than drive them, so a truck was necessary. I don't do that much anymore now that I have three kids. It's nice to be able to run down to the local home improvement store and get stuff when I need to without having to borrow a truck or get a trailer out of storage. I'm also contemplating a travel trailer before the kids get too old to do that sort of thing.
The Civic is strictly a commuter now, so I'm thinking about stripping down what I can (power steering, back seat, etc...), pulling mirrors, wipers, etc... A Scangauge is definitely on my list.
