So far, the only mod would be a hard cover for the bed (Undercover brand). Aside from that, I have been reading up on the proper driving techniques. I really want to get the UG first, so I can see the mods benefits as I do each mod seperate.

The ones I am currently considering:
-block off front parts in grill
-add front skirt (not sure the name)
-add side skirts
-wheel covers
-maybe new tires in future

That right now was from a few days of searching other peoples mods to trucks. I really have not seen much on whether or not intakes/filters or exhausts actually help. Engine mods I havent seen much of (pulleys or any bolt on parts etc).

So if anyone has suggestions on certain engine mods that might help pay for themselves let me know. I probably wont be changing the gearing, as I do occasionally need to tow my motorcycle.

Also, does anyone have any input on switching out fluids to help increase? A very quick search led me to see many people switch to synthetics during oil changes, and lighterweight gear oils etc. Microlon is something my friends have done, not too sure about it though.

Any input?

Thanks!
