Keep it simple with a 4-5" real lift, cai, exhaust, and moderate level program (70-90hp).

Drive it.

I will be taking the headache rack off in the morning and will get limo tint on the back windows probably next weekend along with a level kit, alignment and new shocks.

Good news, I only put 1,200 miles on it this week..

Hope they pay you good for putting so much wear and tear on a vehicle. I put 1000+ a week on my company truck but they pay all maintenance and gas on it, I hope they atleast take care of you with that stuff.

I took the headache rack off yesterday and put it and the factory wheels up for sale out where I am working. I assume some redneck will need it on his truck soon and will hopefully ****** up the wheels also.

This company pays mileage and a truck allowance so it is pretty well covered. The mileage I drive is why I didn't want to buy a new truck, way too much depreciation too quickly.
