I'd for sure lose the mudflaps. I'd personally remove the running boards too, but some people like them and use them too. I think removing them makes the truck a bit sleeker and look lower. Wheels and tires are always the first thing you should upgrade IMO, as far as looks. A set of 20-22" chrome or polished wheels would look great, with a good fat tire. Something like a 305/55/20...etc...The truck has lots of potential for sure.

Honestly, its a beautiful truck as it sits, but the one thing I'd do is get rid of the tacky antenna cover... Its so '80's...

From the other side of the camp...you should get a nice 17 or 18" wheel with some 35" AT's or even a more aggressive tire. Removing the steps, in this instance, will make the truck look taller. I agree on the mudflaps, ditch those. Putting the 20" tire combo will nullify that it is a 4x4 truck.

Guess the 164k+ miles caught up to it, huh Zach? What happened? Is that Lexus towing you?

New to the Group as well....

My old truck was a 06 F150 SuperCrew Lariat 5.4 with the 6.5' bed. Lost a cylinder in early November. It could barely tow my 8500 lb TT in the Sierra's (foot flat to the floor on almost any grade). I traded it in on a 2008 F350 short bed, 6.4 PSD, FX4 with the Tuscany Upfitters package, 34,000 miles, paid $37,000 for the new truck. I love it.
