New F-150 and new to the forum

I have been browsing through some of the past posts and found a wealth of info on here. Thanks fo everyone sharing their experiences and opinions.

I just got a "new to me" F-150. I traded in my 2001 F-150 reg cab, XL, 4.2L, 140000 miles on a 2005 F-150 2WD Super Cab XLT w/ 5.4L motor w/ 19000 miles. Paid a little over 17k for it, so I think I got a fair deal. The previous owner had also installed a Magnaflow Cat-Back exhaust system on it which is very nice.

What other modifications would any of you suggest doing to this truck? I have put 3 tanks of gas through it so far and am averaging about 17 mpg with a mix of city and highway driving. I definitely want to get a bed liner and upgrade the stock 235/70/17 tires. Any other suggestions?

Again, I am glad to be on here and thanks in advance for all the helpful information!
