Cheap accessories you've added

What are some of the cheap accessories you've added to your truck that you were glad you did. I've only had my my truck for a few weeks so I haven't done much. Put the DeeZee tailgate assist on yesterday. Next up is the SEIC mod. Still debating on whether or not I want a fixed idle or if I wanna install the pot for a variable idle.

This is the ELM327 adapter I use with laptop. It allows access to HS and MS bus on the Ford products.

ELM327 USB V1.5 modified for Ford ELMconfig CH340+25K80 chip HS-CAN / MS-CAN | eBay

You might check to see what is a good bluetooth adapter if you plan on using a tablet or phone. Have not seen any with the switch for MS bus access.

Not exactly cheap but I have the Edge CTS2. It allows stationary regens. Now, FORScan can do this. Now sure it the android version of FORScan can do manual regen or not. Maybe someone will chim in. You do need a good adapter with fast access.

I like husky floor mats, X-ACT contours, like the softness of them

Pop&Lock electric tailgate lock and Fumoto oil drain valve were two low cost accessories I get a lot of use out of.

my truck came with weathertecs but I'm not a fan. They are too hard and slippery. Makes it difficult to get my wallet out without slipping. Also makes it difficult to clear a path after eating a bunch of Mexican food.

I'm gonna be getting some huskys as well.

I wouldn't call it cheap but I had ClearBra installed by a professional. Just about any leading surface that could get hit by a rock got covered. The tailgate has 6" on the top and 6" on the bottom.

The mod that will save me the most time is the Fumoto Drain Valve.

I won't take a vehicle into the mountains here in Colorado without a set of WeatherTech floor mats.

I'm really, really trying to not do much in the way of modifications to this truck. I did too many mods to my last truck and I just got tired of it.
