Soooo, I ordered the truck Sept 29th and it was delivered to the dealer on Nov 6th. I took deliver on the 12th. My 13 was a great truck to which I had no complaints, however it was also my 3rd nnbs and I needed a change. Plans are as follows:

4.5" Zone with 3" rear block and 1.5" bora's
305/55 Toyo AT2's on stock 20s for winter
22x10 AF's on 33x12.5 Toyo MTs for not winter

Airaid MIT with filter
Dynomax bullet 3" single dumped over axle
EFI Live with autocal EVENTUALLY

tint/strip
debadge and remove lower valance
CM tailgate handle with chrome pull
replace reverse, license plate, and ext dome lights to LED
billet emblem
stubby antenna
truxedo titanium tonneau
RCX black series 30" curved in grille
bed post caps

I think that's pretty much it.

Love it! Like I've said, can't wait to see you make it your own. You always have clean trucks.
 
Like I said James.... Looks great and plans sound good! :thumbsup:





I'd grown pretty fond of the 14'/15' front clips. So, when the 16' came out, I wasn't a fan. I still don't care for the chrome non CM'd front end. But, the CM'd looks pretty nice IMO. There's a silver one I see local..... Mmmmmm.

Accomplished a lot so far
Debadge, devalance

Installed stubby antenna, billet emblem, tonneau, bed post caps, and airaid filter although I still have to install the MIT. Later I'll be swapping in the LED reverse and license plate lights.

Also just ordered cargo dome LED replacements and Lloyd carpeted floor mats

Will love the 6.2..idk how the 8 speed is since I have the 6 speed but man it's fun. With bolt ons I'm right around 400hp to the wheels. Enjoy lol
 
Thanks guys!! It's at the shop now for the lift. And yes the 5.3 can be had with the 8-spd also

Well found out today my truck has "active aero shutters" which makes mounting my rcx lightbar (or any lightbar) behind the grille possible.

Truck will be sweet as was your old one. Love the cm 16&17 front ends can't wait to see pics of progress.
