MACH1, I haven't done any mods yet. I snatched the K&N filter out of the 250. When taxes get back I hope to put in a banks monster exhaust, then some sort of chip. I've been looking around at the different ones and have not decided yet. The truck is big and pure red, I call it the Red Head with the big Hips! External mids will include aftermarket running boards a new lower valance with fog lights (TruckMaster I think) Husky Molded mud flaps painted to match and maybe some kind of accent strips. The motor pulls as it should, and so far I only lost .5 mpg on the average tank of fuel, which is now 38 gal instead of 26.

I did not pay sticker, they were asking 21,900 and I drove home in it for under 16K financed. They were real proud of the 2000 Truck, not as willing to deal. I looked at several lots for "similar" trucks and 16K was the going rate and they knew that.

I love it, and it will pull my gooseneck trailer with my 1900 pound Alky Funny car Just fine!

I would like to "mod" it out some. Can't afford a ton of money as my race car eats all of my cash, but I would like to add exhaust, maybe a superchip or a TB spacer if they will help, and the standard body packages..
