Yeah I'm already getting the powdercoating done. He said he'd repair a weld on the toolbox and powdercoat it glossy black for $60. That's not even coming out of the $300. I do like the sound of the Weathertechs. I think I can get them for around $200.

Okay, folks, I have $300 burning a hole in my pocket, and I have decided to allocate it to the truck! I sold my old OEM 17" wheels, so technically the money belongs to the truck anyway 
What should I do with it??
I recently added a Boost Bar and Raptor/HD tail lights. I plan to replace my chrome toolbox with a black one, but I have a friend who has a metalworking shop and he is able to powdercoat my current one for me, so I'm considering going that route instead of buying a new one. How about some Bilsteins? Or maybe Weathertech liners? EDIT: Other options could be a Yeti cooler or a new handgun. Or I could be smart and put it in my savings account
Any ideas?

Hmm. Didn't even think of that. Where did you get yours, Coy? Just found this one:

Also, while the idea of tuning the truck is appealing, I don't really want to run 93 octane gas. I'd rather stick with the 87 - it already costs enough to fill up. Is it worth tuning it if I'm only using 87 tunes?

. It for those hemi's and 5.0 owners that think their trucks are fast, you punch it at 35 both tires start screaming until 50 and you are 5 truck lengths ahead before you know it
