I love the large mirrors and their ability to delete that blind spot.

You get really used to those mirrors. I never had a problem not seeing anything with those. Matter of fact, I almost prefer them.

same here I ripped my hitch off for the rollpan and didn't have anything to tow anyway, the SS mirrors are still big enuff to be funtional. I don't need to see the sky when i drive. smaller frontal area = more areodynamic when I'm doing 120. plus the signals help let idiots know your merging

Most of us are not going to spend alot of time on the back doors. Unless you doing competition or one of you buddies convinced it would be cool, the rear fill isn't really nessacary.
Front component make a huge difference in the sound. Normally a good 3-way in the rear doors does the trick. If you have a subwoofer, you could most likely get away with a 2-way.

And as for the mirror debate going on, stock looks the best
Why change something styled to the truck? I dont think the drag on the mirrors are that much of an issue, and going 120? screw that
My truck does 75 down the highway, good enough for me

Reverse Sensors
Leather on the Seats
Low Control Arms
Grille (at least for my truck, stock grille matches my paint PERFECT)
Flares (i like the lariat ones)
Hood (hate aftermarket hoods, ours look great stock)
Steering Wheel
It's really all personal preference though.

A backup camera is a sensor...
Two tones and custom paint jobs can be real cool
Grille... Billet
Flares ... Baja and Prerunners
Hoods... I enjoy a clean, moderate hood scoop.

the key is to try and use OEM parts if possible, like my truck which started out as a run of the mill xlt, I have found some cool OEM parts that fit my theme:
HD headlights
HD tail lights
HD valance
HD sport tubes
HD pedals
OEM fender flares
Mark LT handles
and eventually I'll get the saleen hood
