You listed the leather seats in the mods... How much did that run you? Where from?

How do you like the truck with the lift and larger tires on stock gears? Does the tune take care of the larger tires or would you consider regearing?

I love the truck, it rides perfect. Road noise is just right. Stock gears are no problem. Remember i dont tow, and if I do maybe 2x a year to put boat in and out. The truck did loose a little pep off the start and if going up a slight incline..minimal though. I was still able to light the tires up with traction control off and without the tune.

The tune makes the truck feel like the tires are stock..Amazing perfomance. It is fast, esp off the line..I am running 91 performance tune without cai. I had to put 92 octane in since no 91 close by. Since im loving the acceleration off the start, my mpg are around 14.5 now..not bad..without tune it was about 15mpg.

The CAI came in yesterday, so going to hopefully install it today, and retune with the other 91 perfomance 5star sent me.

The tune was well worth the price..It unleashed alot of power!

I noticed you said it had cloth and you went to heated leather seats. how much did that run you? Did you have your cloth seats reupholstered or did you purchase leather seats?

Very nice truck, lots of tasty mods.
My only comment, and not to be critical, but is how you cut out he amp openings in the back wall. Did you use a rusty butter knife? j/k.
Everything is so clean and well done until you see those cuts for the amps.

If I could make a suggestion. They sell that small black molding that some people put on the edge of their door to prevent door dings. Its maybe 1/4 wide. Maybe you can get some of that from the auto store and place all around the edge of your cut out space and it would give you a nice clean line all around the edge.

Again, I'm not busting your chops, the truck is amazing. Its just those cuts take away from how well you did everything.
I know they are behind the seat and not really seen but you know they are there, and now we do too. :-)
I'm the OCD guy who crawls under his truck after I wash it to paint any metal that might have rusted so it looks dealer new so take my comments with that in mind.
Enjoy your new ride friend.

Have you adjusted the speedo to the corret tire/wheel configuration? Why did you decide to get different wheels? Why not put the same tires on your stock wheels? Think you'll install a catch can?

Just wanting to hear your rationale!
