Default I think I'm a truck guy now

Wanted to introduce myself and my first ever truck. I'm 28 live in SE Michigan and have had 11 cars/jeeps at this point, but I finally decided I needed a truck. I hunted around and found this 2015 XLT SCREW with the 3.5l EB. It's silver and as much as I hate gray cars I pulled the trigger. I feel like I got a decent deal from a used car lot, truck has ~70k miles and I paid $23k






The truck has some of the typical Michigan corrosion, but I'll be moving down to Texas next year and this is going to pull the Camaro down there. Other than the light towing I like to get out and explore a bit. So far I've had the bed line-x'd, changed almost all of the fluids (trans pan drop happening today), blingy rear diff cover and tinted the front windows. Since I'm planning on selling the Subraru for a 2nd house down payment in Austin I want to make the truck a little nicer and I'm planning on:

-rolling hard tonneau cover
-upgrade the headlights with something
-slightly larger wheels and tires that are more snow friendly for next winter
-trailer brake controller
-maybe an exhaust + tune...

Other cars currently in the fleet include my '99 Camaro z28 that has been modified a bit and a bone stock 2019 Subaru STi:
