My experience, the more you mess with things the more trouble you have. Motor and suspension mods, no way, I keep them stock. Like the OP, I do simple and basic items.
Somewhere in the linked threads above, someone also installed these. Very low profile and I figured I'd give them a try. Ordered through aliebaba or some such, took 6 weeks but things are a mess in China right now. They come with double sided tape, and I drilled 2 small holes each side to zip...
I went with ARE V-series, very basic topper. Fit and finish is excellent. $1900/installed. I also added a power port, 12v and USB, switch runs the topper lights. I'm really happy with it!
I would of thought it would have a voltage fail safe also but I tried twice, wasn't gonna start on it's own. Jumping it also made me lose XM until the next start and threw a CEL, scanned it, said shifter position communication lost. Drove fine though. CEL went away on the next start also.

Does anyone know what the factory batteries are rated at?

I was going your same route until I stumbled upon these latest products. Turtle Wax.
Really some amazing stuff, pick your favorite manufacturer, they all have a ceramic line. Very user friendly.
Finally got around to putting some power in the back of my truck today. Found this set up on Ebay, didn't need the USB ports but it was part of the package and may prove useful. I'll clean up the wiring in time.
I guess we all have different expectations and experiences. For me, I love the system. I now hear things in songs I've never heard before. I'm not a fan of loud music, for those that are I guess the system weaknesses show more?
I'm several thousand miles away from my first oil change but I'm researching all the different drain valves available for the 5.7 hemi. The Stahlbus valve is my favorite option so far but I'm wondering if there are clearance issues with the sway bar?
Anyone try one and switch to the Fumoto...
Adding the larger tank, will it screw up your distance to empty readout? Not a huge deal but I wouldn't let the dealer screw around with factory installed items unless absolutely necessary, not for 3 extra gallons.
