  1. Tonneau cover
  2. Rhino lining
  3. Mats & mudflaps
  4. Throttle controller
  5. Borla S
  6. Hood deflector
  7. Vent visors
I blew so much money in the first month of owning this truck. Todo list:

  1. Dashcam
  2. Rear light bar
  3. Dash speaker upgrade
  4. Truck bed lighting
How do you like your weather tech stone and bug deflector? Any pictures? I also hear you on spending a lot on these trucks. Im afraid to even total up what ive spent so far.

I like the look of the deflector, but it did initially make it necessary to slam the hood to close it. Haven't had to open the hood lately, so I don't know if that has changed since initial install.

1. Bilstein 5100's 4th notch
2. 35x11.50 R20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers
3. Decked Cargo System

Next will be
1. Leer 100XQ
2. Borla S-Type Cat-back
3. Ram Airflow CAI
4. Fox 2.0 rear shocks

Why the fox 2.0 shocks over the Bilstein 5160?

In all honesty I'll probably just put 5100's on the rear. I don't really need that high of performance rear shock with the little bit I'm off road.

Just thought it would be interesting for new and old members to see how everyone has prioritized their upgrades/modifications by ranking your top 3 you have completed. I have several I have not completed for varying reasons but for me my top are

1. Window Tint on all windows 20% ceramic
2. Tonneau Cover
3. Drop in air filter

Just out of curiosity, why drop-in air filter as a top mod? I noticed a few people mentioned this. Do you actually notice a difference in anything with the new filter? Or more as a preventative maintenance measure with a higher quality air filter?

No! With just going to the 4th notch the angle is not bad at all.

Did you do anything on the rear? Any chance you have any side pictures to see the rake (or backwards rake?) with your current setup? I'm considering doing the same...

I'm gonna group my mods cause they somewhat go together and were done at the same time:

1. Protection
1.1 - Husky Liner Floor Mats (front/rear) | Husky Liner Mud Flaps

2. Fuel Savings/Performance
2.1 - Drop-in K&N | Charcoal Filter delete

3. Storage
3.1 - Swagman Patrol Bike Rack | Decked truck bed storage system | Mopar Utility Rails
Did the drop in make any difference

i had the same issue with mine, i turned the two hood adjustment points up a little bit so that the hood would sit just a tad higher. It doesn't require slamming now
