New tires and tonneau cover!!
Hey all, I was in school (mechanical engineering tech) and couldn't do anything on my truck in a couple years.... living like a student sucks! BUT, i managed to at least keep my truck!! As well, finally have some money to start throwing at it too
 First, wrapped a set of new tires on it - 245/40r20 in the front and 255/45r20 in the rear. Having the staggard tires really puts a mean stance on it. Also, I built a tonneau cover to protect my cargo... and have someplace to put it. Oh, it's also sitting about 1" lower all the way around. First picture is old tires (for comparasin), rest is new! Feels so good to be able to afford to work on my truck again!! Next plan is a 6.0L or 6.2L swap, engine compartment overhaul, then air-ride... amongst other things.

Re: New tires and tonneau cover!!
The tonneau cover looks really good on it. Not a fan of orange vehicles, but it looks darn good on your truck.
