I was trying to remember and I did a couple mods in the 1st week on getting the truck. The only that is listed is Tinted windows and also got window vents!!!!! BUT the 1st major mod was the bed cover and I did that about 1 yr and half after getting the truck.

For me, it was a Catalytic Converter.

I had no choice in changing it as the exhaust was loose when I bought the truck and had cracked the Cat.
I did, however, have a choice in the type of Cat. I went with a Magnaflow Direct-fit (P/N 93302)

Side Note: FORD wants $1700 for the factory Cat.:lgh2:

My first Mod was new tires, cuz the ones on it when I bought it tended to hydroplane with just one drop of water. :p
I avoid buying anything from the Stealership. I needed 1 new center cap for the FL tire, FORD wanted $89 for 1. I went to Van and Truck world on Wellington near the Costco, $66 for a new set of 4. :)

you should polish an aluminum plate and block your radio hole off with that. i filled the extra space in my dash like that.

right now i have my stock Ford radio, and two high end pioneer decks, and one cheapy pioneer, the only two that work are the ford and cheap pioneer, cept i can't hook either of them up. so technically, i have not modded my truck, i misrepresented myself
