Default Hello from Rhode Island

Hello everyone! I have been reading through this forum like crazy, drooling over a lot of the trucks in the project section. I hope to one day be able to do some motor work to my truck, but for now I am happy. I had just done a detail of my truck, and being black it is pretty tough to keep clean. I did a wash, clay bar treatment, cleaner wax finished with a carnuba wax. Thank you to everyone on the forum for the knowledge and I look forward to more posts to come. Here are the specs on the truck.
2006 rcsb
4.8
5 speed
2wd 3.73 gears
I made a 3 inch (from the y back) exhaust, mandrel bent with an original 40 flowmaster, turned out in front of the rear tire. It sounds pretty mean, I hope to have a sound clip up here soon. Only other modification I have done was putting a set of second hand 5 spoke rims on. Here's a couple pics showing before and after cleaning.

Thanks everyone!
gs7793- I use the truck for work a lot, so the bed is always being loaded with wood, dirt, etc. I would love to drop it but need the suspension travel.
