I voted different drivetrain, cause I would probably go 2wd if I started over, but I'm not sure, I do use my 4wd, and 4wd launches are bad ***. I would have done my mody way different though.

Thats what I was thinking. I have the perfect platform (for me) and exactly how I want it. I would have done the mods differently..

I wanted the standard cab V8 5-speed, i got it, but i didn't get the step side i wanted. I had it totally repainted with rally stripes, wished i woulda went a little different color and two toned it. Woulda spent less on intake, done the exhaust right the first time, not have wasted the money on the system that never went in (still for sale). But, i've actually got a lot of deals on a lot of the stuff i've did to my truck, so that's why i did it. I got a paint job that i had been quoted to be from 2000-4500 dollars for 700 and it's nearly perfect (still needs buffed).

I would have gone with a single cab, and a long bed. And done different mods, but at least I have learned research is the best way to go about buying any new parts.
