unless u gotta take the mountain trails to your new job in a couple weeks, i would do the audio first. it makes owning a vehicle that gets 12 mpg around town a lot more enjoyable driving.

Lift it! 35" tires will look smashed in there if you put those on w/o a lift.

i vote secret option #3. screw the cosmetic or audio, and do something performance wise like a cam or something.

I dont know why some of you are hating on audio it will thump but not rattle anything due to the fact I am putting dynamat on the doors and floor so it has good quality and no one will hear it outside like most of you think
Some of you just dont like as much bass as I do but and you all have a point I spend more time inside than looking at it but with the 35's a level will work just a tight fit

However I really haven't off roaded much lately do to the fact that my tires are pretty much shot but i will be off roading some getting ready for the hunting seasons this fall i spend a lot of time outdoors and thats why I am wanting to get the lift done

I already have alpine type S speakers in the back plus some nice pioneers up front and left the origanal 3 1/2 in the dash and the amp will replace the stock one and the dash speakers will run off the headunit so the speakers will be great plus 2 12' infinity subs to provide the thump coupled with the dynamat will give me great staging and quality so i dont have to crank it so high

but I do love a lifted truck it just makes me happy so we will have to see but consensous seems to lift the truck so far
