Mods to the Mega Cab
Just sharing the mods I did on the Mega Cab. I think it made all the difference. No new tires or lift though, I have to tow with the truck and the drop bar won't work if I do. Also being only 5'3 doesn't make it easy either. 
I added Bushwacker extend a flares and had them painted to match.(even though it's NOT Inferno Red as DC says-it's Blaze Red as per the label on door). I added the Undercover hard tonneau cover, that works great! I also added a LED light bar under the tail gate in the rear. Still have to put on the chrome sills and kickplate. This is what I've done thus far.

Not leased here-bought and paid for. It was a early Mother's Day gift for me. I have a little over 2000 miles on it since I got it April 30th. Around town, the mileage is running from 11.9-12.6- Only one small highway trip, I averaged around 15. It keeps getting better as I put miles on it. The tonneau helps too. I've only seen two other Mega Cabs running around here in my area-a Silver and another Inferno Red. I get looks everywhere I go-it's funny to watch-especially since they don't expect a woman to be driving it.
My vanity plate points out who's the owner 
I love the flares on it! It really improved the looks on it by closing up that huge space there around the wheel wells. If fact the night I brought it home, a guy in a Hummer 2 kept checking it out and slowing down to look it over while at the stop lights.

Absolutely beautiful rig!!!. I am a red fan as well. I may do the fender flairs as well on my new 2500. In the pic with the Mega behind the Dakota,,,,The 2500 looks like a monster and looks like its gonna drive over the Dakota.
