Another thing to think about, on any vehicle, is to get the towing package. Usually this consists of heaver shocks/springs, all the wirig harnesses, a larger radiator, and perhaps the most important feature, a transmission cooler. That's the one thing that I think about benefot a lot of folks who are blowing transmissions. Heat is a transmissions worst enemy. You can buy aftermarket coolers and install them yourself, it's pretty easy.

Overall, I'm of the mindset that you can never have too much truck. You'll pay for it in extra gas for sure, but you can buy a lot of gas for what it costs to repair any of what's going to break if you're pushing the limits of your vehicle.

The only thing I'd have done differently if I had mine to buy all over again? Diesel. Sure, they're loud and they stink, and they're more expensive to service, but wow. The amount of torque and HP you get? Wow.
