For one thing, I think that is a COLLOSSAL picture.

First thing I think you should buy is a toolbox. No truck is complete without one. then maybe a 3" lift and some bigger tires.

The ironic thing is you posted it using tinypic.com. lol

You need to resize it at tinypic.com where you uploaded it. That is, if you can, I don't know if they have editing tools. If that doesn't work, resize it on your computer, and upload it and re-post the new link.

wow... nice truck. when i was 17 i got my 98 silverado. if i were you, if its 4 wheel drive, id do bigger fender guards, put a stereo in, tint the windows to the legal limit, maybe toolbox with a shortened tonneau cover. then get some guages like a temp gauge in, get some interior work in, maybe you will be like everyone else and their moms and get a cold air intake. definately, the first thing i would do is get all body defects off and polish that red to an immaculate shine. go to www.autogeek.com for some more information on how to do a proper process to get that thing shining like a mirror. i was getting ready to buy over 300 in waxes and sealers but i just decided to do all the body work and re-paint it myself. this summer hoods getting another paint job. since the auto shop fooobarred it. but thats just the tip of the iceberg. i plan on doing fiberglass work on interior work for a custom gauge cluster/speaker location on the pillars. bubba welcome to the world of trucking. congrats on your new found glory and let me tell ya. go buy some truckin' mags, four wheel mags and start idea brewing. have fun but make sure you know your local and state laws for mods. oh... id strip the truck of all badges and the plastic piece on the doors. lol. i know its a lot of stuff. ok well maybe a lot of a lot of a lot of things... but you asked and i threw out a lot of ideas.
