One of mine was totally blown, and it still drove sort of okay...2.  If you buy your own tires, you get the tires you want, not the tires they pick...  Mine had the stock k02's, which I thought were crap.3.  Is it that the 2012 is a 6.2, so it sounds like a truck is supposed to sound?  (that was a thing for me.  I went from 600+ hp 2017 ecoboost to a stock-ish 13 gen 1 because of it)4.  Stock shocks from the internet aren't all that spendy, neither are good tires...  It's all considered consumables nowadays anyway.All that being said...   I bought my 13 lead foot scab for 26k, then put new stock shocks all the way around, (1100), all new tires (35" falken wildpeak a/t's for 1200) and ****, it's a pickup thats fun, drives good, does fun shit off road, and it makes me grin.  My daughters call it the douchmobile and my grandkids think it's the greatest thing ever. At the end of the day I paid too much for it because ALL pickups are overpriced now, and these things are even worse because they have all the silly assed fancy teenager crap that we like.  If you're trying to apply adult thinking to buying one of these trucks, you're buying the wrong truck.. I'd say, just sit down, close your eyes for sec, and think about which one will make you grin better.  It may be as simple as how the shifter feels in your hand, or as complex as the entire performance spectrum at full throttle on the sand at 75 in the whoops.  Just feel for the grin, then go buy it and don't look back.   It's just a thing. If you decide you want a different toy, do that after you've played with this toy for a while...   We're all old enough to know there are damned few things in life that you absolutely have to have two of at the same time in order to enjoy them.  Pickups are not on that list for me. I have spoken.</blockquote>
