Oh sweet Jesus!
As far as how I plan on using the truck: The truck will mostly be used on road but I do plan on Raptoring off road as well. I live in CA and off roading in CA is like most things in CA, over regulated and more difficult than it should be, so my off roading will pretty much be reserved for road trips and camping trips with the family.
From what I've seen here I think the CAI and a tune is absolutely on the list. Not sure about the exhaust yet. Any advise on the CAI?
If you are on pavement which you seem to be then you don't really need the headers and tubes....just order 5star tuner from Mike (5Star vendor on here) and get a CAI module.
That's it- will give you plenty of sound. Performance wise the engine is plenty powerful as is however talk to StainlessWorks they are very helpful with questions on sound etc....
I have a Volant CAI and the sound is perfect for me. But for more power you'd need to talk to the guys who do this for a living and see what you can do.
If you are on pavement then I would go with cosmetic mods like the vinyl work, LED lighting, tires and wheels....depends on how deep your pockets are with that.
You don't need suspension upgrades for camping though- don't waste the $$
