First of all I love this truck, as a 17-year-old I consider myself extremely lucky. As a first car, I was shocked when my dad bought it for me. It has the 5.3 liter V8, Z71, 4x4, WT interior, and cloth seat.

 

Now to my question what should I do next? I have been saving up for awhile for some accesories. Should I get:

1. New escalade mirrors.

2. A better sound system.

3. Mudflaps and bed rail protectors(or should I just get them resprayed?).

4. Or the most expensive thing, get new leather seats.

 

Heres some pics with my new denali grill.

It is actually your call, I would say a better sound system, but it is all subjective. congrats on the truck - (warning, might catch some flak here since your truck was purchased for you and we had to buy our own)

[Steveman]

Haha yeah, well I still have to pay for a little less than half of it. Its going to take me awhile to get the money together, but I have already started the process of setting aside funds.

The truck looks awesome!

 

Of the things on your list, I'd probably go leather seats or sound system. I think it'd be a little too much chrome with the esky mirrors and the denali grille. A leveling kit would also look great.

 

Some cheap (free) stuff that would look good: Pull off the lower valance, and debadge the doors and the tailgate.

ok, only 1/2 the flack then...

 

Nice truck, do the sound system mods first. You will probably enjoy it more

 

Although, after a few days or weeks of living with lint infested cloth seats, you may change your mind and go with the leather

Sweet truck man! I would go with a leveling kit and the sound system first.

I vote for leveling kit (if you go down, it is cheap, if you go up, a little more expensive, but not that much more), very cheap mod and debadge the sucker!

Very nice truck. It's your call on what mods to do. I could never imagine my dad buying me a truck when I was 17. Was it for graduation?

[slimjim2525]

Nice truck, ask your dad if he can buy me one too.

Congrats, nice ride............See if your father can get me some gas money for mine!!

Nice truck! I'd run the ideas by your old man, and let him have some input, bet he'd appreciate the thought. Congrats

If it were me at 17 (or even now) I'd do the sound system first. I disagree with you about the cost of the leather, as I know I could never do a sound system in any of my vehicles cheaper then I could do leather (assuming leather is about $1500).

Very nice truck...You are very lucky. My first car was a Vega. I know that before your time but it was a true beater.

 

You must be a good son for you're dad to be doing that for you. Keep up the good work and don't be a pain in the A_ _ for him.

 

1.Level It.

2.Leather it.

3.Music.

4.Enjoy it.

Of your choices I'd do the stereo. I wish mine had a nicer stereo(stock kind of sucks...) but I like to drive with the windows down and with new exhaust, I don't care as much about the stereo anymore.
