Depends on how long you're going to keep the truck imo.

If your going to be selling it in a year or two then I would pay it off but if you plan on keeping it for a while then I would do a 6" lift.

Honestly, unless you really want to get into the performance side of things, I wouldn't go with a cam/converter deal. It's an extremely expensive road to start going down, and since I know you want a Dmax, it would probably just feel like money thrown away when you get rid of the truck in a few years.

I wouldn't do any serious performance modifications to something that you weren't planning on keeping for a LOONG time, but that's just me.

Of the things on your list, I'd colormatch the rear bumper plastics (leave the valance black IMO), 1.5" BL, and TGs.

I still say use that money for mods. If you had 5 grand, I'd say pay it off.

Everything I did to the truck in my sig, I did while paying on it.

Like you said, it'll be paid off this year regardless. Have some fun with that money IMO

I say go with a 6" RCX... But why go with a 6" lift and only 33's? Why not 35's?

I plan on keeping it for a long time, but if i find a deal on an upgrade i'll take it.

Thanks for your input Dan. Thats kind of what i was thinking on why i don't want to do performance mods. And yes i have been browsing for a d-max, but havent found anything worth giving up my truck for.

The loan definitely gets my vote

I could pay it off right now, but i like my savings up because i dont work in the winter and go to college. Thats why i've been paying on it for a while, and one more year doesn't sound like a long time.

Well here is why, if i lift it on 35's, i will have to crank up and have just as bad as cv angles i have now. if i do 33's i can completely crank down the suspension and have flat cv angles while having a good stance.

Just go piss away the money at the casino. :dunno:

ha no.
