Would be nice, but it starts getting a bit expensive.

Ya, I dont keep trucks for long so I dont bother doing anything more than exhasut and wheels. Stock power is more than enough for my application, Im more concerned with durability.

Don't think I'll ever get a new truck.. Maybe just me, but diesels have gotten a bit more expensive. If I do, I'll find a used 6.4 or mayb get an f150 ecoboost.
