So, I bought this '04 Dessert Runner (V6 2WD 5spd manual) just because I needed a truck. Now that I've been lurking around this forum for a couple of months, I have a new interest... modding my already awesome fronty!!!
First off though, I have a slight leak in my rear sliding glass. Also, is that Royal Purple stuff the best oil for my truck? Seeing that it's synthetic, does that mean I should still oil change after 3k, or should I wait till 5k? I've heard 5k, but you all have more experience with this particular line of vehicles.
It's my only vehicle for now, but I'll probably be getting an older Honda Accord as a main travel vehicle soon.
I'm leaning toward a kindof pre-runner look. I'm loving the glass fender wells and bedsides that I'm seeing out there. I'd like a bit more lift, bigger tires, more power, etc. However, I still want the basic creature comforts. You know, the A/C, heater, radio....
So that's where the title comes from. I want to be able to drive this thing as a normal-ish truck (read street-legal), but I'd like to be able to have some good fun in it as well. Oh, and I want it to look TOUGH!!!
I attached two pictures I grabbed offa here as examples of the kinda look I'm liking.
How realistic is it for me to be able to do mods throughout the year and still drive this thing around?
Thanks for any and all help!
