A lot of times you can buy "take off " aluminum wheels from the dealership where they have removed them and installed some aftermarket wheels and tires. I got a set of 4 steel wheels and tires for $150 that way. I am goijg to use the steel wheels to mount some mud tires and use off road so I do not damage my aluminum wheels off road.

Trucks shouldn't have carpets in my opinion, I'd actually be ok with no cars having carpet, it's just something to keep water in the winter.

I have been thinking of taking my carpet out and getting the rubber floor mat for mine.

I just bought a W/T yesterday and I actually really like not having carpet. It rained yesterday and when I jumped in I instinctly started to kick the mud off of my shoes and thought, "Wait a second, I don't have carpet to get dirty" You gotta live having a truck that you can clean out with a leaf blower.

I would like to have power like though. I'm not sure if that's possible to do on my own or not, but I'm going to look into it.

It is the base model but you can get Power Windows and Locks, carpet, as options. I ordered after-market carpet (super-dense plush) and bought Denali rims from Craigslist ($150 for 4, a deal). You can see photos on my profile. Oh... I took out the center 1/2 seat and added a topper/bed rug. I like my little truck.
