What's up everybody!
I have been stalking this site for a while now and just recently decided to join in on all the fun.
I've been a proud owner of an '03 TB for a little over a month, and slowly but surely my aspirations are becoming a reality. Seeing as I'm a student right now the funds are very limited, but my goal is to have my TB where I want it before I move to San Diego in a year.
as of now the truck is completely stock. I have bilstein hd's and sj nitro8000's sitting on the couch right now, as well as marks 3" lift and z71springs in the mail. I'm looking to get some stiffer front springs ordered soon too, new tires are next on my list, and after that I'm thinking some auxiliary lights.
future modifications: (in no particular order)
Roof rack - most likely an inexpensive choice like a rage rack
Metal front bumper
sliders
Spare tire hitch
Recovery equipment
Aux lights
Etc....
Pretty standard build for this community I'm guessing, but definitely an adventure for me.
Looking forward to what's ahead!
Shawn
P.s. Anyone from Wisconsin?

Not that I've been on. I'm in the south east corner of WI (milwaukee) but I would bet that way up north WI has some great runs. The only action my tb has gotten to far is the horrible WI roads. they are seriously some of the worst.
In Wisconsin we only have two seasons, winter and construction.
