Water pump and hoses, vacuum hoses. new rims and tires, new exhaust, installed new dash pad, seat upholstery, steering wheel, gauge cluster, radio and speakers, AC compressor and AC system.

I was opposite. Bought the C10 then bought a 77K5 blazer for a “mud truck”
Then gas went sky high and the C10 was burning half a tank a day to drive 30 miles to school
so I got a 99 Z71 for 13k and I paid half my parents paid other half. First and only vehicle my parents ever fully bought was a 08 z71 LTZ as a graduation gift because I got a football scholarship.

I bought an '08 Frontier in 2013 with only 8,000 miles for $14,000. I regret letting go of that vehicle.
