Not sure if the wife will approve, but you should get a mural of a naked woman on the side of the truck.
Yes, that would surely go over well.

Also, naked lady mud flaps.  And the angel/demon lady stickers on the rear windows.  Oh, and a set of nuts to hang from the hitch.

Intimidating. So what are the roof lights for?
I dunno.

I like them so I ordered them.  :huh:

My grandpa always had them on his duallys, my dad always had them on his duallys (but not on his last couple 2500s) and I grew up liking them.  They just look the part, I suppose.

I happened to see a set of those today, chrome.

I lauged at the thought of them on my truck. 

Well, you have a photo of the front, what do you think about switching to something like a Silverstar?

It's from the movie Kill Bill Vol 1. If memory serves me correctly, in the movie it belong to a gentlemen who was having intercourse with a comatose woman mercenary who then woke up, beat the shit out of him, and stole his truck.

The Philips equivalent are better for sure.  I helped a guy at my old job install some on his Outback and the result was noticeably improved lighting, but none of this blue-headlight bullshit.

They are an option, not standard.

I was talking about the Xtravision bulbs, just did not remember the name of them is all.

I had them in my last vehicle and really liked them. 

I think I will give the high beam bulbs an upgrade and see how they look.

You would find reasons to use it, if you had access to it.  Nothing like the big diesel power.

Could be, but not for something this size. Like I said, the same-size 2500 at work doesn't have them.
