I looked that rig up, she looks real clean! I'd buy it and change out the head and taillights for OE immediately, maybe some rims when those tires go.

Anxious to see the outcome. I used oe style led bulbs, brighter but not as bright as I hoped.

Gotta have 50 or more posts to sell here. Marketplace has become the defacto platform for most it seems like, but if you want to spend a couple bucks maybe autotrader or a hemmings ad, possibly Bring a Trailer...
Everyone is right on the foreign/domestic combo. We have an 05 Honda pilot for the wife, barely gets driven because she works from home, though it is our preferred long haul traveling vehicle.
I DD an 02 Silverado extended cab 4.8l 4wd, but my commute is like 8 miles round trip... And to be...
I had a CRV and I got t-boned in it and it was totaled. I really liked it as a run about, but long trips were not comfortable. I'd take the extended cab for daily duty for sure. Yeah it's more gas, but sometimes the comfort and utility are worth it, to me anyway. I say do it! Pics of the truck?
Thanks for the offer very kind of you. I actually snagged on a set last summer, but need the inner brackets and am real hesitant to drill any holes in my rig. Hell. It took me a couple months before I was comfortable enough to punch a hole in the firewall for my tach setup, lol.
I've been trying to find a way to reach out in a non creepy way- lol, but his web presence is lacking. Eddy said he would forward my CV if I am serious about it.
Holy hell! I just realized you live in the same town as Brian Harrison of Harrison's Rod & Custom fame. That's on my list of potential move to/dream job relocation spots, lol.
I bought one of these at the recommendation of @Catbox once you learn the conversion math it helps get you dialed in on what will work. Also try the https://www.speedwaymotors.com/ store for other options that might work better for you.
