If you can hold off a few months, I would recommend waiting till the tow assist thingy is available. Not an expensive upgrade but you will appreciate it.
There are two schools of thought on this Forum. I'm in the never exceed GCVWR Camp. Exceeding the GCVWR opens you up to a whole lot of liability should you get in an accident, roll the truck over or go off the road. Without a brake controller you won't be able to stop in an emergency situation.
I don't mind the new front, but prefer the old one. The new Lobo grill reminds me of a Lincoln grill too much. Looks totally daft.
The new Tremor grill is nowhere near as good as the old one.
However, I do like many of the new features, such as the 360 degree camera and larger display.
