what to do next???

i thought i had finished my pickup and was happy with it but for some reason i want more and i dont kno what to put on it that is worth doing? i snorlked it and put smokestacks on it. i have a weber card and intake and it runs awesome. dana 44s with 5:38 gears turning 42in. tsl swampers? what is somethin i could do that would make my truck just awesome in the mud because i can go under water until about mid windshield and i get scared but it hasnt died yet. the only thing i can think of is a locker but i dont kno if i should weld it, spool it, or get a locker it isnt my dd. what do i do?
