Option shuffle anxiety..

Hi,

I just joined the list today.

I just ordered my 97 last week. I can't wait for this
sucker to come in, as my current car is pushing 210k mi
and is about ready to die....

There is still a period of time which I can make changes,
so now I'm starting to get 'OSA'.

Here's what I ordered. Should I drop any of these?
Should I add? I don't want to push the $$ envelope
any more than I have.

        + V8
        + 4x4 extended cab
        + SLT+ (should I have gotten sport+?)
        + 5 spd
        + 3.55 axles (should I get 3.21?) I won't be doing
          serious off road.
        + max payload (hey, only $13)
        + P235/75R15 tires (are the 31x10.5 tires bigger,
          better, worth it?)
        + No sure grip
        + pwr overhead (compass, lights, etc)
        + floor mats (duh)
        + premium stereo (cd/cass). Should I go
          aftermarket?
        + body side molding
        + 6x9 mirrors (are these too big and gawky?)
        + fog lights

Truck will be mostly pleasure use (no towing, yet).

I'm sure this type of stuff has been bantered about
before, but since I'm a newbie...

Also, are those with 97's happy with the truck? I
searched the web before I ordered. I didn't find too
many disparaging (sp?) words. I think I made the right
choice.

Thanks.
