Cargo Kit, custom wrap, 2” lift, AT tires, roof rack, powered BT speakers, center console. Maybe the rear bumper and spare tire carrier too. The great part is all of those things can be added over time or done all at once up front and rolled into the purchase price.

Yeah just saw that. Bummer.
My understanding is SEMA does offer Friday admission to the general public. Not sure if those tickets need to be bought in advance or at the show. I expect the information can be located on their website. Of course one day is not enough to completely experience the event but I guess that's better than nothing. Just taking time to view all the vehicles on display outside the convention center can burn a few hours.

I know some people who go to SEMA for the Auto Detailing aspect of it. Every major detailing supplier is there. If you get to go don't overlook this aspect of it. I watch numerous SEMA YouTube videos on product launches. Good stuff

Thanks! I'll look into it, but it seemed to me that the friday deal for the public is outdoors and probably won't see a lot of the stuff on display. I hope to find someone who has been to the friday event and can tell me about it.

I was thinking the same thing but 1000 towing capacity isn't much. I rent a U-Haul trailer about every 3 years to run my John Deere lawn tractor in for service but I looked up just the weight of the trailer and it's over 1000 lbs. I don't have one but even something like a single jet ski will be above 1000 lbs. Good thing John Deere offers home pickup
Why not get some ramps and load the Deere up in the bed? That is how I plan to haul my Gravely.
