This is a forum that I like to see! I have had it on another website for my LR and I thought it would be cool over on this one too!

If you don't feel conferable posting how much or you feel like this is a bad forum just don't comment!

If you want to include:
Money amount, what you purchased, and maybe a few pictures of your installed purchase!!

Havent spent too much yet


03 z71 with 75000 miles for 14500
grand for deductible (unfortunately)
bought an hd hood (175 bucks already white)
i've gone thru like 5 different subs now but since i still have them all i'll say i've spent 750 in the last year (most recent purchase was a set of mtx 8500's in a beefy sealed box for only 200, dope deal imo)
infinity kappa speakers (130)
pioneer 3400dvd touch screen (350)
plastidip (5)
HID fogs and lows (80)

so all in all minus the truck itself i'm in like 2500 or so

I think the last time i counted it was something in the ballpark of 7-8 grand Mods wise
2300 for the lift
2000 for rims and tires
exterior accessories probably 1400 there ( brush guard , grille ,lights,tail light guards, mirrors ect…
700 all moog suspension bushings, ball joints , idler arm , pitman arm ECT………..
interior crap - 5 -600

parts awaiting my downtime to install - 500

Lets not discuss replacement parts lol i do keep a log of every receipt of work or parts I've ordered or done and that alone titles about 8 grand
over a 5 year period

I have about $37k in receipts, which doesnt include any regular maintenance expenses. I'm done. Didn't realize how much I was throwing into the truck until a couple months ago when I was bored and just curious and ended up adding all the receipts.

Going through receipts makes baby Jesus cry...

I try not to think about it. It is what it is and as long as the truck is how I like then its all good

Man, your truck's come a long way since last Ive been on here. Looks good.


Good thing Ive done everything to my truck myself aside from the paint. Thats a ton of labor cost saved right there. If not for that, my truck wouldnt have half the mods it has right now.
