Default How much? $$$

Just out of pure curiosity how much do you have invested into your truck(s)? I got about 2 grand in mine... every bit to get it running right.

6500 for the truck to start

950 for tires
200 for stereo head unit
200 for the muffler install and pipe bend to refit my spare
200 for the flares
200 to Herculine the bed
200 for the headlights
150 for one piece ACC vinyl floor mat
100 for the 60/40 split-bench to bucket conversion
80 for a grille
20 bucks for the tonneau on craigslist

Soooo... ~2000 put in on top of the initial expense.

Everything else on the truck was either gifted, donated, or scrounged from trades:

JL 13W7 came from my old acura, as did the JL amp
Nerf bars and mirror covers were christmas presents
Rims came from trading the stockies to a guy on craigslist
K&N was already installed at the time of purchase
Rain / Wind guards already installed at the time of purchase

To-do, but will happen over some time:

~1500 for 6" suspension lift
~1000 4 new tires, 18-20" nitto terra grappler / goodyear duratrac
~700 4 new rims, 18-20" moto metal
~800 for custom bed bar build and freight cost
~250 full re-tint with windshield strip
~150 for replacement molded carpet
~100 for full detailing to repair scratches, etc from my buddy, Mike
~100 for 2010 rebadge

i started to make a list on excel, so far right around $2000 plus $3700 for the truck, and its only been 10 months, most of that was for tires and some accessories, the rest were some tune up parts that i'm still not done with, nothing is ever "finished"

HAHAHAHA yeah right! I don't even want to know how much... lets just say I gave $6,000 for the harley



And I gave $2500 for my maroon truck wrecked but saw a receipt for the wheels and tires for 2200 and motor and tranny 2700 from a week earlier when it had be wrecked and fixed. Needless to say the guy couldn't get it fixed again or the insurance company would have dropped him.

New bumper, fender, hood, grill shell, cv shaft, steering pump, and tie rods... I was good as new haha (yeah)


I'm prolly around the $30,000 mark not including the cost of the trucks!
