I spent over 30k in mods, one-offs and installations on my truck. So I do see your point!
lol i was helping u bro. up front and in the long run. the rationalization was for you. my wife pretty much thought a raptor was gonna be cheaper then the road i was gonna go down so i am good. and so far the agreement is "if we win the lottery, i can buy 4 more. one for each boy and for my best friend. the 4th for sleeper trophy truck. but not allowed to molest the first one, which is the family toy" 800 is a raptor, 500 is a lariat. 600 is king ranch, 900 is a limited, 300 is a xlt. i don't know the other trim codes off the top of my head


top 2 are my 14 501a aka lariat
bottom 3 are the 17 802a aka raptor

Very nice, the 14 looks really clean.

Any plans to do anything to the Raptor?

I appreciate it, glad to join and learn from you all.

Sounds good dlbb, your payments are enough. I'm trying like hell to keep my payments under $400, we'll see. Wow sold fast, wish mine would sell that fast.

Yeah my wife and I both believe in raising your kids on your own versus childcare if you can, better off.
