Default swore I'd never MOD

I swore up and down, till I was blue in the face that I would not modify my new truck. Well .........I think I have a problem. I did the lower bumper insert, looks awesome. Now I am changing the reflectors on the mirrors into working lights(Ford should have done this anyway) My electrician buddy is wiring the LEDS then i am installing them. I will post pics when done. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I think it is some sort of addiction!!!!!!

You could always say you are "customizing" if it makes you feel better...

Yep, you got bit by the mod bug. What is even worse is trying to think up new things to do that no one else has done yet....

I could tell you what I didn't mod on my '95 easier than I could tell you what I did lol. It was one awesome ride, and a definite head turner. I loved that truck to death, but it wasn't the most practical daily driver, not to mention when you start modifying important stuff like the drive train and suspension, suddenly you have to start beefing up other parts and they quickly become a huge money pit lol. Don't get me wrong, I'd do it all over again if I could, but my '06 needs to remain kinda practical so the mods to it will be fairly mild lol. These guys are right though, once you start, you can't stop..you'll catch yourself looking for things to change lol

You think it bad with a gas burner, then you don't need a diesel of any kind.
