Default Got a decision to make

Well I was going to trade/sell my truck and get a Cummins. My parents went back on their word even though i have the finances for it. I really dont know why but needles to say im pretty pissed. Ive done a lot to my truck, and i told myself I was done with it. My dad mentioned to do whatever else I wanted to my truck, but like i said, I told myself i was done. Even if i were to do anyting else to it, I cant even think of anything else to do. A lift would require new wheels and tires and im not getting wheel spacers, plus itd be like a $2000 investment in just the lift. What do yall think?

I guess I do need new shocks with 65k miles? Maybe a CAI I just dont know.

What i got now:

2.5" HBS leveling kit
Custom black FX4 Off Road sticker
UWS toolbox
Line-X
Flowmaster super 44 si/do 4" tips
15% tint all around
18x9 Xd Monsters
295/70-18 Nitto Trail Grapplers
Recon LED smoked taillights
Recon LED 3rd brake light
09-10 F150 FX4 badges
Gryphon programmer
Trailer tow mirrors
Westin brush guard
Smoked cab lights

If you have the finances for the truck you want then get it. Screw the old's decision.

I agree...sometimes parents think they know best (and sometimes they do)...did you pay for the truck yourself?

Off topic, interesting that you were talking about the Cummins...been throwing around getting a diesel in my head....I drive 50-60K a year, thought the truck might last longer than my F150...why were you interested?

I agree, you really don't have a reason to complain

However, I am a gearhead, so I understand...why not take the money you were going to spend on a payment, put it back, and have a bigger downpayment for later, or pay cash for a new ride later? It is what I did...not everyone can do it, but you have an awesome truck
