Yup, that is maintenance money, not upgrade money.
You need to add a zero to that number to even begin thinking about meaningful performance upgrades.

Well, you almost have to be able to do at least basic repairs in order to afford to drive this truck.

Just looking at the posts you have started (Almost stalled, Fuel pump diagnosis, Lift issues, Weird transmission shift, Oil leak, Accelerating issues, and several others), you have too many issues you need to address before even beginning to think about upgrades.

Lift issue cant change anything it is what it is with spring spacers. Weird shift just added tranny fluid and shifts smooth. Almost stalling, fixed it it was just a loose ignition coil connection. Truck runs just great no issues. Only when it comes to starting it which is no biggie. 2nd crank starts right up.
