I had planned on going in to pretty much order a 2010 black.. with 6" pro comp lift. 35 x 12.5's, and skid plate.. but they had this ..that they had just brought in from an off road convention... It was love at first sight. Everything you see now was from the dealer.

Wow. Thanks guys. Its a 6 inch pro comp lift like I wanted..
I am reluctant to say exactly what it cost mainly because I dont want to end up feeling like I got Jipped off too bad. Heres the break down pretty much though.

I traded in a 2007 Acura TL Type S (with everything from bluetooth phone, to gps, to voice activated windows) for 22,000

I was looking in the ball park of close to 30,000 for the truck itself

I was then in the ball park for around putting in 10,000 after market, I mainly wanted to do it through the dealership for the warranty..

I got around that price range with an easy bill to pay.

Heres what I am thinking about now and would love to hear some opinions on what I could do better..

-dual out flowmasters
-cool air intake
-good all weather mats
-roofrack

heres another question.. could I fit a skid plate under the bullbar they have on right now?
The feedback is much apppreciated guys
