HOW MUCH HAVE YOU DUMPED INTO YOUR TACO...?

Ever sit down and try and figure how much you've spent on your truck....
I've kept a Mod folder since buyin mine in Feb. of '13, and roughly have dropped around 18k......and still looking for stuff everyday.......might have to get a job...

 

Your list scares me because it like a roadmap to my upcoming bankruptcy...I either have done or am planning to do the stuff on your list!

 

18k?

$270 for tint so far, and an aftermarket air filter. That's it.
