    I’m wondering what you guys are thinking in terms of using $4-5k for a lift, wheels and tires, or dumping the $5k into the TT setup due to release soon.

    I am too cheap and probably won’t buy either :cool: but I’m bored at the doctors office.

    Still stock completely capable!
    If you Offroad more lift tires if you want to lay a beat down on some f150 and rangers the TT. The TT will also help with off-road because of torque but lift and tires will more. Also if you have a front winch I don’t know if the TT kit has been modified to allow for a winch and IC yet. Lift and tires would be my #1 investment if I had $$ laying around. TT once its been modified to work with all the Off-road gear.

    Lift wheels and tires. Can buy one thing at a time. Turbo won't get you laid, clazzios and meso mods get you laid.

    I’m with that. The F150 with the eco boost is actually kind of fun to drive though. I thought a turbo in a taco would make it a little more enjoyable.

    There’s always next bonus/tax season I suppose
