How much $ in extras have you spent over purchase price?

Speaker upgrade-550$. Toolbox and things in the tool box-475$. Seat covers-25$. Screen protector-10$. Self made bed stiffeners-45$. Cai-150$.

 

$8280. Supercharger, wheels/tires, and sliders being the main culprits with a smattering of smaller items like the URD short shfit, 2LO mod, and brake controller thrown in.

 

Probably close to the purchase price of the truck when I bought it used. TC +2 LT, King 2.5's, arb locker/compressor, gears, TC gusseting, bumpers, skids, sliders, light bar, cap, few sets of wheels/tires, few electrical goodies

 

8,9k $ Canadian

 

2019 -> 2500 ish
Softopper ~$900
nerf bars (350-75) = 275
Sliders - 850

RAV4 Knobs for headunit 24.85 <--- hands down best purchase
Total Spent: $555.02 USD

Spent this over the first six months of ownership. I'm a cheap skate and wait for sales or Amazon warehouse deals. Got the Husky liners for $114 total (currently $187 even with BF sale) because i bought them separately like a month apart with different sales. Next purchases are dashcam and seat covers, then seat warmers to put under seat covers before next winter.

trying to vision it. tire rack only has silver to model them on. they are also not uber expensive

 

Well, yeah...if you include Future Wish List...

Current add-ons + Current Wish List just over $3K.

The Future Wish List I would guess $4K-$6K. But I got my work cut out negotiating with my wife! lol

Don't negotiate. Asking forgiveness is always easier than asking permission.

Mine didn't like that the SR5 looked like an old mans truck and said to make it look better. I took that as an open invitation to do everything I wanted..........

 

I've been down that road...

I met my future wife in Feb 1989 and we married in Mar 1990. Peaks and Valleys for sure...let's just say, I've learned to evaluate and engage with financial tact.

Setting aside funds for my projects and funding our Savings--dual task management--works wonders!

I try NOT to remind her of the purchases she makes on my Amazon account; she uses her own credit card but sometimes mine gets charged. That's asking for a fight! lol

Yeah, I have to deal with her personal comments about my intentions but once the dust settles, we can live in peace and happiness.

At the end of the day, that's all I want in my life.
