    Guy that used to live next door had a 'vette, a Harley, an old chevy 4x4, and a DD. His old lady would get on his ass about selling some of his rides. He'd roll one out by the road and over price the shit out of it. Never sold any of them. He did buy my '86 Nissan 4x4 and added it to his collection. LOL. Maybe it's the same kinda deal. Just trying to shut the old lady up for a while.

    Thats why you are a mod, I would have never even thought to put include the amount of gas into "what I have put into the truck" price.

    Let's see, (125K/approx. 19 mpg) x $3.00 per gallon = $19736.85

    Anyone looking to buy an 05?
    125K miles, DCLB, PreRunner, I put on new tires (3 times now), about $20k in gas, and I have personally towed a boat and loaded with dirt, the peace of mind knowing that the truck can handle boats/dirt is priceless, so I will come down to $100k just because I need to move it fast.

    He replied to me this morning, heres his reply
    Obviously you no nothing about this truck. I've had the truck Dino tested and it is putting out 320Hp which is a 94 HP gain over stock. The 80k is including the cost of the fully loaded truck too.

    Ok....He claims a 114 hp gains...with AirAid cold air intake, AirAid throttle body spacers, JBA Titanium Ceramic Headers, MBRP 100% stainless steel dual exit exhaust system, Uni-chip performance chip with Mild tune.

    Airaid "cold air intake", Gave me about 2 hp. If that.
    Airaid TB spacer gives 0
    Headers are good for about 10
    His dual exhaust might give 5 (havent dyno'ed one, but I have dynoed similar ones)
    And the unichip might give 5.....lets say 10 though.

    So.....My education tells me this totals 27.........

    Chris I think he used your number but thought they multiplied each other:
    2hp(intake) x
    10hp(headers) x
    5hp(exhaust) +
    10hp(unichip)= 110hp

    he must figure the TB Spacer give the extra 4hp totaling his 114hp claim
