Custom builds question...

As a new Tacoma owner I find great enjoyment out of this forum. I just think its rad the amount of knowledge and passion (some would argue blind loyalty) that brews here....

The custom build threads blow my mind. As a numbers guy though i was curious: Has anyone ever itemized the dollar amount per mod on their custom build?

 

Some people do that yeah. I personally don't.

 

Too much?

 

lol I'm quite sure by the time I'm done I'll be glad to not know exactly how much all of it added up to.

 

Ha I did some quick math on all the mods/additions I've done on my last couple trucks. Both had roughly $15k into them and neither were 'done'. I've got a fair bit done on my 4runner now and next thing I want to do is a SAS with 1ton axles/links/coilovers.... do the math on that and you can hit 10-15K in parts before counting any labor into the swap.

 

I would be the same way! Lol.

With 2 young boys and having just bought our new house, I think blacking out the badges is the only mod i see in my future!

 

I think some do start out doing it but either forget to tally or lose interest maybe...

 

I can probably guesstimate within a couple hundred dollars for every vehicle I've ever owned. But since I was eighteen or so every mod has had a purpose and was part of a plan. I suspect its probably easier to lose track for guys playing high dollar dressup.

 

Or can't bear to really think about it

 

There's atleast two threads addressing cost
