I got my truck saturday. So I bought a Gator ETX Soft Tri-fold tonneau cover for $238 on Amazon. That's it, haven't even decided on which floor mats yet lmao. Cover works as expected though, great product for 238 imo.

 

a little over $11,500 invested ~ with selling stock / Extra parts about $9500 out of pocket over 5 1/2 years.

 

lost track x # of $$$ ago lol. Like 15k-20k possibly more lol

 

Just like building a rifle… Never add up the total.. At least not where your S.O. can see it.

 

But honey this is the last thing I want................I promise


I'm scared to add it up and I've only had it a month

 

Not much, ~$500, mostly meso chrome delete shit and some oem stuff like tailgate lock and bed lights, etc.

Ive had it for several months and while I got a laundry list of stuff I'd like to do I'm gonna ride out the warranty first.

 

I used to keep a running tally but stopped after I crossed 10K. I know a lot of if I could sell if needed but all the time and energy put into it is the kicker.

Lift, wheels/tires, skids, bumps stop flip kit, bumper with winch, sliders, gears, tune, on-board air, wire distribution kit, seat covers, lights, lights, and lights, ha, all the Meso goodies, roof rack, recovery gear, solar panels, bed rack, rtt, and camp fridge.

 

Nope..



Think of all the money I saved by not spending that $$ on dumb stuff like groceries and houses..

 

Hasn't been easy keeping myself in check, especially with the amount of time I spend on this forum.

<$1k in extras on my 2019, but paid it off a few months back. Extras only going up from here...

 

More than I care to think about sometimes, but less than I could have?

 

I lost count. I can say ive put more $$$ in this 2019 than in any vehicle Ive ever owned. Thats accessory wise.

 

I just have a list of what I've added, not how much each thing cost. Somethings I just don't want to know.

 

I'm not sure why I enjoy modding this vehicle more then any other?
Oh yeah, it's this forum!

 

The best advice I ever got from someone is "don't keep receipts, you can't put a price on things you're passionate about, if you do, it wont bring you joy anymore"

 

I too like to blame this forum as to why I'm always buying something for my truck. I mean, it is kinda true - saw a post on here with an OEM skid plate for $250 so I had to buy it. And of course I'm getting it Line-X'd because it needs to match better on my truck.

Yup, all TW's fault.

 

Well over $10k now where does it all go. I swore I wasn't gonna do any mods when I got this truck. I blame TW

 

Fox shocks 3000, stereo system 3,000, Wheels and tires 1700, armor 1700, bed rack/tent 1500, UCAs 700, Deaver leaf springs 700, winch 600, recovery gear 300.

I guess too much is the answer.

 

If you want to save some money ill take that C4 hybrid bumper off your hands lol.
