    If I had to spend it all on the truck... A 3" lift and or audio equipment

    If I didn't have to spend it on the truck.. I could knock a chip off my debt...

    realistically id probably just spend it all in bars and on food within a week or two

    since i cant/don't want to do any of those options,
    i voted to get the implants lol

    1st option would be to bag it

    2nd option would be to DJM, hopefully coilovers come out soon. so DJM +Coilovers, QA1s in the rear with beefed blocks, Sittin Sic Sway bars, new rims 19"s, Stoptech 355 MM BBK up front and rear SOS discs, and put another JL W5 and re-do my sub box.

    assuming it had to go to the truck as if you won it from a shop, then maybe 4.56 ratios +an ARB locker and bumper (see Drew02's truck), and whats left should still get me 4 B5100's unlifted, maybe a DT header too.

    5 grand would clear my credit card and my bike payments...So that would be that.

    If I had to spend it on the truck...I'd get the blower. The ARB and gearing can be bought part by part and done at some point down the road. The supercharger is a one shot kinda thing.

    current situation? i would save it. except for my home, i owe $0.00 in debt.

    if i didnt need it, i would put it towards an outstanding hunting trip, for elk or maybe moose. this would require me to hide it from the wife...she would save it.
