    Leave it to TW, a forum filled with guys who dump stupid money into their trucks, to bag on a guy for wanting to spend some of his raise money on some mods.

    Never change

    Congratulations!

    If you were living ok on your old pay, continue to live at that level and use the new earnings to improve your future life, not for instant gratification.

    Pay down any debt you have faster.

    More savings/investment.

    Your future self will thank you immensely.

    If you are set on doing something fun, use the mine to actually do something fun.

    Drive your taco on a fun trip.

    Glad to see you are saving for retirement. Why not pay off all of your loans, then mod the truck. Think how much you would have if you had no vehicle payment, no house payment, no credit card payment. Debt free opens the doors to a lot of things.
