Well its tax time and we all im sure have thought about blowing it on the truck. That being said I thought it would be fun to hear what you guys would blow your money on.

there are 2 rules tho. First It has to be frivolous. no oil changes brake pads and the like. Second you have to be able to complete the project over a long weekend.

so here goes for me. with my thousand I buy blk nerf bars and black bull guard up front. bedline the lower quarter of the truck and all the bumpers and moldings. fogs behind the grill. Blue LED the interior white face guages. cargo mat for back. Used g1 navi seats up front. used navi wood steering wheel. and i think i have enough cashfor a case of beer and deffinaitely pushing it on time.

WHAT ABOUT YOU

Well... I could get 3.73's or 4.10's and change my gear ratio. Or maybe a snow performance methanol injection kit for the octane boost. Ultimately I would like a whipple 2.3 but its a bit more than 1 grand. :(

All easy weekend projects though. :)

I would not mess with the exterior of yours at all. I think it looks great as you have it.

I'll tell you exactly what I did with an extra grand...

Front bumper - $1035 shipped (you can omit the shackle mounts and save $80, to get yourself under a grand)
