5k for a summer of 12 hour days doesn't sound like a great deal....

12 weeks, 5 days a week, 12 hours a day = 720 hours

5,000/720 = ~$7/hr and that's not taking into account any overtime you should have been paid for.

And if you can pay for insurance, school, left, gas, beer, pot, etc w/ only 5k, you're doing very well. $5k barely lasted a summer for me while I was in college.

I didn't work the entire summer, shoulda said that earlier. I ****ed around the first month, not working very much, and the first 2 or 3 weeks of august right before the semester started, so I had a solid 2 months of work and a little of the first month. Insurance cost me about 1k, school I paid my parents and they paid the school, paid half then and half now, and the rest, I just learned to budget wisely

I was getting paid about 9 bucks an hour, under the table, which worked pretty well, I haven't been able to get a job that pays that well while at school unfortunately.

 

I work 80 to 100 hours a week, for $25 an hour, and it pays for my fun, when I get to have it.


Indeed I am lifting my HD, and indeed it shall be sweet.
Spec is gonna be 8" Rize lift, 2" Add a Leaf, maybe King Coilovers(we'll see what the bank account says) Toyo Muds 37/13.50R20 on Chrome KMC Hoss wheels and a set of 4.88 Gears. Possibly Amp Reseach Steps if I can keep my HD sideskirts. Hopefully it'll be done in the spring. I priced it all out a couple of weeks ago when I had some time off, its pricey, but not as bad as I thought.

 

Perfect setup imo..

 

I am 16, junior in high school and here is my truck.

Plans are,
Remove rain guards
Remove Chrome door handles
Somehow get pinstipes off
then maybe a lift with rims/tires

 

Nice truck. Only thing I would change is the chrome door handles.

 

Yeah, I'm aiming for all high quality parts, just hope the truck holds up to the bigger tires and suspension and I am not disappointed.

 

Im a Freshman in College, FAU Baby!, I got this truck when i was a Sophmore in high school. My dad payed for it and i have payed for almost all mods except for cd player and speakers. Planning on getting 32-33inch Terra Grapplers over Summer and hopefully a 3" Body Lift.

 

Yea I wanna take them off.. but if I take them off would I leave the black stock handles or should I get mine color matched?

 

Color matched would look best IMO

 

I would go Painted to Match with Mark LT handles. That'll look sweet.

 

Im 17 yrs. old. Senior in High School. My parents put a down payment i pay for everything else. I work at Discount Tire Co. And i have a 6in. RCD lift coming soon!!

Hey nice truck I was looking through your gallery and I noticed your dad has a Dodge Mega Cab, also while i was looking at Truckin' magazine I saw the exact same truck. Is it?

 

can some one explain to me hoe to post up pictures?

 

Nice lookin truck bud! To take pinstripes off just sit in the garage one day with a hair dryer.... slowly heat em up then peel off. Use some quick detailer (maybe something better out there?) to remove some sticky residue... then clean ur truck up give her a nice wax job and viola, no more stickers and no one will notice. Just did it to mine (pics in gallery)
