How much money do you have into your truck?

I'm only talking about mods. How much?

I have just around $1,500 in mods done to it so far

An the list if I have of what i WANT to do, comes to just above $5,000 more...

I know I'll never get my money back out of it if i sold it, but i never plan on selling it.

There should be a lot more to come. I have a pretty good list going. Programmer, CAI, Retractable Tonneau Cover, Sound System, Lift, Tires/wheels, Interior LEDs, Grille, Train Horn, Bed Rug, Truck box, and a bunch of other things. Im putting a lot of money into this truck, and its really sad to think I wouldnt get anything for it if I took it to a dealership right now.

- Tint
- G.A.P. Grille
- XLT Center Console
- Bed Mat
- Other stuff that escapes me right now

Remaining things I'd like to do:

20% tint - $100
Heads and Fog Xentec 6000k HID - $165
Infiniti Door speakers front and back - $105

I keep thinking about lifting, tires, etc.. but its just dumping money into nothing it seems. I want to get some decent offroad lights to put behind the grill and that'll do me fine. Maybe put some 33x12.5 when my stockers run out. Can I do that and stay stock height.
