Arrow how much has everyone spent on mods???

hey, just was curious what everyone has spent on their truck mods. i realize this topic has been through here a couple of times, but just thought i'd post it again. i've currently spent close to $4500, which isn't to bad considering i'm still in college. my love for my truck has often overtaken the need for food.

It took me a while to look up all my recipts om evreything I have. There is more involved in how much I have spent than what is in my sig, also I couldnt find all my recipts so this is not a total price. But for most of everything I have on my truck comes to apx $4,097. If all that went to my truck payment I would owe less than $10,000, go figure.

$3,500 plus minus so I'm a cheapskate.
On the other hand, I lease the truck so will be stuck with most of the mods when I give it back. Might sell it outright and buy out the lease and keep the difference if any. It is adult driven, has only 12k miles after 18 months and still has 60% original rubber and not a mark on it so I might make out OK.

about $1300 so far, but since my truck is paid for i rationalize that this is still less than the interest on a loan would have been.
