It's scary how much people spend on modifications on their 4wd. But as they say each to their own.  ;D

I love my $$$ pit.
Buttt i do feel i use it to it full potential. The more pin stripping and "love" taps the better it looks in my opinion.
I have thrown thousands at mine an consider it well spent..
I bought a toy not a investment.

Life's wasn't meant to be fair.
Well so I've been told. ..

Every dent and pin stripe on mine tells a story or brings back some memories
