THE DAMAGE!!!
So the question remains...do we really want to know how much we have spent on our trucks???
Well, I did just that; I put together some figures to see how much I have spent building this truck up. Bear in mind that this does not even include all the components and modifications I have brought over from my '91 4Runner as well as the labour hours spent by my friends and I building this up. Also, there are other maintainance expenses (e.g. oil changes, replacing alternators, etc.) and certain other labour charges when I did have to take the truck into a shop to have work done. All prices are also before sales tax and s&h where applicable. I did off-set the cost of the build-up by selling off as many of the stock parts as I could though.
Can you say OUCH???!!!???
