I know what you mean I've spent a pretty penny myself once I found out I could make my truck better than stock. Heck I like this site so much I paid to become a member and all without regrets.
I stopped for a look and found way too many ideas for my truck.
My wallet is a lot lighter and my GF thinks I have a computer chickie on the side..... Thanks TS..!!!! JB
Yeah, some of us have gone "mod mad" after seeing all the cool stuff we could do to our rides. Have fun man...that's what it's all about. (Smoke 'em if you got 'em...)
Seee-ya!
Jim.
P.S. Post some pics Verndog...we like to watch too!

I will be taking pics on Thurs, after exhaust, to give everyone my "phase one" update. Actully I've told my wife after the exhaust I'm pretty much done.....but something tells me headers could be an income tax possibility (shhhhhhhhhhhh!)...
Now funny thing is, wife got up this morning and there is a knock on the door, it's Federal Express with a box for me from truck performance, with my gibson tips for the exhaust.....ohhhhhhh...the look I got. You guys are well aware of the look by now I gather....???
What can I say...I'm obsessive....and she knows it.
I can tell you are gonna become a member of the "TS Modaholics Anonomymus" soon. Meetings are held monthly and we encourage you to openly admit that you have a problem with modding your truck.

yes. oh my, yes. the disbelieving look with the slightly rolled eyes? yep.
walking in all greasy and dirty and sweaty from the garage after the n-th trip to the parts shop for yet another socket, clamp, nut, or other esoterica you didn't think you needed is easier for your lady to deal with if you also stopped by the florist on the way home. trust me, it works . it might even get you a back rub and indiana jones-style help getting all the gunk cleaned off at the end of the day (think raiders of the lost ark, on the ship).
LOL, all you guys are correct! Before I knew of this site, I never would have thought to lift my truck, put larger tires on, yada, yada, yada........ My wife is always busting me ordering stuff for my truck, and posting here, checking new posts, you all know what I'm talking about.
Thanks TS, for making my truck awesome, and my wife pissed off at me!!!!!!
