    i decided against it, if i wuda got it id be dead broke, gotta always have sumthin for emergencies, plus no point in buying it if i cant afford to mod it, i also live in apartment.:( (for those who dont know, that means the most i can legally do to my car on the premises is change a tire),thers alotta factors...

    It's hard to say. My Jeep is stock right now except for the towing goodies, but that won't be for long, unless I sell it... but I'll probably always have something that's modified...

    *edit* Actually now that I really think about it, I don't even own a car that IS modified right now! AHHHHH!!!!

    LOL

    I'm busy working on everyone ELSE's cars.

    Join us some weekend D, I'm trying to get the guys together to go do a pretty good trail, like Carnage Canyon or Slaughterhouse. I think I'm going to take the Tundra up with a buddy from Colorado4x4.org to Devil's Canyon maybe in 2 weeks, you oughtta join us...especially if you go when me, my boss and another guy I work with go. I ride, they wheel...and they have some beefy shit. Aaron has an 8" suspension lift, along with 2 inch spacers, front and rear ARB Air Lockers, OBA, 35" tires, HUGE amounts of travel, that jeep is a beast.
