I think I only have about 7k in the Raptor
F1
Bedrug
RPG stage 2
ADD Venom
TMX 20" light bar

The frustrating part is our raptors cost us the same amount stock as your stock + mods...

 

[mjyst3]

You guys are nuts (in a good way)! I have about $1400 in mods so far. No need to post pic for me. I am sure all of you have seen a stock raptor.

You guys keep the dream alive!

My wife thinks a Roush Raptor only cost 50k and comes stock with BMF,Toyo tires,Kooks, Vision X,Ridgid,and focal speakers!

 

[Deinonychus]

My wife thinks a Roush Raptor only cost 50k and comes stock with BMF,Toyo tires,Kooks, Vision X,Ridgid,and focal speakers!

Then she ought to buy the idea that that a complete front and rear suspension upgrade that includes dual 3" bypass front shocks can be had for $2,000

 

[Goofball]

I have a spare truck at the office I drive when my raptor is being worked on and my wife always "what are you doing to your truck NOW?!?! I tell her what Im doing but I say the cost is 50% of the actual so it doesn't bite me in the ass one day.
