Default And the award goes to.....

I would like to know if there is anybody out there that has spent more money on their truck than I have. How much have you guys spent. Who has the best truck. This is not a best basher thread, so lets roll out the bling.

My pictures are comming soon.

Above:

WRANGLER : Savage 25, pro-line jeep wrangler, 4 spyder gear mod, aluminum diff cases, aluminum gear boxes, hot bodies vented steal brake, high torque throtle servo, fuel filter, rechargeable battery pack, PCM receiver.

The other partial truck is the new all aluminum & titanium savage i am building. I make a decision on a part by part basis as to what is the best component to add. I do not recommend anyone to begin a project like this. It is more expensive than I ever imagined and is taking a lot of time. But on the other hand its fun.
