Who is that luck SOB

Its prolly just LXExtreme's "quarterly parts refresh": underbody one quarter, body in another, engine next, then, lastly, everything else!

I refuse to even try to add up what i think $ wise i have in my truck over the past 6 years.

I have a spreadsheet with all the purchases (well, most of them.)

I refuse to hit the "Sum" button.
I keep it password protected so the won't find it.
We have all lost our minds with what we spend on these old rust buckets.
Dan has us fooled and now he has enlisted Beno to keep the illusion going.
I think I'll go to bed now.

I'll bet he's got more money in that pallet than I have in my whole truck, including purchase, 2 used locked axles, common maintenance items, lift and tires.

I noticed you have started taking pictures of big ticket items before they leave. Good call.

I'm curious... Was taking pictures prompted by my last big orders?

Good reminder on the password protection. I need to put a password on mine too. Right now it's on the 3rd spread sheet and doesn't start until about cell 70 so it's kind of out of mind out of site. I get a sick feeling in my stomach when I look at it, but it quickly goes away when I get to take the LX out for a spin.

I just call it my addiction errr.... hobby. Other people spend 1000's of $$$ on video games, DVD's, flatscreens, designer purses and shoes and other things that might be looked upon as crazy. It's all in the eye of the beholder.

I don't keep track, because if I did, the info would leak out and I'd have trucks for sale.

I tend to spend a lot when I first get a truck, but after they are up to speed and modded the way I want, they really don't cost much to just own. Since they rarely outright break, you can schedule your work and your spending, which eases the pain a bit.

No, not really. Sorry.

I was just amazed at seeing cool new OEM Toyota parts. I drool over this stuff daily. Ask Dan. He just pats me on the back and says "some day son, some day."

I nod my head and go back to pulling parts and shipping them out to you folks.

You also have "Pristine" which might as well be a bass boat.
