Keep in mind, you'll still pay 30k+ for a 10 year old truck with a cummins these days. Unless you are hauling heavy ****, the hemi will do you fine.

The sport bumper is awesome, and I think the rear bumper is paint to match, there are a couple of the sports up here that I'd kill to have, a blue one and a kind of maroon one. Sooo teh secks

I'd like to see that little diesel engine too, but I think i'll keep gas and save some cash-ola

I want to upgrade to a sport with ram boxes so damn bad. But I have mine half paid off now and all I need to do is get rid of the chrome, find a hood and get a set of wheels and no one would know the difference. I love my ram and really like huge after market.

99-- good job, or looks good from pics!

I loved my civic because their wasn't a big after market and I had to think of unique things. But hated it at the same time. But with I my truck, there are so many mods, it's insane. I'm just trying to mod the mods, if that makes sense. But when you start looking, you shoot me a text or something and I'll let you know the way to go

They had a huge market, until 01. The parts dropped off big time. picked up a bit in 2006, but not much. 2000 and earlier still have new parts coming out

Its been a while,

well yesterday I bought this thing



ITs not the best but its very nice and I got a really good deal on it so I couldn't pass it up.

Ive been using my craftsman box for a few years and I ran out of room so it was time to upgrade.

Ive got a decent box, sometimes i wonder if i want a flat top box or not...



Also this should be in the "latest purchase" thread.


Unless you traded in the BMW and get around town on your snap on tool box now.

Oh sorry, it's been a while.

I still have the BMW, I've done so much work to it at this point, it's been a good car overall though.

There's a decent sized aftermarket for the 9th gens (2012+), but not anything like pre-2000 (as you mentioned). Still, I could easily get 400HP out of mine if I wanted to, but I've had my fun. One is enough.

At least there is a market again. I loved my Honda, but there were no parts for me to buy other than doing a Kswap. I checked the forum a month or so ago. There were less than 30 posts in a year. I miss that car, but I was bored with it.

Teh sexy! I love how menacing the G8 looks on a close front shot due to the front fenders being slightly flared and this shot here really makes the GA look really good too.

id say about half of my box is full, but that leaves me plenty of space to grow. I got mine for $900 which was a steal.

I went ahead and ran power into the box to charge my diagnostics laptop and my power tools. I also added the Snap-On stainless steel top.

Its a great box, one of the best purchases I've made, I just cant believe I got it for so cheap.

How in the hell did you get it that cheap? I've got probably 1500-2k of tools, majority of it is Snap-On. Currently moving them around in a few tool bags and a cardboard box. Pretty much as soon as I graduate school I'll probably be in the market for a box.

My old boss has that same box in gloss black with chrome trim and spent over 3 grand on it and that was for a scratch and dent special.
