any chance you know the part number for the foam cup holder? we came from a Ford and one of the first things my wife noticed was the passenger door didn't have a bottle holder...

I have it at work, I can post it Mon … A search on Ebay will give ya a bunch of hits as well

I've had almost 3 years to spend what I did. In order of cost:

- "sport" wheels and michelin defender tires
- morimoto hybrid headlights
- side steps
- tazer dt
- banks pedal monster
- hellwig swaybar

Tried and removed:
- sumo springs
- airlift 1000 hd

Not as much as some, but I'll get there. Seriously considering next upgrades for performance, including cam + heads and long tubes or shorties.

I also sense a pattern here: the 2 most expensive items on my list have also been the most enjoyed. Think the stars are telling me: spend more, enjoy more.

Just this morning on our way to get coffee, my wife said “It sits pretty low, like a 2WD …. Can ya lift it a little ?” …. That’s why we’ve been married 36 years !!!

So, what to do if your better half won't fall for the "I won it at the tournament" pitch......

I used an economic rationalization.

I bought a Big Horn because it had the best discounts and incentives, even though I wanted some Laramie and up features.

For example leather seating, so I installed Katzkin myself, I bought aftermarket tires and wheels for about the same price as the 20" factory upgrade (then sold the 18" wheels/tires when the truck arrived).

So I did spend in the neighborhood of 4K, but I had saving in place because of the Big Horn purchase, and I didn't have the added cost of financing all the features up front.

So for the rationalization............"technically".........I didn't spend anything on customization.

I get that rational thrown at me every time my wife "SAVES" $25 simply by spending $250. ;)
