Default Regrets - post them here

I'll start:

spending the money on 5:13 gears for my front D30 - which I shattered and upgraded to a D44

Spending money on a spare tire extension so my larger tires would fit on the stock carrier instead of just removing the spare tire until I ordered a new bumper w/carrier.

Your turn......

I also regret purchasing 2011 door panels for my 2007 jeep. I was able to get them to work but ended deciding that I like the '07 style better.

I only installed one and have never gone back to put the original door Panel back on.

I regret that I didn't buy a 4 door. When my dog is in the back I don't have any room for gear.

I regret not thinking about gear ratio when I bought my jeep. It slipped my mind despite making that a buying point before I headed to the dealer. Now i'm stuck with 3.21's.
