I find myself not able to think about anything less than 37" tires.

And I got 16" rims (meaning im screwed, 16 was a bad choice). There is no end to this nonsense.

I'm thinking I got about 9K on top of the JK. DO NOT TELL THE SPOUSAL UNIT.

Enough that it will be a contentious issue in my divorce proceedings,...

She just doesn't appreciate my Rubi.

Default Spending my kids' college money

I'm about $5,700 into my 07 Rubi Unl with another $5k easily planned (35s, Wheels, Gears, Rear Bumper & Carrier). I'm quite certain that before I spend that next $5k I'll find another couple grand of stuff I "gotta have."

It's pretty sickening to think of the $$$ we all spend on these toys. And I agree with the earlier post, when I see a heavily modded jeep I can't help but think that dude's got money.

I'd much rather fund this addiction than buy a pimped out sports car tho.

And if I ever satisfy this one, I'll add a Harley to the mix
