I finally added up all my receipts today :ybrick:. I thought it would be intersting to see how much coin everyone has forked out.

I included maintenance and add on's but I probably missed a thing or two
and I also included the price of the vehicle

Also include a recent pic


....$23,640.33

Let's see who wins:behindsofa:

I just bought mine so I only have a couple hundred. But that will shoot up here pretty soon once I get the basic maintenance done.

That's $21285 with zero maintenance added in, or my last suspension setup, or any of the other stuff I have upgraded. I'll stop there. I don't want to think about it anymore.

You're off to a good start
 
Probably around $10k including the truck 2.5 years ago, mantinence, repairs, and modifications. It'll always be going up, but the way I see it is it's my hobby, I save money by doing most of my work on my own, and I may put $5k into an older truck, but that's way better than buying a new 4Runner. There I'm loosing $15k in depreciation, not wanting to mod it because of warranty, not being able to afford to mod it because of the cost of the truck, and having to make car payments and pay interest on it as well.

At least that's how I justify my addiction. Plus our 4Runners have just about hit the bottom of their depreciation curve. I'm sure I could sell mine for what I paid for it 2.5 years ago, and I could always sell off most of my mods and get a good bit of that money back if I wanted.
 
I'll play

Should have put a cost on this build. Here you go.


I bought this Limited in Oct 2010 for 6k. It had about 165k on the odometer
A few days latter, I bought a wrecked 96 4runner for $600 but had to pay $40 to get it towed back to house.

I got my Downey off road Bilstein coil over lift kit and pan hard bar from it.
Parted the rest out for $3k

Got a free Sequoia Motor and sold my 3.4 motor for $1200

Spent
$175 for exhaust work
$150 for Eclipse Navaigation off forum
$200 for spidertrax
$80 for ghetto cold air intake
$40 for OEM floor mats
$400 for TB, WP, 2 Coil Packs, A/F Sensor, h20 sensor, Cat, Freon, AF and oil change
$100 for valve guide seals and valve cover gasket
$100 for electrical compents for the swap (relays, fuses ,butt connectors, heat shrink tubing)
$110 for electric fans
$75 for new battery (when I first bought it)
$125 for ricer radiator
$100 to shorten drive shaft
$80 to have AC line made
$100 for the AISIN manual hubs
$120 for new wheel bearings

So I have about $2375 in purchases
plus the $6000 for the 4runner
For a sub total of $8375
minus (the sale of the motor, the parts runner) $4200

So I have a grand total of $3,975 in my ride.

Sent scrap metal (steel, copper,and aluminum) to the recycler and got $300

Sold the 99 limited Tranny to Doc for $400 so the new grand total in my ride is $3,275.
 
Truck $3700
Tires $900
Suspension $850
Tune up $350
Lower ball joints $150
Outer Tierod Ends $150
Inner Tierod Ends $120
Front Heater Core $80
Rear Heater Core $50
On going coolant flush from previous owner using stop leak $45 and counting
Wheel Spacers $200
Panhard Drop $50

@#$@ I hope my wife doesn't see this HAHAHA
 
(all prices in CAD)

Truck + taxes, ownership transfer & plates: $ 5,000
Trans Cooler: $ 110
Trans Temp Gauge & 2 Sensors: $ 100
Trans Cooler Install Hardware (fittings/hoses/qt of fluid): $ 50
4 Tire Re-Mounting: $ 80
Dash mounted Voltmeter: $ 10
Single Din Stereo Dash Kit and Harness: $ 40
Used Stereo and 4-Channel Amp: $ 50
Cleaning Products: $ 50

Minus the $ 800 I got from selling my old car to get this Rig, that brinsg teh total to around $ 4,700 for exactly as she sits today.

I only bought it in January 2015 though.

If you take into account our current exchange rate and rounding up a little, my current tally sits at around the $ 4,000 USD mark for this.
