What would you do with $1000?

[S p a r k y]

I am about to run into some bonus money for meeting certain benchmarks at work. So I am debating on what to do with it. Just wanted to see what others thought.

These are in no particular order.

Addicted offroad bumper
upper for my AR and some ammo and mags
AK and ammo and mags
new double din in the 4runner
thought about wheels, but I am happy with stockers still at this point
Retrofit, I know [MENTION=63543]CrimsonCountry[/MENTION] has some housings for sale
LED light bar
There are a few ideas.

Smartest thing would be to pay off the hospital bills for the 8 month old, but the wife tells me to use that money for myself. So i said OK!

I'd buy an LED light bar and some Taillights from a certain someone

and spend the remaining on a retrofit and or double din headunit, but I'm all about the creature comforts. I really like the projector housings and I drive at night a lot, HIDs are just great to look at. I'm getting a double din head unit too soon. Backup cam will be really nice, improved sound quality etc. and just a better overall interface with the truck.

Funny! Before I even opened the thread, thought to myself "pay medical bills!"
Glad I'm not the only one in this boat.
So since we have it pick from the list, I say wheels You'll love the look of something other than stock.

Ah crap!!, sorry man forgot to respond to your e-mail! I will do that now lol. I knew you would say that about the lights and light. And that is on the list! I agree on headlights and head unit. I am kinda set on either an AR upper or AK, since I currently don't have a long gun. But radio, lights could be the other half of that money as well.

Me personally, pay for college expenses. You, I say bumper. I want a bumper so bad I can't see straight.

Oh i know, I have looked and looked at wheels, the good thing would be that I can sale the stockers and the all pro wheel adapters and get some money towards wheels. But now i like the new color I plasti dip painted them. Ayy decisions decisions.

Make my ABS brakes happy, tires, shocks and struts in that order.....

Can wheels and a bumper protect your freedom? Haha
I, too, am in the same boat with my imaginary 1k... I have a spare chrome bolt carrier group if you're interested

 

[cacarbuff]

I'm voting for the Addicted Bumper! I actually came into this thread with that in mind and then saw it on your list!

 

[piccrazy30]

I vote for the head unit, its such a huge improvement in quality from the stock HU.

 

[Jwm6]

Rifle, ammo, mags, I would go with the AR. Best investment of the money.

 

[Code2]

put it in the bank with the rest of the money to collect interest then go shopping when it doubles

 

[Troymclure]

You could do a lot of those things with $1000, like LED lightbar, retrofit, Double din and some left over for ammo if you're careful.

 

[Gdmeadors]

Like a few others have mentioned, put at least part of it in a college fund if you don't already have one. You will be surprised at how quickly your children grow up! I know I was.

 

[Velonici]

Half into savings or into the medical bills. Other half to a really nice out for you and what sounds like a really awesome wife.

Bumper

A new DD head unit shouldnt cost much, so you could have some leftover. I got a Pioneer back in November for about $200 and it is a vast improvement over stock. Bumper would be nice too.

Since I already have 3 AR's, I'd have to say...

"Well, you don't need a million dollars to do nothing, man. Take a look at my cousin. He's broke....don't do SHIT!"

Already checked that one off the list without the $ :cheers:
