Tax Return plans?

Anyone have any mods planned "IF" you are getting a tax return??? I dont have any mods planned for mine. Quite happy with mine for the time being.

My tax return is getting me a new toy to pull behind my truck tho. 1986 Ford Ranger with a 347 Stroker in it. (New drag racing truck), paying off credit cards, getting my wife a new gun, and remodeling the master bathroom!

I am thinking about getting a couple more gauges for my truck to go over the rearview mirror. I am thinking about getting oil pressure, water temp/oil temp, fuel pressure and air pressure for my recently mounted train air horns

Should have cost half that unless you're into synthetic lubricants.

Well the wife won't let me touch the tax return, but seeing as how every month out here in Iraq with immenent danger pay, separations allowance, hardship allowance, not state or fed tax, I make an extra $940 a month, time 7 months.... I HOPE to get a 38r, bigger sticks, and stacks. Maybe also some more epoxy, fiberglass, and paint for my 25' Luhrs I'm rebuilding. But in reality the wife will probably tell me to stop smoking crack....

That IS good pay. My last deployment I reenlisted and got 48,000 TAX FREE. That was sweet. It's all gone now. Had to buy the wife a new child friendly car and put a down payment on the house. It goes quick.

I have gauges on my tax return list.

Holy crap another Brendan!!! I'm guessing you also meant 227,000 miles, yes? Now THAT'S what I'd call a stimulus package!!!
