It's kind of hard to judge when you've modified it so much from stock. When you start to get the big bucks into one of these trucks, it really can't be done with an eye towards resale value because you wind up putting way more into it than you could possibly get out of it (unless you just happen to come across the right person who wants it so badly that he's willing to pay those big bucks!) And don't forget, your location has a lot to do with valuation. In certain parts of the country you could get a lot more for it than in others.

I presume you have no intention of actually selling but are merely wondering what it might be worth?

Looks great, BTW...

Yeah I really wouldn't intend on selling it but I mean if someone came and offered me a great deal, I'd really think about it. But yes I know what you mean, you can usually never get as much out of it as what you put in it, thats just what we all have to live with haha. But I was just seeing what kind of opinions I would get on it. On the truck we have so far put in around $11,000 but I assume I'll never get that back so that means I'll probably never sell it, it'll just always look good at my place. And thanks!
