Red face I don't know if I wanna jump for joy or barf...

Just got back from my local offroad store. I ordered a 3.5 lift kit, spacers, and 5-35" Mickey Thompsons. (and a Trektop NX) Install should be next week. I am so freakin excited I can't stand it!!!!! But I think I might barf too. Whenever I spend big bucks on something "frivolous" I always feel anxious. I mean, the vehicle gets me back and forth to work just fine without all that stuff.... but it's gonna be sooo much more fun with it!!!! I think my guilt will subside once it's all installed and I am behind the wheel and off the beaten path. But until then.... I'm still kinda queezy...

You will definately feel better when you're drive'n with the windows zipped out, and all the new stuff on the Jeep. That's why we all do this !

Buyers remorse sucks.....

I can relate to that feeling. I felt the same way when I traded a good pick-up that was paid off for the new Jeep. The truck was perfect, no problems what-so-ever and here I was jumping into a new vehicle payment during the worst economical times of my life. What was I thinking!!! Oh well a year later I am happy and ready to spend more on mods than is'nt necessary like everyone else with this mod fever we get with Jeep ownership. You will get over that nervous feeling once the parts are installed and you are having fun in that awsome Jeep. Good luck and have fun with the Jeep.

It's a Jeep thing. The remorse gets less and less with each mod! Proudly post up pics when the lift/tires are on!
