Yeah, I dont plan on being a brat about it. I know my place and will be respecful about it. But its also irritating... When my brother wanted a 4x4 Hemi, he was given the chance to get one (despite that being strictly off limits for me). And then traded for a Jeep despite my parents not wanting him to, but they still signed it over.

Yeah, a really good rebuild with billet components can exceed $2000 without much trouble. My buddy Bradley has a 2006 ram 2500 w/ the 5.9L HO and LOTS of goodies added on and is currently on his 5th tranny (4th replacement) and finally decided it was worth going with a bullydog 1000hp tranny w/ a two step. Very pricey but virtually indestructible

Well.... Making that list completely blew up in my face and only made matters worse.

My parents saw the spreadsheet as a way of trying to prove them wrong.
