Trucky I reccommend you put that bonus toward an IRA, much better spent than a stupid supercharger. I always sat my troops down to ask them to be wise with those bonuses after I re-enlisted them. With 40K troops the AF getting ready to cut you will see bonuses droping as well. BE SMART!!!!!

However I was looking at the supercharger route but relize my dak will always just be a beater vehicle. I stopped by the dealer and asked about the 6.1 srt-8 challenger and if there will be a waiting list for one. They took my number I told them I want the first one in Austin TX. Think putting 5K toward that will be money better spent.

Good news! I've seen all these young guys run out buy the first Navigator/BMW/Benz and watch them fall apart in the dorms and get ruined and have nothing to shoe for their money. Sorry for putting my opinion in just watched it happed over and over.

The Challenger SRT8 would be a worthy goal and possible investment.You see what Hemi Cudas go for these days.

QCDAK i wasnt contradicting i agree with you dont worry. even my recruiter said guy go and put 64 month payments on cars and all they do is make payments on things for the rest of their life cuz they didnt invest and all that.
and also i am looking at the charger srt-8, it's my dream car...4 doors and roomy with a sunroof...plus aalllll that power. i might trade my truck in but im not sure, it's so pretty and worthy of improvement
