Was going to trade the MM in and get another car. Dealership offered me 8,200 for my MM but I enjoy the no car note too much so I backed out the deal.
Anyway. I have some money to spend and wondering where should it go. I'm currently at 152 on the clock. Has typical "engine noise" but Runs like a champ. I want more power but definitely unsure because of the miles. I've read some have taken the heads off and tightened up bolts and the sound is gone. Should I be looking to pull the motor apart and go through it to make sure it's all good or don't mess with it?
Gears have been done so that's off the mod list.
If there is nothing i should do then I'm interested in a 3500 stall, headers, N02, non IC S/C (add as I can)
If there are any suggestions please chime in
You will notice a big gain with headers! :up:

I stopped at that. No don't do it.
Then, I read the rest of your post.
The 3500 stall is the most fun.

I think you've made a good choice in keeping her.
As far as mods, I would work on the things you don't have to do twice as you go forward.

At those miles just drive and enjoy. Save your $ for a vehicle upgrade. There's one here with low miles and an Eaton for just over 10k.

I've been doing those through the year

I thought about that too and just swap when I'm done building

I want that car just a tad but out of reach, if sell mine to get it but market is LOW I've had mine for sale and the low ball offers are ridiculous

Tell the dealer to give you more for the trade in. Be firm at 10k and then settle at 9,500 . I think I'm trading mine in when warranty expires at 102k ...currently at 98k

that would be one bada$$ truck.
I have a new rule NOOO payments.
Back on point. You could just drive as is. Or sell yours to the dealer and grab the s/c'd one. Wait did they offer you that in cash? Probably not... Even if you take a little less and by the other you come out ahead. Just my 2 cents. You already know you'll never get a return on money put into yours. Who does, but you'll be less negative :)

I know and they are so nice. But payments are not sounding attractive right now

I don't have much in mine, I will ask and see if they would offer a cash amount though I honestly didn't think of that. They offered me trade in value.

To outright buy, don't expect much more than auction price.

99% of the car buying public doesn't know what a Marauder is, and doesn't care.
Just keep that in mind when you evaluate any deal.
