I don't see why people get mad/upset or whatever when people ask how much a jeep cost or a jeep build cost. .......But a jeep or a jeep build? I get asked often about mine and mine isn't really anything built up yet. But usually people are interested in it cause they have a jeep or thinking about getting one and are interested in something about mine. Sometimes you do get the douche bags that are just being douche bags, usually I just throw out a figure I know that's probably a little high and see where it goes.

I can understand boobs cause let's face it, you don't really know for sure that they were bought. Lol. But a jeep or a jeep build?

Maybe I'm just missing something. And maybe they could've done some research into parts alone before just asking. I'll agree with that. In today's society it seems like people want everybody to do the leg work for them. You can see it everyday on for sale sights, even on craigslist.
It doesn't bother me in the least...people ask me all the time about what I paid for many things...not just jeeps. But I just never reply to the inquiries...I just don't discuss my personal finances with anyone except my wife, cpa and financial planner...
I don't see it being an issue in the ways that you just brought up, I had a neighbor just the other day ask how much my ARB compressor was, etc. But Brute's build is a very top-notch build and I for one feel it is rude to ask in that context. Just like if you were to see someone with a high-end sports car, you just don't ask. You can speculate that it wasn't cheap and leave it at that. That's my :twocents:

Which I do kind of know since I made a spread sheet once and then I was depressed :thumb:
The post got moved here, because it was cluttering Brute's build thread, not so much because of the question. As to everyone's responses, mostly it looks to me like a little good natured banter.

It doesn't matter as long as they don't ask how much in front of the wife [emoji12], she should never know how much the build cost [emoji15].
