I do not buy modded cars and trucks. If I see one bit of tinkering I walk away as too many people do not know what they're doing.

Our youngest sold Subaru's for awhile after he got out of college. Modded trade ins = less money. When they did take one it usually went straight to auction. The dealership did not want the liablity risk for potentially unsafe brake and suspension work.
