I thought you had the recession hit a little close to home, not close enough I see, LOL. That is a good looking truck and should be able to haul around whatever toys you need a bit easier.

Sweet truck!

If it were mine I would pull the bug guard off, lose the pinstripe and door molding, take off the steps, add a set of the larger towing mirrors in place of the little ones, put some clear corners on it, and drive it till it dies! But that's just me.

It is nice having something comfy and reliable for everyday driving. Of course a 4" lift and some 35s would make it even better for the weekends.

Oh yea, that would be sweet... You can add that to the list too, some nice 4" lift Deavers for the front and whatever for the rear (don't want the deavers to kill your carrying capacity) and some Bilstein shocks!

well the pinstripes are hand painted, i don't really see the bug guard when i drive so i guess it doesn't bother me and i need the running boards since i have a petite wife who needs the assistance geeting in and out. but ya about lift and tires i actually decided on the stock truck for driveability and cost of ownership and plus i already have the scout and really don't want another project anyways. i totally want the bigger mirrors and sooner or later the tranny cooler out of the 6.0 but outside of that i think i will leave this one alone. every car i have ever owned has been modified to some degree except my wifes cavalier and i kind of like that ease of ownership and low maintanence.
