    :biggrin_25514:glad you are satisfied. Oh yeah alot changes as soon as the money starts coming out of your pocket for sure.

    The truck we just picked up will do 101 and it will very seldom see over 70 or 72. But we got a detroit so that will help us over that kitty kat yall got.
    Cant wait for pics:yes2557:

    These are the T200's they have. The salesman even said they are really trashed. He said they were really misled on them and would never buy from that company again. They can't get rid of these last two. Also a pic of the mismatch hood on one of the white Volvo's.


    Thanks for the photo shrinking advice, I think this will work.

    Ok here it is. It's kinda dirty, we hit rain and bugs on the way home. We're gonna do our lettering/numbering in sliver.

    Speaking of dirty..... I understand that if you smoke in your bed at home you will more than likely smoke in the bunk of your truck. But my gawd..... everyone should be wiping and cleaning the walls, ceiling and interior of our trucks on a semi regular basis. Yucky stuff can make you sick and keep you sick. :biggrin_2552:
    Not to mention it just looks gross.

    Silver or CHROME...LOL That color is very close to the same as mine and I did my lettering in chrome with a black outline. Looks awesome I think. Congrats!

    Tell me about it. All 3 of my trucks were like that and I think I went through a couple bottles of 409 each to get all the sticky tar off them. If you have carpet, go rent a good upholstery cleaner or I bought a Blissell Little Green Pro Heat at Wal-mart just for cleaning the carpet in the trucks. It is meant for spot cleaning or upholstery and the little powered brush works well. I spent several hours cleaning the carpet and the water was yellow from the tar and of coarse you could find every spot that a previous driver spilled a soda or coffee... just kept going over it all tile the wateer was coming up mostly clear. Only downfall is it takes a couple days to get it dry afterwards.....

    I cant really tell the hood on that volvo from that picture,but the pic makes the T2000 look like it has a REALLY mismatched hood.
