got a tonneau cover off of my buddy for time being. it is made for a chevy so it has a gap that i am going to fill most likely with diamond plate or something of the sort.

Well being as today is my birthday, i figured i might as well buy myself something. Yesterday i went to best buy and picked this up, It's not the best unit in the world, but it does what i want it to and replaces my old stock head unit

I still have to trim the plastic piece that goes around the head unit

So i think the truck just might get a green/gray cabelas style two tone...:evil

Second choice to that is platinum edition.

Don't do the cabelas two tone, it looks horrible, doesn't flow with body lines, and reminds me of ricer trash.

The platinum is still very close to the top for me. Far above the cabelas. I really like the green on my
bed now.

Next year. Getting my obs on the road then parking this thing to go over it right. Paint, rebuild front end, paint frame, new carpet on interior most likely, pull the engine and put a new oil pan on it and paint it at the same time. I want to go all out even though my intentions of keeping it after next winter are slim to none, i want some leverage in the trading game.

As of now, within the next 2 months hopefully the truck will be getting painted. I am keeping the gray and paint matching everything besides the chrome in the grill. I think it will look good with the polished wheels.

So would you guys classify this as excessive? I would. It fails #7 contribution test on a scanner and has a little bit of a miss to it at times.
