    As much as I like my '97 Limited, I do have two small beefs...Not a big fan of leather seats, and I don't like the color of my ride...sorta wish it was another color...like that Toyota green, or red.....but it's moot point.....I think the engineers dropped the ball...in regards to the interior. First of all, I would have preferred the EM Brake, to have been moved to under the dash..instead of in the area between front buckets....and the seats themselves, are really sandwiched too tightly in the front area...heaven forbid you drop anything important between the seats..a real pain in the arse, to fish it out.....but hey, if that's the worst of my beefs, I can live with 'em...you know ?

    Welcome, looks good to me also, do you have the back loaded, or is that just a little sag?

    Looks good.

    Don't like it? Just buy one in a different color :notsure:

    These trucks are stupidly cheap.

    Seat gap fillers?

    Find a good painter, preferably one that does it cheap out of the garage....,, but check his previous work first...

    I would do a big stripe down the side. Ford still does stripes, but they won’t show you that one it’s 100+K...
