My IHC 1850 Truck had Mexican parts way back in the 70`s, so I guess it`s nothing new. It wasn`t that great a truck though it did the job.

I finally saw one of those limited Resistol versions of the Dodge mega cab short box dually. it was that dark stone with the sandstone on the bottom and around the fenders. I like the way those rear wheel flares look on those trucks!!! A friend of mine has a cousin who has had lots of Dodge's with the Cummins. He told me his cousin bought one of these but I had never seen one until yesterday. I think the interior is hot looking --- kind of the same way that the Lincoln trucks and the Yukon Denalis are done up. Some variety from the same old same old same old grey vinyl with a few pieces of very very thin leather on the seats that doesnt wear well (all brands guilty of that!!).

Resistol makes cowboy hats - the seats were a light tan leather with an embroidered cowboy hat image in the seat back. Its similar market placement as a King Ranch. I think Kent told me it was actually a Bighorn or something like that but I didnt see that nomenclature on the truck - it just said Resistol.

you can if you get the right jobs... a nice wide open area and 3-1/2 inch planks is really good for it

Man i should look into that!

I used to lay flooring for awhile while i was going to school in 2000ish, got pretty good at it too. Ceramic, carpet, hardwood, and my least favorite, linolium.

i do hardwood, ceramic(very little), and laminate if its a good quality product. the cheap laminates aren't worth the headache of putting them in. i love hardwood though!! being as i'm a sawdust freak...

Ive actually put in quite abit of the cheaper 1.00ish a square foot laminate, and ill tell ya, its usually a world better then what was there haha.

Hardwood is the best, thats what my new house is (hopefully) gonna get.

I always thought that non cheap flooring really shows a room off.
