Now I'm wishing I had done it sooner. Not sure if the wife likes them yet. She thinks they may be too big and will block the rear view mirror. Guess I'll have to wait till she drives it next.

Funny part is I find myself reading the sticker in the mirror when I'm driving, but all I can see is part of it if I really look.

Good afternoon guys.
Greg the truck looks GREAT.
If she does not like it just tell her not to drive it.
I can't remember the last time the wife drove mine.

Aaron I love my 6.0, yes they do have a couple of week spots but they can easily be addressed as we talked.

My wife doesn't have a vehicle of her own anymore. Toyota asked for it back when the lease was up in July

She doesn't get another one of her "own" until she decides to go back to work

Those stickers look great Greg! Gives me some motivation to get workin on mine. Since the cats were stolen on our vans, I have been driving one to and from home now, so the truck isn't getting much road time. It's a pretty cool feeling to get in and the gas gauge still reads full! May be a good time to pull the carb and start rebuilding it before the owner decides that the gas bill is too high to keep taking the vans home every night.
