If you really want a fancy pickup just go buy a new one! Pickups used to be for work, used by people like me, to make a living out of. Now they are driven by every idiot that thinks a truck is cool. So now when a guy like me needs a work truck I pretty much have to get power everything, leather, and every geegaw known to man to get the few options I really need. That means they are $30K+ What a joke. Can ya tell I've been truck shopping? Actually with a diamond plate bed that MB conversion would likely hold up better than the 1/2ton luxo crap trucks they are selling these days. RT
