What manuals are available and from who? I've seen a lot of 1/2 ton manuals but are big truck manuals available? I'd also like to find some paint chips for the right colors. That brings up another question. On Spot the truck is green but the inside was repaintd badly with gray paint. Was the inside cab gray or the truck color?
Thank you,
