My defination of my daily driver is something that I drive very often rain or shine. Now that my wife's daily car died, she is using my daily Jimmy and I get to drive my truck every freaking day - yeah baby yeah.
My wife wants me to paint the truck and I don't, for if I do, like some of you, I will not use it as a truck. Maybe we can meet halfway by me doing something to the bed so I can haul stuff and not worry about scratching it.

That's a fine looking truck. New paint won't make it do what it does any better, and paint costs like stink!
Best wishes,

I now would never put anything in my oak bed now so use as a truck is not possible. I do enjoy having it look so good now. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 38 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 38 | Very nice. Don't paint it. | | |
