Don't smoke...they were there when I bought the truck years ago. Always been going to get new upholstery, but you know how it is......when you are busy you just never get around to things that require much effort.......and going into the city and spending all day requires effort.
He was able to match the fabric because he had what was most likely the only roll of original fabric in the State. It saved me a lot of cash since the seat backs were still perfect, as was the center console.
The truck looks great now and so I won't be shopping for a new truck......leaves a lot of cash available for new lenses or whatever other gear I may want.
I have always been a Ford truck guy, but this little Ram has changed that. It has been a wonderful and trouble free truck. Just plain and simple, but it gets the job done for my needs, which are mostly just hauling animal feed nowadays.
A good radio, icy cold air, heat to cook a pizza on the dash and good gas mileage. Plus.....since it hauls all that squirrel feed, squirrels never even consider chewing up the wiring.
