A coworker of mine has a 92 xcab. He called and I think he said it was in the $400 dollar range. Dunno if that is Canadian or US $$$ though.

I emailed the above link. They said it would be 549.00 Canadian. I found a currency calculator and it looks like 548.56 US

Bump for a good question.
Has anyone been able to put a child seat in a extended cab?
This may mean the difference to converting my wife...
