Man I couldn't agree with you more. I wish I could buy a brand new old truck. Metal dash,rubber floor mat,crankup windows the way real trucks used to be. But that will never happen again unfortunately.

You can still order a new truck with rubber floormats, and crankup windows. If you get the vinal floor mats they take $30 off the base price.

Yeah I was going to mention that... I think you can get rubber floors in any model even the Laramie.

One of the neater trucks I've seen was a chevy LT that looked like a stripped down one from the outside ie no body moulding, black fender flares, and grey steel wheels. Open the door and it's all lux minus carpet subsituted for rubber mats.

That's why I have crank windows and a stick. If I want all the fancy stuff, I take my car with the Hud display and junk.
