    Oh I'm the same way. It has carpet throughout. I just want the carpet out of the main living level and hardwood put in. I plan to do the hardwood myself. The carpet upstairs doesn't even really need replaced but I'm sure I will at some point.

    Is it pretty easy. I actually enjoy installing snap lock.

    Depending on what you're looking for, I may be able to get you a really good deal.

    ill shoot you a text and explore some options. there is a floating hardwood floor in the entire house now. i want carpet in the bedroom. There is already tile in the bathroom. So probably one room that is probably 320 sqft that includes the bedroom and closet leading into the bathroom. And then a 150-200 sqft room that is our spare bedroom.

    Oh yes, full retard! I hope to put the kINGs on it as soon as I get my current truck sold. Then onto amour. The difference in the price is very minimal and I just can't stand chrome at all.

    We usually measure carpet in square yards vs hardwood that is measured in square footage.

    As for measuring a room for carpet, you want to measure from baseboard to baseboard, unless there is a doorway. If there is a doorway then you would measure from baseboard to the outside of the doorway then add 3 inches. Each area like bedroom, vanity, and closer should be measured separately depending on the layout.

    Carpet usually runs 12 feet wide by whatever the length needed. If your rooms are under 12 feet in either direction, your carpet length will be the length of the room, opposite the under 12 measurement.

    I'll just stop by sometime and measure it out for you so we know what you need.

    financially speaking that makes zero sense to spend a penny more if you plan on removing them anyway. But it is not my money sir

    It will be several months before I get a rear bumper, maybe even over a year.

    The heated seats and color keyed rear bumper are the only options I want from the package...

    How hard was it to find a quicksand off-road? Dealer yesterday said I would probably have to get on a waiting list for the exact truck I want.

    i would get to shopping at other dealerships dude. Never take one persons answer confirm it over several people. I understand about how it may take some time to get the bumpers done. Just my $0.02 is all

    I have been to a couple, I am taking my time. I just bought a house so I am still a couple months from the actual purchase. Guy at the first place got mad at me when I didn't drive one off the lot that day.

    I'll be full retard one day, but it has taken me 6 years to get there so far. Last thing is a rear bumper.

    I figured the rear bumper will be close to last as well. Might as well have a nice quicksand one rather than a bright chrome one. I mean if the difference becomes thousand or more than I will live with the chrome lol
