    Well seeing as he posted right after I posted the pics of my new decals..and the history they have..I would say he talking about SteelCityAirman7. .which has done all my work since somebody got Shitty with me for using someone else to make decals for me and not him, he does great work (they both do) and ive had no problems...

    I see. I thought there was another vinyl guy someone posted that was doing the camp work.

    I've used both RuggedT and Steel... as you said, both do great work!
    Sorry Stan, not trying to stir the pot just being nosey on who it was... :D

    Need to be able to open up my fridge and toolbox and get kayaks, surfboards, and other junk in the truck. Needs to go under the bed.

    It'll fit with some cutting.

    I can't solder to save my life, and need to get the wires made up so I can start working on the electrical system next weekend.

    Plan for this weekend is to get Groundpounder to fab up the awning hoops, and then bedline those and put a 2nd coat on the entire rack. Then Get the RTT mounted on Sunday and start working on the wiring next week after my battery box gets here.

    I have a feeling that I'm going to need an RTT trailer before long.

    Next winter's project... we can build two of them, I want one too.

    Maybe you should have made an Expo vehicle out of an old Uhaul Truck, with all the stuff you're wanting to bring.

    Took a few hours off this afternoon to mess with stuff and get an idea of what I have left to get.

    Rack over bed idea is a bust, no way it will work. So I've got a set of INNO Bed bar mounts with bars for sale.

    Also am going to sell some other odds and ends to hopefully get enough cash together to buy a Yakima roof rack. No way to get Yaks or Surfboards down to OBX in the bed now.

    Strap your board/kyaks on top of the RTT. Should hole well enough.

    It is overly big. The 50Qt ARB was really the perfect size for me, and the 63 was good, but I wasn't in love with the dimensions.

    This thing is huge, but when you figure in food, beer, water, and breakfast stuff for 3 days, it really isn't all that big.

    Hey guys, what dealers do you guys take your trucks to for warranty work? Do any in our area offer loaner vehicles while your truck is being repaired? Last night my truck threw a p2443 2nd bank air pump so I called my selling dealer checkered flag to schedule an appt. They schedule it and i re arrange my work schedule to comply with it only to get a call today that they are unable to do that appt. as i will have to drop my truck off for warranty work and cannot wait on it. So i ask about a loaner vehicle then and they tell me they don't do that but we rent customers corolla's and Camry's. This doesnt seem right to me that I should be inconvenienced for Toyota's faulty part on my truck. I'm thinking about trying Charles barker Toyota, who do you guys recommend or have dealt with?
