Will be a daily driver. Will put the carpet back in. But I am debating putting vinyl in the front. Any websites I can get it from cheap?

X10.....you typed it before I could. The floor pan gets super hot, its like standing too close to a camp fire, but theres no place to go!!!

The bed liner is still a good idea, the floor pans on these seem to rust from the inside out.

Living in Wisconsin (and the winters here), I get a new battery every 4-5 years. Nothing worse than having to deal it in the cold. X2 on the bed liner before the new carpet. (spray cans)
