completely reworked. Rolled and pleated red and black leather seats, red carpeting,new black paint with red accents, lots of engine work done. Cost him $12000. Then about a month after he got it back he died. His son got the truck and ran an ad in the auto trader. I called him about it. He said the homeowners association was going to fine him several hundred dollars a day if he didn't get "that truck" out of his driveway. They didn't allow "those kind of vehicles" in their little gated community. So I got it at a steal.

I have since had it re-painted as there were some flaking of the paint on the hood.

But the gist of this spiel is that unfortunately there are organizations that have to rule over people they consider beneath them. I couldn't live like that. And like the homeowners associations, most forums tend to be like that.
