Or is it simply the aura of the 88-99 is finally starting to feel as the 73-87 once did on me. But I feel as if lots of other people are now out for the old squares. Yes I'm saying the 88-99 is starting to be ugly for me. I know I'm not the only one having this love affair change. I'll definitely take a interior from a 87 over a 88 any day of the week with everything that breaks on the interior of the 88.
at least the GM trucks have alway's look'd decent at the very least thru out the year's, I feel bad for the guy's that have alway's been into Dodge truck's, the early version's were ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
