awesome, thanks man, I was going to go to MAACO, they're closer to my house, but when I called each place to find out their baselines the guy was a lot nicer at the other place. one of my coworkers handles the fleet vehicles and he had one painted there and was happy with it.

yeah, 30 dollar charge to upgrade to the metallic. I'll go around the truck with him then. the body is in really good shape, one ding in the rear just above the taillight, I am gonna take care of that myself. plus taking off bumpers and trim, I figure rather than having them just tape it I'll get better results if I strip a bunch of it first. I have a D8 so could do some work myself, but don't know how so figure the 80 bucks or whatever he's charging me for that is worth it.

now I just need to wait till my friend gets his tractor back so we can use the bucket to pull the toolbox out, I hate the thought of emptying it first and trying to get everything back in there.
