i just like the idea of having a 3rd gen. pickup body style with a removable hard top. that would be pretty sweet, mostly in the summers. its like having a jeep but its not a pile of crap.lol the trekker would be awesome too.

Yeah I thought about that with my first gen especially after I picked up a camper shell for it. I have got to bob the bed to fit the shell so why not go ahead and conect the bed and cab cut the floor out and add a jeep rear bench? I like that Idea!
