Hi I am a new member

I am a one time owner of a 97 dodge ram pick up with 2200000k all over Ontario, down to Florida a couple of times & out to East just once, camping & fishing with no break downs. IT'S A VERY DEPENDABLE TRUCK. But time has done a number to the old girl. Her paint has started to peel & the interior cloth ceiling is starting to come down. Has anyone else dealt with these problems? Thanks

with that many miles, of course she going to start showing her age. my neighbor had a 87 ram that he waxed every weekend. and i do mean EVERY weekend. his paint did real well over the years but dont know too many people that would take it to the extreme like he did. as for the headliner, i believe 9 years are a little soon but they have good cheap kits and some will get a upholstry guy to put one back up that has been custom tailored. that is fairly reasonably priced and gives your truck that extra little personality that everyone wants.
