ok, maybe not 2k but 3k. like someone said...if you can buy a decent cab for 500 and put a new floor in for 800, then why would a company make and sell them for more than 2 or 3k. for the 3k the company could actually move some cabs and the customer could start with a edp'd cab and only have to worry about fittment issues and not a ton of labor. in a perfect world, that is

that's the issue though....a 500 cab likely will need more than just the 800 floor and how much time/money to put it in? Not many are qualified/want to do that type of repair.
And the $500 cali/az cabs generally cost 600-1000 to get to where people need them (in shipping)
Plus, a "used" cab needs to be blasted and primered to be compared to an EDP'd cab. At that point, you're easily talking about having 3-4K into the cab starting with a decent used cab (unless doing all the work yourself-and if you do all the work yourself.....you'd never buy a new cab
)
I hope they do make them and they are in the 2-3K range. I just seriously doubt it'll happen soon...and doubt even more they'd be less than 5K....
