They must be pretty minor flaws, it's sweet!
Is your bed wood or steel? or is that the flaw??? hidden under the bed cover? If its a wooden bed I would love see a picture. I'm leaning towards your hugger orange when I have my truck painted and I have a wooden bed that I need to refinish first.

It's a steel floor.
I'd love to take the tonneau cover off, but I'd have to repaint the top of the bedcaps and tailgate where the paint's worn off. And I'd have to do something about this spray on bedliner. It's nice but it doesn't look right with the rest of the truck.

Re: undecided truck color

Thanks for posting the picture!
I see what you mean about not matching the rest of the truck.

That is a beautiful truck! That thing looks super clean and in very good shape. Seeing your truck makes me glad I chose Hugger Orange!

Not sure if you're asking me or aggiguy, but the blue on mine is not. It's from the 04-08 Dodge Rams.
