Just make the hauler look timeless. No Gimmicks, No Crap that looks dated in 10 years. Kind of like blue jeans and a T-shirt or a tuxedo. They never go out of style.

Don't make you truck look like a really nice set of Big Block Chevy Valve Covers that everybody had on their hot rod rod 20 years ago and now look like they are 20 years one when they are brand new
I agree.

You really think I'm going to still have this same rig 10 years from now? You've got to be joking...


The Sunbrella fabric won't last 10 years... and if it did last that long - it'd be filthy and would have been replaced long before. But I also get what you're saying.... which is EXACTLY why I don't want the whoopteedo paint jobs they put on these things. I can't even imagine what we'll all think of those 10 years from now!

You're right -- someone ELSE will be washing it!

Might be true for most people. But as you are certainly aware... this is GW. He can and will afford to change it every 3-5 years I'd venture to guess.

I like the yellow awning idea off the gray. Go for it. And change it when you change cars. Or taste. Or whatever.
