And they are changing that -panther- name, right ?? And a totally new logo ?? Not to mention all that nonsense on the back doors. Deffinatly not what one would consider a good corporate image. May seem trivial, but i was so turned off by the trucks logo and name that I didn't even contact...

I just had new seats installed 2 weeks ago while running up 95. Picked them up at Suburban Auto Seat in Lodi,N.J. The salesman gave us directions to an installer directly down the street from the store and we were back on the road within 45 mins. Our biggest debate was /leather -vs- cloth...
