I can TOTALLY relate to that! I am on my phone and between fat fingers and the auto spell corection I have to edit everything 3 or 4 times.

A truck that is much rarer, but not desirable, is a 98 extra cab. For a while you could get a regular cab, extra cab, or a quad cab in 98. Nobody wanted the extra cab if you could get a quad so by the 1999 model year the extra cab was dropped. I have seen one myself.

Club cabs were still available in early 1999 - not sure if the whole year. My '99 has a build date of 8-98 and is a club cab.

Yes, as I recall, you could order either a club cab (like our 1996) or a quad cab (like our 2002) for a period of time. Production dates of the two cab styles overlapped.

I wasn't sure on the 98 or 99, thanks for the clarification.

 

[DVolk]

I never seen a 98 extra cab

Wow! Now that is an interesting bit of info I'd never heard! Strictly based on side mirrors, my truck looks like a 98+ club cab, but it's just a 96 with 98 mirrors... I haven't noticed anyone else looking like mine, but I'll be watching!

 

[DVolk]

I think the mirrors will fit to the body change

I might have used the wrong terms for the extra cab, maybe I should have said club cab? Hard to keep stright what the different manufacturers call the extre cab. I think most of you understood what I ment.
