Oscar is awesome! =)Ok, looks like you have exactly what I need. First of all, I love Cheech. We have a Doodle named Oscar, who is a bit bigger at 96 lbs. Can you please tell me where you got the palatial bed for Cheech? I'm sure Oscar would feel equally royal if he had a setup like that in back. Because of his size, it's sometimes troublesome for him back there as we also have a supercab.
I'm guessing those Okole covers fit very well but did you have any problems with them?
They look great, have the colors I need and the custom emblems I want.
And lastly, I'm no stranger to neoprene as I am a very seasoned scuba diver, so I gotta ask, do you have any odor problems with these covers? I'll probably add the care kit they offer for another $33.00
Any advice is appreciated.
Looks like I'm dropping more dough on Blue Dream...that's what I get for getting on this forum, lol.
Thanks in advance!
And here's a pic of Oscar, just for fun. He LOVES riding in the Dream but needs to be more comfortable. Oh what we do for our furry family members.
I did have a bit of a rough time getting the bottoms on, I was never able to figure out how to unclip the airbag connector. It's a tight fit but that keeps it looking crisp. The back is tight too but patience will also conquer it. =)
If you're more patient than I am, it'll be much better for you. I was having a bit of a coniption fit. But I'm also a spaz (as will be evidenced by the need of an ice pack for the goose egg on top of my head from today's dash am install). =p
I also got the care kit and have used the shampoo to get take out food grease off the passenger side (the one friggin' time that I didn't put it on the floor mat!). =(
I'm a NAUI divemaster and when I got the covers, a month before I actually got the Ranger, I spread them out and let them air out for about a week. They weren't too bad.
Now Cheech's bed ... that was also over $400 but it's custom to exactly fit over the supercab rear seats and be level with the center console (Wet Okole includes a center console cover and I think most brands do). Cheech tore both his CCLs and one had to be surgically fixed (they put monofilament to act as a ligament and he has no issues) so we're careful about him not getting his legs caught anywhere.
The foam place:

We got their top of the line foam in the second from the stiffest level, backed all sides with dacron, did Sunbrella fabric, and a zipper that extends a bit to each side. Could have done without the dacron I think, it helps keep the cover tight and make it easier to remove but i havent taken it off, the Sunbrella fabric is easy to clean, even to vacuum off the Cheech hair.

Here's how the mattress came:

Good luck and if I missed anything, just ask.
