I'm totally on board with that Higgi. For work, I generally found myself towing a dual axle trailer, and not using the bed. For fun, I'd prefer the organization and convenience of an Aussie-type tray/canopy. Not sure how popular that would be here though.

The standard truck bed really isn't the most efficient use of space for my needs. Unless hauling chicken manure, lumber, or misc. other crap on the weekend. Especially stuff that is easily unloaded from the rear of the truck. When it comes to hauling gear, then it makes a lot of sense to access it from the the sides as needed.

Aussie trays, service bodies, and stake bodies seem to make more sense if they meet the user's needs.




Truck beds are rather awkward to build a skid for that's for certain.

I've kinda settled on ARE commercial shells for my trucks as they hide the sprayer and containers from the snowflakes.


Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!
