Upgraded pick up beds

Some interesting stuff.

The bed is pretty cool, but I just despise those hideous, huge black fender flares that seem to be the rage. On the Ram they show, the flares block part of the directionals.

Unless that bed dumps I don't see the purpose

As far as I’m concerned there’s dump beds and glass sledgehammer beds. For something under the impression of built for work a pickup bed is awful. A glass sledgehammer might actually hold up better.

Surprisingly I kind of like it. Looks kind of utilitarian and military. Bling, without Bling!

When I got my first and new pickup, a 94 Dakota, I went to pick up some cut fire wood at a property my Dad owned. Plopped the piece of apple on the side rail and made a nice dent. I have hated the HD pickups ever since. Tuna Fish Can Thin Garbage! Maybe this bed is the right thing. Maybe even something worthy of being called heavy duty. My 6.6 GMC surely aint!

Looks like a Home Depot rent-by-hour truck. I like the flat bed. Hopefully the sides fold down.

I would have no use for it but it does, sort of, look cool. I can only imagine how much extra it would add to the cost of an already UBER expensive Ram Power Wagon.

I do not like the fender flares or that ridiculous raised air intake.

Around here, with our salty roads and ocean air, that's the type of body that gets installed when the pickup box rots away. The design and build vary from basic backwoods rough-sawn lumber to sophisticated steel or even aluminum. Not used to seeing that on a brand new chassis.

Don’t know what’s special about the truck. Flatbeds have been around forever. It should be possible to order a cab and chassis unit. That is done for many 3500’s that are used for work purposes.
