    Yeah I'm not sure if I wanna do that (I already have 2 of his antenna mounts!) or a different route. All of the best places I want the lights at involve a bed cage or a roll bar. :(

    With the rest of the cage on there as well. Tires turned 90* from orientation shown.

    I guess it's a lot like @MadTaco461's bed.

    Are you trying to keep the tail gate or ditch it?

    One day it'll be gone. For now it stays on board though. I hope to eventually tow camping shit out and drive the truck for fun. I'd love me that new ShittyBuilt trailer.

    Keep telling the woman she needs her own rig so she can tow a mess trailer.

    She doesn't want it for the bad gas mileage. Then she goes and looks at a jeep of many sorts. I've given up. SHe doesn't want a car as much as she wants one she can have fun in :laugh:

    :D

    I totally forgot to answer your text. Send me pics as it comes along it might be what I'm looking for. There was even a ridiclous part of me wondering what a roll bar, bed cage (hoops), carrier, and stiffeners would run even though I don't have the shocks right meow.

    Thanks for getting my backup camera back to me. Well, ill receieve it Saturday at camp and install it in the field. Hehe

    Also, I scored a free winch today. Has about 10 pulls on it and ill be replacing the Synthetic line and fairlead. I know the previous owner very well so now I have just a bit more piece of mind when I wheel alone.

    :woot:

    Tow utility trailer would be on my list to get all my camping crap out of my truck. Kinda like how I saw @goblue82 help out at his place with that trailer that had a RTT.

    Thats Victor. Hes the guy that gave me the winch. He built that trailer *almost* from scratch. Bought it for 200 bucks, scrapped the bullshit and built back to his needs. Legit

    Exactly. Either a roof top tent or a tear-drop trailer. Or both? A second one as a mess trailer for ease but either way. Especially cause we got the kid.

    I want to make mine kinda like a mini toy box hauler, but all tent style open frame. Thinking like a 6x10 box. I'm just dreaming right now.

    Hey, brotha. No need to fear of loss me. If you wanna snatch up another buyer go for it. Cash is king and when it's in front of you before the other guy then take it. You need garage space (ahem-money) so do the thang, kemosabe.

    :yawn:
