    What about those Ute beds you can order out of Washington. Anyone have any experience with these? They have a rear slide out drawer that's pretty cool. I am not really a fan of polished aluminum though. Might be OK if I got the sides and the bed surface bed lined, but there goes weight savings, plus I didn't build it myself.

    A guy on here has the bed but not the canopy. Full aluminum construction so weight couldn’t be huge

    That’s when you need to weigh your options, your a builder so you should have a good understanding of what material and hardware to use for your needs

    Dave, I lived in ft Collins for 3 years, flew helicopters based out of there, however I was mostly always gone on contracts. Owned a gray 4 door f350 at the time. I slowed way down on flying, got burned out. Downgraded to my current toyota to focus more on off roading and outdoors exploring.

    Or UHMWPE top sheet, lightweight but will reasonably keep the aluminum from damage
