    What do you mean when you say your truck is "2.5"?

    I finished up this DIY bed shelf. I was trying to think of a way to store more gear and separate camp/ truck gear from personal/ everyday gear for a few up comming trips with 4 people in the truck.

    Heres what i came up with.

    0C1434E8-56AF-4D93-85B4-C614EC753AE4.jpg BE1CCAF5-AD31-43A2-BD2E-1B516786FF0D.jpg 22832EA4-BC15-4C51-9820-84F9F5137DA4.jpg
    Now no climbing on the tire to grab something out of the windoor or opening up the tire gate-hatch-tailgate to reach in and grab something that has shifted. Also the space underneath is exactly tall enough to store jerry cans underneath.

    Next up add some led rock lights inside that come on when either windoor is opened.

    My truck was a gift from my dad, purchased brand new in September 2009, and I only put about 7,500 miles on it in the first year of ownership. By the end of 2013 I had like 31K miles. In late 2014, I got a job that required me to drive (not far, just often). By July 2015, it hit 50K.

    If I don't sell my RC and buy a 2018 or 2019 Taco, I expect to hit 100K before the end of 2019!

    Buy yourself a cheap blue tarp (or silver) and lay it down to crawl around on . A piece of large cardboard also to lay on works well also . I know how you feel thou about not having a garage lol
