    That looks great, but I am curious about what sort of mat you have going on in the bed?

    That's the OEM Taco bed mat. It only cost me $32,320, but I convinced the dealer to throw in a new truck with it....

    Nice! I like the way that it leaves you a place for your front wheels.

    I ended up going with the locking RockyMounts that mount to the bed rails:

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PT5WU8/ref=ox_ya_os_product_refresh_T1

    I used it for the first time today and it seemed to work well. I'm still a little leery about having the handlebars up in the wind -- one of the things that I like about your setup Del Scorcho is how it gets them a little lower -- but no problems so far.

    Those are pretty solid. Way better than what I was using before. I just cut a plate for a QR and attached it to one of the bed rail mounts.

    It was small and easy use, but there was a lot of side to side play when turning or driving over uneven road. I live near the ocean and never had a problem with the controls being up in the wind. Never had any corrosion issues. I'm sure over long term cables and shifters might need some lube. But if you take good care of your stuff all that should be a non-issue.
