    So I am wanting to fly a American Flag, I was wondering if someone could link me to a receiver mount for a flag pole and maybe link me to a flag pole and flag made to fly? Thank you! (My Old Flag In Picture)

    I've been thinking about doing a flag pole mount on my first gen as well. Haven't really seen anything, but I have an idea. I'm wondering if my plastic factory bedliner will hold up to having two holes drilled through it One a few inches off the bottom and another 3/4 of the way up. Stick two bolts with washers on the end through (probably have to pull the bedliner back to do this) and run them through a section of PVC pipe just large enough in diameter to slide the flag pole in. (probably wooden, with two corresponding holes drilled through it so that I can run the bolts all the way through to lock it in.) The PCV pipe will be just an inch or two shorter than the height of the bed. This way, it will be easily removeable.

    I went on youtube and looked up "5$ Flagpole". Built myself my own deal using 3/4inch PVC pipe (6ft), a 90 degree metal elbow I got at lowesused for wiring, a few U-Bolts, some screws that I drilled into a spare tow hitch I had, and BOOM. Spent around 8 bucks. Looks phuckn sexy! Ran in around 80MPH in the freeway and no problems. I get a lot of compliments.
