    Yes I have looked at may threads and gotten some good ideas just wondering any tips from people that have created a sleeping platform in the long bed 3rd gen.

    I plan on going all the way across (sleep two) - want to be able to take it out somewhat easily.
    Wondering about plywood thickness(es) and using possibly the indented / existing supports in the truck bed.
    Guessing 2 pieces of ply and a support in the middle.
    Not necessarily building drawers but would consider tubs under neath not waste the space. I often snowboard and have "stuff" to bring around.

    Think camping situation.


    Feel free to throw a link to other builds as well I have are cap with high roof.

    Thanks in advance for any help!
