    I haven't made 50 posts yet (awfully high threshhold) so can't post in the for sale forum, but this is free.

    I made this for my (now sold) 2009 short bed as I'm 6'2" and wanted to sleep comfortably. The framing is redwood, so should last a long time and is lightweight enough to load/unload with 1 person. It slides into the truck up to the rear of the rear wheel wells for storage while driving, then extends on top of the lift gate for comfortable sleeping while stationary. There are minimal gaps on the sides and top with the camper shell door down.

    $200 in materials and about 8 hours of work. First one to drive to Torrance and pick it up gets it for free.
