    I don't advertise. A lot of people don't know I make stuff. I'm not a customer service type of guy (read my avatar sig). Plus I don't like to put too much time into it cuz I still have a life.

    Don't really have any at the ready. No good ones anyway. Here's a shitty picture of the second rack I made:
    DSC05271.jpg


    The big thing for me is to keep the utility of my truck as a truck, so my racks have always been at least 48" wide to accommodate hauling full sheets of material on the roof if needed. That's a 50" light bar on the front of that rack to give you some perspective. Prinsu racks are about 46" (IIRC) side to side and those couple inches make a difference if you're hauling drywall. I know Tacomas aren't meant for working life, but if we can build them be better offload, why not build them to carry my shit too? I've strapped 20' pieces of trim moulding to the roof rack and a small upright I made that bolts to the bedrail at the tail end of the bed. Looks goofy, but it works for me as intended.

    My big thing right now is my take on OEM bed dividers. Instead of paying $200 for OEM, put some Ghost Shit on your truck at half the price!

    Yeah I didn't realize you made those dividers until tonight! Look really good!

    On the other hand... I think my truck looks really weird/bad with no rack

    I think if Lindsay and I move out of CA, I'll buy a TRD Pro Tundra Crew Max. The pro Tundra is barely marked up from the other models unlike tacomas and 4runners.

    Lindsay was just saying last night how she misses the old truck and liked having a truck. Then when I said I might buy a tacoma again someday, she said buy a tundra lol.
