    It’s handier than a shirt pocket if you actually work out of your truck.

      Camera and backup sensors can stay, the only thing that won’t work is any kind of blind spot monitoring device. The higher trim Toyota’s have that and there’s no way to integrate it, you just have to disable it in the dash.

        If you build them right, there is massive amounts of storage and tool space. The one I built for a friend has drawers down both side and tool boxes both sides and another tool box in the rear. There is 21 cubic ft. of storage just in the drawers. Here's the drawers on my welding truck. His were basically the same.

          Norstar makes some really nice beds. I have one on one of my trucks, and really like how it’s built.

            My father has one on his truck and he absolutely loves it. I doubt he will ever go back to a regular bed

              We have a flatbed on our Toyota lease truck. The only thing that is a little more of a pain is having to strap down stuff we put on it, everything else about it is great. Hauling stands, feeders, lumber, etc is a breeze.

                Thanks
                If you get one you gave to get you an yeti, not sure why but it must some kind of secret code of some sort.

                  I love mine !
                  So much easier to haul feed and cleaning blood from bed , for someone as myself it works great guiding hunts , if you Carry a lot of small stuff in your bed now that can’t be easily strapped down it may not be the best choice .

                    Have bedliner sprayed on the top and siderails, you'll be extremely surprised how much stuff stays on it

                        I have one on my megacab dually and love it. Can put anything on it and haul whatever. You would be surprised how much stuff actually doesn't fly off of it.

                            It’s not the stuff that doesn’t blow off it’s the stuff that does blow off that worries me.

                              Makes the perfect hunting pick up for us. The winch sits in a pipe welded into the bed. Just lifts out for going down the highway. Our lease is about 20 miles from the house, so we just ride over to hunt and come home. Winch the deer up on the bed and field dress them right there like it’s an operating table. Little blue jug of water to wash hands and plenty of light.

                                I absolutely love having a flatbed on my truck
                                When I had a regular factory bed everyone treated my bed as a trash can “ and I hate having to climb up into the truck to empty it out “
                                I am probably going to buy a new Ram 3500 SRW and am ordering a C&W metal frame with a treated wood deck with short side rails
