Okay, I'm soliciting advice and ideas on how to build up my 04 Taco for camping.
I just got the shell on (Leer) and I want to have it set up for camping by Summertime.
My last two trucks had commercial carpet kits in them (I'm sure you're all familiar with them) which were nice, but not really tailored for camping or exploring. Plus they are expensive (around $500) and I'm always looking for ways to save money.
What I need is to be able to sleep two adults in the back of the truck, and preferably also have room for basic neccessities, though they don't neccessarily need to be in the truck while we're sleeping.
The second requirement is that I have to be able to take it out pretty easily if I want to haul, say, a piece of furniture or pick up a load of gravel.
And the third requirement is that It needs to be fairly simple in design because I'm not much of a handyman. Something that is all or mostly plywood would probably work best.
I posted the same question over on the TTORA forums, and got some ideas, but I figured I'd post over here and see what the Expedition-minded drivers have come up with. One thing I hate with a passion is "reinventing the wheel" so if somebody has come up with a great solution to my dilemma, I'd love to see the results! And if you still have measurements, I'd be really grateful!
Thanks in advance for your advice and ideas!
