mini truck bed converted to fit tacoma?

[Containerized]

esetter - That's a nice truck. What would you estimate the weight of that bed is vs. stock?

The Ute weighs 275lbs. I did not weigh the factory bed, they seemed similar based on carrying the two around. They are perfect for dog boxes.

I really like the Ute-bed. I'm curious what these cost for the basic setup.

These are street legal in canada.
The Suzuki Carry is the most common model
Approx. box size: 52" x 76"

That's a great pic for comparison, OutbacKamper.

The other thing I might add is that the ELF, which arguably created this segment years ago, is available with a wide range of these utility and tri-fold beds.

In fact, here in Uganda the Carry is usually referred to as an ELF (erroneously), along with any other smaller truck with a forward-control configuration.

They are street legal in WY too. Just have to have an MPV plate and your gtg

If I were to guess on the cost i'd say about $2,500.

 

[esetter]

The cost of the bed is $2800. Light kits and shipping to deep south Texas brought cost to about $3400. Odds and ends to relocate fuel fill about $20.

Care to post any pics on the fuel filler relocation?

wow the beds are pretty reasonable. I like the utility part of it. The standard truck beds leaves so much to be desired.

I'll get some pics of fuel filler up in the next few days.
