15 COOL INVENTIONS FOR A PICKUP TRUCK

[@leerusch7392]

[@fishhead680]

They do - it’s called a matchbox

[@turbopokey]

Those Japanese kei trucks that can only be imported after 25 years come pretty close to that. Just gotta drive on the British side of the vehicle. I really think the Daihatsu Midget 2 is pretty cool but I’m not sure if I could fit in one.

[@wurly164]

I keep a simple wooden stepstool in my truck to get into the bed, it was like $20.00. Used the same one in 3 different trucks

[@jeffthornton6998]

Never thought of that. Thanks.

[@OneWildTurkey]

I bought 1 about 35 years ago when the price was only $5 at the local 5 & dime. It still works great after getting my 4th pickup truck.

[@cheeseheadfiddle]

Drywall bucket!

[@robertbevins5961]

Fingers crossed that the plastic fold up stool I use has that lifespan.

[@bigdan827_8]

Yeah, I have a milk crate that works great for that. It has also found its way into several of my trucks over the past 20 years.

[@brucemartini2288]

when i was a kid it was just easy to step on tire and into truck bed. i miss those days

[@elbowroom7993]

I still do that in my 70s. You need a simple flexibility exercise routine.

[@smokeinapeterbilt]

God, how did we get by for all these decades without all this fancy gear

[@KA-zq3yp]

I love my bed rug. Had it on my last 2 trucks and I’d never have another without it. I load dirt bikes, haul furniture, sit on it at camp fires. Beyond amazing. Soft on the knees, makes the bed flat, things don’t slide around or get scratched. I just hose it off or blow it clean with a leaf blower and it looks like the day I bought it. Great product.

[@Grimmsha72]

I'm just curious, where are you putting loads that need to stay dry then after it rains and that rug is soaked?

[@KA-zq3yp]

@@Grimmsha72 I have a hard, roll up tonneau cover. My bed rug covers the tailgate and bottom, not the sides. I don’t see the need for the sides and this I can easily remove if I need to but never have. Great thing as well is it keeps dust from getting up into the box from above the tail gate. I put luggage and bedding back there and drive on gravel roads and have almost zero dust or water. It’s like having a massive trunk.

[@garyr4211]

I had a bedrug bed liner and the rollers from the automatic car wash damaged it. Best to have a cover if you get the bedrug liner.

[@ralphcantrell3214]

It's a crying shame that standard work trucks are now so high off the ground you need a freaking built-in ladder to access the bed.

[@politerudeboi6898]

i just climb on the tire

[@ralphcantrell3214]

@@politerudeboi6898 Well, I made a living out of standard work trucks for over 30 years, and I remember when you could just reach in and get what you needed out of one, or even just step up into the bed of one from the ground. Right before I retired, the new ones were requiring you to use a step ladder just to get something out of the tool box behind the cab. It's a crazy world.

[@politerudeboi6898]

[@RichSobocinski]

Those truck tails are a great idea, but they need to be lockable and include an option for bolted installation

My truck with a cab high camper shell has the Bedrug installed inside and its an awesome product. It matches the gray carpet on the inside of the shell too. Makes it nice to sleep on or hauling items without them sliding around. If it gets dirty, you can rinse it out or even vacuum it.

[@thisoldsaw5438]

Cool In the 70’s these vehicles were called vans

[@beemerscoot8851]

I call these new vehicles station wagons. Trucks have two doors and can haul an entire bedroom set in one trip.

[@jerrybanley7695]

My dad always had a couple short 2x2’s in the stake pockets of his truck bed. We called them the “multi purpose tools”. And they were! Used them for anchor points, Jack blocks, strap corner guards, and a hammer in a pinch. Every new truck he got wasn’t complete until he “installed” a couple multi purpose tools.

[@spercwolf2985]

Why would you carpet your truck bed? Rhino liner is sooooo much better and prevents rust as well as trys to prevent damage to the bed itself.

The toolbox with the ladder is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen. So you buy a box that takes up room in your trucks bed to carry around a ladder to get into the box that barely has room for the ladder itself, brilliant!

[@YCIGAFSN]

The prices of everything is insane: except for those spoiler boxes; which look ridiculous. A folding step for $500 and can't hold more than 300 pounds? You can DIY one that can hold three times that weight easy and weigh about the same for under $50 in materials (retail) and about 30 to 45 minutes or so. I know, I made one similar for a friend's Toyota a few months ago. Stores in the side and you attach it to the tailgate to use when needed.

For a very tiny number of people, maybe. Running an auxiliary charge lead to the truck's electrical system would cost under 1% of what the panels do and give you way more power, and it could charge day or night.

[@kurtgainz]

@@DonziGT230 I'm talking about to a solar generator or battery bank. For camping and working out of the truck.

[@DonziGT230]

​@@kurtgainz After a full day in the sun they'd provide as much charging as you could generate by running the engine for a few minutes, seems fairly pointless. The company publishes the prices for all their non-solar covers, but doesn't publish the cost of these so I'm guessing they're well over $500. Then add the price of an inverter, batteries, and wiring/installation. Or you could buy a generator for under $200 that delivers more power and isn't tethered to the truck.
