Easy Installation For "Old School" Carpet Kit For Pickups

Kevin, owner of Vaca Valley Truck & SUV shows us the "old school" carpet kit that was very popular in the 1970s and has become popular again for a new generation of pickup truck owners. In this video, with the help of Doug, Kevin talks us through the incredibly simple installation of the carpet kit package and then also converting it into a sleeping area. There are so many useful features that it is easy to see how these were popular and in the last couple of years, Vaca Valley Truck & SUV has sold quite a number of these carpet kits. In fact, they can ship all across the country.

you should have also shown the way the small board can be put in at an angle and turned into a chair with the small at 45 degrees and the large board down. Back when there were drive inns, I use to set up that way for the movie. Brings back memories. great kits

[@T12i99iN]

This is great. I grew up as 80s kid and i remember trucks having this type of stuff in the bed.

[@mikerossscuba]

Used to have one in my Toyota Tacoma. Great for taking a nap or sleeping the whole night (with a sleeping bag). Just got a new one for my F150 from Vaca Valley Truck and love it.

I would like to have one! I haven't seen this in over 15yr. love it back in the day.

[@vanishingpoint5248]

Had one of these back in the day, certainly a economic alternative to some I’ve seen, guys an hour or so away so I’m gonna go check them out!

[@kevincolleran5088]

Bought one here last fall. Great product, wished I found this place sooner.

How is it driving around? Just wondering if it shakes and moves around since the video doesn't show it being secured to the bed.

[@marcelstjean]

Where did you get it?

[@hakoda1]

nobody ever shows how these turn into a nice little seat area by propping the short floor up in the gap on the rails! These are great though, #oldschoolcool

Hi I used to have one this carpet kit set on my 1988 mazda b2200. Do you still make them.

[@omarworldpeace]

[@someparts]

[@elekt]

What is the price on this for a 2010 tacoma?

[@mikemadden914]

elekt I just got one for a GMC Sierra for 500 ish. Head over to his website and pick up the phone and give him a call

[@garycramer2532]

Whats the name of the website, seemed kind of garbled ??

[@haroldrull4943]

How much for a Toyota Tacoma with a 5ft bed, just like this design on video is good.

[@Daner949]

I have a 4 Door Tacoma with the short bed. I just received a quote for $500 for a carpet kit just like this one.

[@Daner949]

@@harveywallbanger1738 No that’s the price they quoted me for pick up. $20 extra to install. Not sure what they would charge to ship.

[@harveywallbanger1738]

@@Daner949 Thanks. I've used one of these for some 10 years of deep desert camping. It's time for a replacement. I've read that these can be truck shipped and have emailed asking for delivered prices... but no response at all.

[@Daner949]

@@harveywallbanger1738 There are multiple locations to pick up from near San Diego & LA. Ima make the drive to pick one up. But now I’m watching videos on how to build one myself. So I’m on the fence.
