MG and Badmember, please don't misunderstand me or think that I'm bad mouthing them, I'm not and wasn't. I did compliment the old ones - really could take a beating and were made to. However, the new ones are definately out of my price range, and again, the 8' beds on my pickups are often too small as it is to do the job. Just a fact is all.

For my needs, just not practical, but then again, neither are Blazers or Suburbans, even when they were "real utility vehicals", long before they became "cutesee sportee utilitee veehicals".
