The best flat bed out there is the one that you build your self , When i went from a pickup to a one ton 4X4 i looked at all that was offered and everyone of them in my opinion was overpriced cheap junk SO i took a tape massure and did some massuren of the truck as far as widht of outside of frame rails left 4 inches from the back of the cab and massured to the end of the frame and also to the center of the axel then to the outside of the tires then addeda couple inches past each side of the tires went home set up the drafting table put down a sheet of drafting paper and made up a scale and drew out just what i wanted then started figuren out the list of steel and i wanted a wood deck so things did not slide around figured out just how to inclose all lites and wires made the gooseneck hitch as part of the bed with a chain box in the gooseneck well and went to building got a lot of comments on how nice it turned out even got stopped by a state cop one nite so he could look it over and asked just where he could get one like it . the down side of my bed building is that it was built like a tank heavy but it sure made that oneton ride nice and realy helped on bad roads would i change anything if i do it again yep the next time i'll use all LED lites instead of the sealed truck lites in the ten years that i had the other truck i had one lite go out no salt eaten wires and after ten years the paint was just starten to flake off .
