Truck bed build using plastic pallets?

Not that I’ve ever seen. He’s all over FB

Is that a new machine @Grizz ? Sure looks it.

That was when i first got it. It looks like crap now :joy::joy::joy: I was running a truck bed build. Then i ran out of room quick had to go to trailer. This year ill be running both. Getting sick of hooking trailer up to go wash a small drive or house. Maybe i need one of those electric jacks like rick has.

Just need to convert to the van life like I did lol! Hop in, take off, and park anywhere you want.

That would be nice. The main reason i went to a trailer was security because the truck was all i had to drive and i was constantly worried about parking my truck anywhere for long.

I can understand that. Back in the day when I was a 1099 for a couple paint companies, I use to haul all my equipment around in the back of a Jeep Cherokee. Someone broke out the vent window and unlocked it n stole everything in a grocery store parking lot. In the daylight. Everything in my van is bolted down now. Anyone tries taking my equipment again, they gotta work for it.

I know it’s not a great setup for someone doing this full time but this is what I do. Since windows/gutters are %70 of my business and the other 30 is housewash/roofs i put everything on pallets that I can lift in and out easily. I was given a fork lift by a friend so I can just lift it out easily to switch between roofs and house wash. Since my truck is small I can’t fit both in at the same time

Man im in love with your truck. Forget the wrap and all the equipment. That is a clean looking tacoma. What year is that thing. Those are my favorite trucks in the entire world. The ‘95-‘97 body style were the best. Let me know if you’re ever selling it. I’m serious

Thanks man! I feel the same way. They are the only fleet vehicles I want. It’s actually a 97 with still about 123,000 miles. I some how found a one owner truck with about 92,000 miles on it about 4 years ago. Pretty much garage kept the whole time. Got it for $8,500. It would be so hard to find one now for that I think. It was right before the market went back up like it is now

Great setup, nice and basic just how it should be :+1:

8500!!! You cant find one of those in decent shape with less than 200k miles for 8500. And it’s a 97. My first tacoma was a 95 and i get so nostalgic when i see one of those is that configuration. That grill and those 6 spoke wheels have a soft place in my heart. Thanks for the pics. And im serious on buying it if you need to sell it because you’re up grading or whatever
