This is a very special truck mod, sure to get positive results!
It's the "rear tinted window with middle sliding glass" truck mod!!!
Only costs $550 US !!!!
All jokes aside, I was hauling a load of oak rounds, about 4 foot diameter, and a lady cut me off on the freeway. Slammed on the brakes and one shifted, busted out the rear window. A "toyota" brand rear window exactly like the un-tinted one I had was around $800.
I found this used tinted one, toyota made, for $550 =) It cut's down on the bright light coming through the rear window while driving, and keeps the truck a little cooler on hot days.
Not that we've had any of those lately....
I liked your thread Kiwi... sorry I don't have more to offer.
Since my truck's bed is polymer, most companies don't make "headache racks" that fit it, maybe I'll post pics when I weld up my own.
Looks like we've got radically different versions of "work trucks" too Kiwi. =)
