 LOL LOL

Very nice set up!  I imagine that it costs a fortune though?  Also, I wonder how your truck would handle with that much weight up high?

Personally I think I'd want some heavy duty suspension on my truck before I tried that. I've been considering a setup like this for my next truck which I'm almost certain will be a 3/4 ton something. This would be ideal if you had a plain jane pull behind camper. Perfect way to take it all with you.

Yeah you could!!!, park one on the roof of your truck sideways and 2 on the rack andyour ready to go!!

LOL LOL

It is $1,299.00 for a short box version and $1,399.00 for a long bog version....
Pricing is a little high for what your getting... but as with anything the guy does have design and engineering time into it...
I would think it has about 150 to 200 worth of steel in it and a good welder could have it done in a few hours....
As for the truck... I think a 3/4 truck would be needed at a minimum, especially if your gonna tow a camper at the same time....

Definetely want 3/4 ton.  I could see my 1/2 ton GMC leaning right over any time you went around any bend in the road.  Big load on the rears as well, if you have two utility quads and gear up there.

I saw those in a dennis kirk catalog a while back. Thought it was pritty cool but I don't know about ramping it up that high though lol. Might end up launching it over the truck. Especialy if the throttle stuck like it did when GW and I went to PA this past March.
